MIC predicted, the ratio of TV shipment of 50 -inches above, will increase from 8 percent in 2012 to 17.2 percent in 2015. The average TV panel size of major panel makers also increased from 36.9-inch in 2012 to 41.4 inches in 2014.

Hong Chun-hui, consultant and director of MIC, said, due to the low profit of 32-inch panel products, panel makers and brand towards large-size products to chase higher profit, will cause replacement wave in the large-size TV market. MIC also estimated that the proportion of the global 40 inches above LCD TV is expected to be close to half( 49%) in 2014.

In addition, the proportion of 4K2K TV shipments next year will double to this year, from 6.2 percent to 13.3 percent.

Hong Chun-hui said that many people worry about the fast-growing production capacity in China of LCD panel may lead to an oversupply, but currently the TV brands shipments smooth. With TV size continues to expand next year, will help stabilize the panel supply and demand.

He stressed that he was optimistic about the stability of demand and supply of the LCD market in first half of next year.
