New Delhi, Oct 12 (NationPress) OLED notebook PCs are poised for continued growth in 2026, driven by enhanced cost efficiencies and the expansion of premium offerings by various brands, as detailed in a recent report.

The introduction of Apple's OLED MacBook Pro models is anticipated to act as a significant catalyst, reinforcing the industry's transition toward high-performance and energy-efficient displays, according to Counterpoint Research.

In 2025, the growth of OLED notebook PC panels is expected to reach 9% year-on-year, paving the way for an impressive 30% increase in shipments projected for 2026.

Global shipments of notebook PC displays are forecasted to increase by 4% year-on-year in 2025, propelled by corporate upgrades, the rising adoption of AI technologies, and a slew of new product launches.

Within this sector, advanced notebook PC panels—including OLED and MiniLED technologies—are predicted to grow by 9% year-on-year, accounting for 8% of total notebook PC shipments in 2025.

David Naranjo, Associate Director at Counterpoint Research, stated, “Major brands are likely to perform robustly through 2025, as enterprise refresh activities, software upgrades, and AI integration continue to drive substantial demand.”

This implies an anticipated 9% year-on-year increase in advanced notebook PC panel shipments for 2025, marking another significant growth year for the segment, Naranjo added.

The report also highlights the resilience of the broader notebook PC display market, which is projected to grow by 8% year-on-year in Q2 2025, following a 15% increase in Q1 2025, largely due to increased shipments in preparation for potential tariff impacts.

For the entirety of 2025, the market is now expected to rise by 4% year-on-year, an upgrade from Counterpoint’s earlier prediction of just 1% growth. This revised forecast reflects the market's strong performance during the first half of 2025, which was somewhat tempered by macroeconomic and tariff-related challenges.
