2013 global tablet forecast
  • 2H 2012 global TFT panel market forecast

    Digitimes Research predicts there will be a total of 389 million large-sized TFT LCD panels shipped in 2H12, with 195 million in the third quarter and 194 million in the fourth quarter - with the total representing a 7.6% increase over the first half of this year.

  • Trends in the China video market

    In addition to strong potential video content demand in China, the market has developed rapidly due to government intervention and delays in establishing copyright protections.

  • 4Q12 trends in the Greater China touch panel industry
