TrendForce has announced that gaming monitor shipments in 2022 will face a decline for the first time since 2016, reaching only 19.8 million units, a 13% annual decrease. Tiburon expects 20.8 million gaming monitors to be shipped in 2023, an annual increase of 5%, with the following factors driving growth:
The 100Hz models adopted by some brands to replace the original 75Hz class gaming products;
Hangzhou Asian Games will be held in the third quarter of 2023, and e-sports will be one of the events;
The demand for Internet cafes is gradually recovering after the epidemic.
It is learned from the article that in 2022, gaming monitors still have the highest market share of 51% for VA liquid crystal products, followed by IPS liquid crystal products with a market share of 43.4%, and TN liquid crystal products with a market share of only about 5%.
From the refresh rate of gaming products, the highest market share in 2022 is 51.9% for 165-180Hz, followed by 32.5% for 120-160Hz, 11.7% for 200Hz, and only 3.9% for 100Hz. The market share of 165-180Hz and 100Hz products will increase more significantly in 2023, and the market share of 120-160Hz products will continue to be eroded by 165-180Hz because the price difference between 165-180Hz and 120-160Hz products is not large.
