According to a new report by TrendForce analysts, OLED monitor shipments are expected to reach 1.44 million by the end of 2024, representing a massive 181% year-over-year growth. This includes all OLED displays, not just ones designed for PC gaming, with Samsung and its QD-OLED panels leading the charge.

"QD-OLED monitors are set to dominate the market, driven by Samsung Display's aggressive production ramp-up and multiple brands introducing QD-OLED models," the report writes. "QD-OLED's share of total OLED monitor shipments is expected to rise from 53.5% in 2023 to 73% in 2024."

This means LG's WOLED market share is expected to decline to 26%. With that, the breakdown of the OLED monitor market share by brand is as follows:

• Samsung - 31%
• LG - 19%
• ASUS - 14%
• Dell - 14%
• MSI - 11%
• GIGABYTE - 3%
• Others - 8%

The report mentions MSI's 'aggressive' expansion of its OLED line-up, where the company is recording the highest growth rate across all categories to become the fifth-largest OLED brand. It is an impressive feat because this puts the company just behind juggernauts like ASUS and Dell.

TrendForce also notes that the 181% year-over-year growth is not a one-off anomaly but is expected to continue in the coming years. Check out Jak's recent reviews for a deeper dive into modern OLED display technology.
