This section covers the major market trends shaping the APAC Touch Screen Controllers Market according to our research experts:
Consumer Electronics is Expected to Hold the Major Share
- Consumer electronics is one of the market's most important and significant segments. The fast-paced demand from the segment for new and innovative products has seen touch screens being embraced by multiple products.
- Mobiles, wearables, tablets, laptops, and PCs are a few consumer electronic products that have adopted touch capabilities on a broader scale. Recently, products, such as washing machines, refrigerators, copiers, etc., have all been equipped with touch-enabled interfaces to offer a better consumer experience and create a differentiated demand.
- Moreover, in October 2021, Samsung launched the new 'Smart Touch Call' service, which will reduce customer wait time when they call Samsung's Customer Care to resolve their queries, allowing them to save time while managing their work and personal responsibilities from home, which seems further drive market growth.
- Furthermore, The Government of India launched the National Policy on Electronics, 2019, which aims to achieve a turnover of USD 400 by 2025. It is also aimed at the production of a billion mobile handsets by 2025, valued at USD 190 billion. In addition, India is also witnessing a surge in demand for high-end consumer electronics.
- The competition in the wearables segment is expected to grow as these devices have become more affordable. The device volume is expected to surpass the billion mark by the end of the forecast period. For instance, in April 2022, OnePlus launched its most powerful smartphone OnePlus 10 Pro 5G, in India. The smartphone is the successor to the OnePlus 9 Pro, launched in March last year. The handset is powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset with up to 12GB of RAM.
- The proliferation of advanced and more flexible devices in the market contributes to market expansion as consumers increasingly adopt these devices.
