Virtual Reality (VR) market faces significant challenges as headset sales dropped 10% to 6.9 million units in 2024 from 7.7 million in 2023, according to Omdia's latest research. The number of active VR headsets declined 8% to 21.9 million, with Apple Vision Pro's launch failing to revitalize the market and Meta's Quest 3S showing underwhelming sales.
VR content spending reached $904 million in 2024, projected to grow to $1.3bn by 2029, significantly lower compared to console gaming's $37.4 billion. The market outlook remains challenging, with developer interest and declining consumer engagement. Manufacturers are now shifting focus towards lightweight AR glasses with AI integration, hoping to normalize face-based spatial computing for future mass-market VR adoption.
Quantum Computing (QC) market is expected to experience significant growth in 2025, according to Omdia's analysis. Despite having over 300 vendors, the market remains nascent with revenue primarily from experimental usage. Omdia predicts a shift from experimentation to operational implementation starting 2025, marking a important turning point in vendor revenue growth.
The report highlights four key trends for 2025: transition from experimental to production use, acceleration in neutral atom qubit innovation, emergence of additional QC app stores following IBM's September 2024 launch, and increased vendor consolidation. While achieving full 'quantum advantage' remains a long-term goal, Omdia anticipates growing adoption across various applications before reaching large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computing capabilities.
OLED display shipments are projected to reach a historic milestone of over 1 billion units in 2025 for small to medium-sized displays (1-inch to 8-inch). This growth is driven by OLED's superior performance over LCD in color saturation, slimness, weight, flexibility, and contrast.
The technology's expansion is supported by Chinese manufacturers like BOE, ChinaStar, EverDisplay, Visionox, and Tianma, alongside Korean leaders Samsung Display and LG Display. Applications span across smartphones, game consoles, AR/VR/MR headsets, automotive displays, and smartwatches.
While OLED is expected to enjoy a 'golden era,' emerging technologies like Micro LED displays from manufacturers such as AUO and Tianma may eventually challenge its dominance in the market.
Programming spend is projected to grow 5.3% to reach $206 billion globally in 2025, following a challenging 2024, with North America leading at 6.7% growth. The research highlights the rising significance of Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV (FAST) platforms, with major players like Samsung TV Plus (200M monthly users), Roku (140M), and Pluto TV (80M) expanding globally.
These platforms are evolving from library content to original productions, creating new opportunities for content creators. Hardware companies like Samsung and LG are driving innovation through exclusive FAST channels and collaborations. The trend includes strategic partnerships, such as Amazon's collaboration with Samsung TV Plus for The Rings of Power, demonstrating the growing importance of original content in driving subscriptions.
