VR pushes high demand for OLED panel shortage

PS VR was sold out immediately after its release on October 13th, officially ringing the global VR equipment sales drum in the second half of 2016. According to Cai Zhuoyu, wearable equipment analyst at TrendForce Research Institute (TI), the demand for general VR equipment is worth looking forward to in the next one or two years. On the contrary, the shortage of parts supply will affect general VR. The shipment of equipment, in which the supply of OLED panels is the biggest bottleneck for manufacturers to provide more inventory.

Since the VR equipment is a new product, problems in parts, assembly yield, and production capacity will occur in the initial stage of production, resulting in tight supply at the beginning of sales. Cai Zhuoyu pointed out that now whether it is HTC Vive, Oculus Rift or Sony's PS VR, the demand is hot but the capacity is seriously insufficient. In the face of the upcoming sales season in November and December, I am afraid that each family does not have enough inventory to cope with consumption. The needs of the people.

In addition to the higher demand for OLED panels due to higher-than-expected VR demand, the active introduction of OLED panels into smartphones has also significantly squeezed the supply of VR products, and the recent launch of Google’s Daydream View will further boost smartphones. With OLED panels, Tuoba estimates that the tight supply of VR equipment and components in the next 1-2 years may not be alleviated.

PS4 Pro assists, Sony is still the biggest winner in VR competition

In the face of undersupply in factories, Sony, which will start selling PS4 Pro in November, will remain the biggest winner in VR competition. With the added appeal of VR, HDR features and host revisions, Sony’s sales of consoles will hit a new high this year. It is estimated that the overall PS4 sales volume in 2016 will reach 18.4 million units, and 2017 It will grow 15.2% to 21.2 million units.

Charlene Choi pointed out that not only the function of VR can boost the sales of Sony consoles, but the performance and sales of PS4 Pro will in turn increase the motivation of consumers to purchase PS VR. For Sony, consumers are concerned with PS VR. Demand will only increase upwards, but the problem of insufficient supply of related parts and components must be addressed. In contrast, competitors such as HTC Vive and Oculus Rift not only have to face the shortage of spare parts due to shortage of parts, but also have to face the raging PS VR to seize the market, and the future test will be more severe.
