The global market for TVs is expected to experience further growth in 2013 following a 6% fall in shipments during 2012. This growth is expected to continue until 2017 according to some of the latest findings. The emerging markets are expected to grow by at least the same percentage as they fell in 2012, which is good news for all those within the global television industry.
The reports also indicate that 4K TV is beginning to make its mark as a significant technological advancement for the near future. 4K TV regularly displays pictures consisting of more than 8 million pixels, a figure which is four times the level of detail supplied by Full HD. This means that images displayed on 4K capable televisions can achieve a breathtaking level of clarity. Despite having already been in existence for more than 10 years, 4K TV has experienced a relatively long incubation period due to factors including high costs and the limited availability of 4K media. However global 4K TV shipments are predicted to increase in 2013 by 718,000 units when compared to figures from 2012, with further figures of 22 million units being forecast by 2017.
China remains the leading nation when it comes to purchasing 4K TVs, with low priced sets being supplied by many major domestic brand names. However with more Global TV names set to release 4K TVs by the end of the year, the market is set to expand further. North America is soon expected to become an increasingly key area in the global market, due to existing figures already conveying strong sales in other large screen TV formats. 3D television was once thought to represent the best hope of accelerating a widespread replacement for flat panel TVs. However following a relatively disappointing reaction to 3D in the home, many people are now expecting 4K TV to provide a more natural way for the industry to progress.
