According to DisplaySearch, total global flat-panel TV shipments in 2010 reached more than 247 million units, a 17% increase from 2009. Shipments in fourth quarter 2010 alone were more than 77.6 million units – a 15% year over-year increase. With the exception of the dwindling CRT format, most TV technologies will experience growth over the next several years. LCD TVs continue to dominate shipments worldwide accounting for at least half of all TV shipments in almost all regions. Shipments of LCD TVs will increase 13% to 215 million in 2011 from 190 million in 2010. Plasma sales are expected to remain strong while prices remain competitive with comparable LCD models and consumers in mature markets continue to focus on value and less on 3D, smart and Internet-connected models. For the first time in 2011, double-digit flat-panel TV growth in Eastern Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East and Africa will surpass single-digit rates in North America and Western Europe where higher household penetration, continuing recessionary pressures and limited price declines will affect overall demand.
