The first half of 2026 sent clear signals of a shift in the all-in-one LED display sector. Surveys among manufacturers show:
Roughly 80% of manufacturers reported year-on-year growth in overall shipments of all-in-one LED displays. Half of them put the growth rate above 30%, while the other half estimated growth between 10% and 30%. This growth is driven by the combined effect of four forces: supply, demand, application scenarios and overseas markets.
Around 20% of manufacturers saw flat performance or periodic market adjustments. The main reasons include blurred boundaries between mainstream sizes and engineering screens, diminishing marginal returns from price cuts, and extended procurement cycles for government and enterprise clients.
Combined with research and assessment data from leading industrial chain players, shipments of all-in-one LED displays maintained steady growth in H1 2026. This is underpinned by coordinated progress across four dimensions - supply, demand, scenarios and overseas markets - forming a solid foundation for sustained industrial expansion.
1. Falling cost thresholds open up bulk procurement
Yield rates of COB packaging technology keep improving and production processes are maturing. Meanwhile, major panel makers including BOE, TCL CSOT and HKC have ramped up capacity through large-scale entry into this segment. The industry is fully reaping the benefits of mass production, driving down BOM costs for mainstream small-and-medium-pitch all-in-one LED displays such as P1.5 and P1.8.
The sharp price decline has reshaped product positioning. All-in-one LED displays have evolved from high-barrier, custom premium engineering products into standardized commercial devices available for bulk purchase by governments and enterprises, and affordable for small and medium-sized businesses. This has effectively broken the long-standing price barrier holding back market volume growth and laid a critical foundation for large-scale market adoption.
2. Replacement of existing stock on the demand side: inflection point away from projectors in meeting spaces
Compared with traditional projectors and LCD video walls, all-in-one LED displays deliver key advantages: seamless screens, high brightness with eye-friendly performance, no requirement for darkened rooms, and consistent, sharp image quality. These strengths align closely with the needs of high-end meeting rooms in government, finance, energy, design and other sectors.
In the 100–150-inch large-format commercial display market during H1 2026, traditional projectors and LCD splicing screens faced systematic market erosion. The replacement logic of all-in-one LED displays has shifted from early niche trials and pilot deployments to industry-standard configuration. Retrofit and replacement of installed equipment has become the core base of market growth.
3. Expanding application scenarios break the ceiling of a single market segment
Meeting rooms are no longer the sole core application for all-in-one LED displays. The industry keeps expanding its application boundaries and enriching penetration channels. The products are now being deployed as standard equipment in smart classrooms, government and enterprise training rooms, brand exhibition halls, retail stores, remote collaboration offices and many other spaces.
The application model has advanced from scattered use limited to meeting rooms to full coverage across diverse industries and scenarios. This fundamentally breaks the market ceiling of relying on one single track and unlocks continuous new demand.
4. Overseas market uptick emerges as the second growth curve
Overseas markets have become the second growth engine, benefiting from the mature export of domestically standardized all-in-one LED displays. China has taken the lead in COB process upgrades, cost reduction via mass production and product standardization, delivering mature solutions featuring strong cost performance and low maintenance requirements.
Overseas markets lag China by approximately one year in technological and product iteration and entered a stock replacement window starting in 2025. Supported by mature commercial channels in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe and the Americas, plus high local labour and maintenance costs that fit the low-maintenance strengths of all-in-one LED displays, overseas demand has surged.
