The world’s top four LCD suppliers for TVs will be mostly from in 2020, while the total shipment from global LCD companies is likely to fall by 8.2% to 265 million units, according to market research firm IHS Markit on Dec. 18.

IHS Markit said this would mark the first time in 10 years to witness a decline in such panel shipments, as unlike Chinese companies that will continue to ship more, South Korean suppliers will be cutting their volume.

As with BOE, CSOT is mass producing Gen-10.5 and Gen-11 LCD panels. CSOT will also be ramping up production from its first Gen-11 LCD production line, the T6, by the end of this year. The T7, which is the firm’s second Gen-11 line, is to begin mass production by 2021.

Meanwhile, Taiwan’s Innolux is expected to maintain its No.3 status, while China’s HKC will rise to the fourth-largest supplier. HKC had earlier been cited as likely to acquire the Gen-8 LCD production lines at Samsung Display’s suspended panel plant, but Samsung has chosen a different Chinese manufacturer that had no display production lines.

In terms of country, China will ship 58% of the total amount of LCD panels for TVs to reflect a jump from this year’s 47%. South Korean firms, on the other hand, are to see their shipment fall to 17% from this year’s 27%. The 17% will be smaller than the share by Taiwanese firms, which are likely to ship around 22% of the total global volume.

In recent time, China domestic companies like BOE have overtaken LCD manufacturers from Korea and Japan. For the first three quarters of 2020, China LCD companies shipped 97.01 million square meters TFT LCD. And China"s LCD display manufacturers expect to grab 70% global LCD panel shipments very soon.

BOE started LCD manufacturing in 1994, and has grown into the largest LCD manufacturers in the world. Who has the 1st generation 10.5 TFT LCD production line. BOE"s LCD products are widely used in areas like TV, monitor, mobile phone, laptop computer etc.

TianMa works on consult, design and manufacturing of LCD display. Its LCDs are used in medical, instrument, telecommunication and auto industries.

TCL CSOT (TCL China Star Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd), established in November, 2009. TCL has six LCD panel production lines commissioned, providing panels and modules for TV and mobile products. The products range from large, small & medium display panel and touch modules.

Established in 1996, Topway is a high-tech enterprise specializing in the design and manufacturing of industrial LCD module. Topway"s TFT LCD displays are known worldwide for their flexible use, reliable quality and reliable support. More than 20 years expertise coupled with longevity of LCD modules make Topway a trustworthy partner for decades. CMRC (market research institution belonged to Statistics China before) named Topway one of the top 10 LCD manufactures in China.

The Company engages in the R&D, manufacturing, and sale of LCD panels. It offers LCD panels for notebook computers, desktop computer monitors, LCD TV sets, vehicle-mounted IPC, consumer electronics products, mobile devices, tablet PCs, desktop PCs, and industrial displays.

The H6203 delivers solid performance: accurate colors, decent contrast, and reliable motion thanks to its 120 Hz panel. Its out-of-the-box picture quality isn"t the best we"ve seen this year, but with a little tweaking it can look just as good as some of Samsung"s higher-end offerings. From a pure performance standpoint, the H6203 is a fine choice at a low price.

The H6203 looks very similar to many other Samsung options this year. Narrow black bezels wrap the screen and transition into a black aluminum backplate. The wide rectangular stand provides sturdy support, but doesn"t allow the panel to swivel like in recent years. For a 2014 model, the H6203 isn"t particularly thin—offering instead a thicker, more durable-looking profile.

Overall, the H6203 provides solid performance for an edge-lit LCD TV. It doesn"t have the contrast efficacy of a full-array or plasma set, but it provides a very pleasing image nonetheless. considering its pedigrees. Just don"t mount it on the wall—the viewing angle isn"t bad, but doesn"t have the flexibility necessary for a wall-mounted display.

On the other hand, you can find the 55-inch Vizio E Series—a full-array backlit LCD TV with similar smart features—for a similar price. The E Series provides better contrast and backlight uniformity. It also struggles less with its own software, though it lacks this Samsung"s color vivacity and overall build quality.

The Samsung UN55H6203 (MSRP $1,599.99) is a performer first and foremost. The software may be sluggish and the design may bore you to tears, but the panel quality is very reliable. Time in the lab revealed accurate Rec. 709 (standard) HD colors, with a little extra in Native mode, plus decent contrast and good detail retention during motion. One small backlight blemish made dark-room viewing a bad idea, but it disappeared with a couple of lights on. The H6203 is quite bright and colorful, and with a bit of calibration can look as good as much more expensive sets. Read on to see our lab results and calibration settings.

The H6203 is a decent performer here, though we"ve seen better black levels this year. Using a standard ANSI checkerboard pattern, I measured a black level of 0.07 cd/m2 and a reference white of 170 cd/m2 . During our contrast falloff tests, I also measured black levels as deep as 0.05 cd/m2 , though only when the majority of the screen was black. This gives the H6203 an ANSI contrast ratio of 2429:1, which is decent, but falls short of some comparably priced LCDs.

Our viewing angle test measures the horizontal viewing flexibility of a TV"s screen, determining how far from head-on you can watch it before the picture becomes compromised. LCD TVs tend to struggle here, as the layout of the LCD panel and transistors behind the screen reduce the effusiveness of the backlight, resulting in blacks that get brighter and whites that get dimmer as you move into more and more obtuse off angles.

The H6203 is an average performer for an LCD, meaning it"s viewing angle is quite narrow compared to comparable plasma and OLED models. I measured a total viewing angle of 37‡, or ±18.5° from the center to either side of the screen. This is roughly the same result as comparison products from competitors LG, Panasonic, and Vizio. You can spread out a bit while you watch the H6203, but don"t plan on mounting it on a wall.

Samsung Display will stop producing LCD panels by the end of the year. The display maker currently runs two LCD production lines in South Korea and two in China, according to Reuters. Samsung tells The Verge that the decision will accelerate the company’s move towards quantum dot displays, while ZDNetreports that its future quantum dot TVs will use OLED rather than LCD panels.

The decision comes as LCD panel prices are said to be falling worldwide. Last year, Nikkei reported that Chinese competitors are ramping up production of LCD screens, even as demand for TVs weakens globally. Samsung Display isn’t the only manufacturer to have closed down LCD production lines. LG Display announced it would be ending LCD production in South Korea by the end of the 2020 as well.

Last October Samsung Display announced a five-year 13.1 trillion won (around $10.7 billion) investment in quantum dot technology for its upcoming TVs, as it shifts production away from LCDs. However, Samsung’s existing quantum dot or QLED TVs still use LCD panels behind their quantum dot layer. Samsung is also working on developing self-emissive quantum-dot diodes, which would remove the need for a separate layer.

Samsung’s investment in OLED TVs has also been reported by The Elec. The company is no stranger to OLED technology for handhelds, but it exited the large OLED panel market half a decade ago, allowing rival LG Display to dominate ever since.

Although Samsung Display says that it will be able to continue supplying its existing LCD orders through the end of the year, there are questions about what Samsung Electronics, the largest TV manufacturer in the world, will use in its LCD TVs going forward. Samsung told The Vergethat it does not expect the shutdown to affect its LCD-based QLED TV lineup. So for the near-term, nothing changes.

One alternative is that Samsung buys its LCD panels from suppliers like TCL-owned CSOT and AUO, which already supply panels for Samsung TVs. Last year The Elec reported that Samsung could close all its South Korean LCD production lines, and make up the difference with panels bought from Chinese manufacturers like CSOT, which Samsung Display has invested in.
