Market Overview:
The global smartphone back glass market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for smartphones and rising consumer preference for premium smartphones with better features and design. In terms of type, the 2D segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global smartphone back glass market during the forecast period, followed by 2.5D and 3D segments. The growth in demand for 3D-printed smartphones is expected to drive the growth of this segment during the forecast period. By application, IOS Smartphones are expected to hold a larger share of the global smartphone back glass market than Android Smartphones duringthe forecast period owingto their higher price tags and growing demand from consumers in developed countries such as North Americaand Europe .
Product Definition:
A smartphone back glass is a sheet of tempered glass that covers the back of a smartphone. It is typically used to protect the rear panel and camera from scratches, cracks, and other damage. While not essential, many users find it helpful in protecting their device.
2D:
2D refers to a method of displaying information to the user by using a series of images or textured surfaces which are drawn in two dimensions. 2D technology is used in various applications such as video games, movies, magazines and books.
2.5D:
2.5D technology is used in the smartphone back glass market to create a 3D effect similar to that of an actual camera lens. The 2.5D glass has a lower thickness than regular flat glass and hence creates the illusion of depth when viewed from certain angles and distances, thereby creating the 3-dimensional effect in smartphones with curved screens.
Application Insights:
In 2017, the IOS smartphones held around 78.0% of the global market share and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The high share of this application segment is attributed to the fact that most of the companies are making their first investment in R&D for developing an innovative product for this platform only. On other hand, Android smartphone holds around 21.0%of global market share and is expected to be second largest operating system behind IOS which will help new entrants in growing their base quickly. Other applications include Windows phones which have a small market share as compared to others two platforms but are still growing rapidly since Microsoft has made significant investments on mobile OS development after Windows Phone 8 disappeared from radar screen almost 5 years ago (but still exists on some markets).
Regional Analysis:
The Asia Pacific region dominated the global smartphone back glass market in 2017. The growth is attributed to the presence of a large number of manufacturers and suppliers in this region, particularly in China and India. The Chinese government has been actively encouraging domestic production through various policies such as “Make in India†initiative, which is expected to create ample opportunities for industry participants over the forecast period.
North America accounted for more than 20% share of total revenue owing to high demand from U.S.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for smartphones: The global smartphone market is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 14% during the forecast period. This would lead to an increase in demand for back glass, thereby driving the market growth.
- Technological advancements: With technological advancements, new and innovative products are being launched in the market which requires back glass for protection. This would further drive the growth of this market.
- Rising disposable income: A rise in disposable income leads to an increase in spending on luxury items such as smartphones, thereby fueling the demand for back glass globally.
- Growing awareness about phone safety: There is a growing awareness among consumers about phone safety and security which is resulting in an increased demand for shatterproof and scratch-resistant back glasses on smartphones .
