Huaxin Securities: The battle for three fold mobile phones is about to begin. Huawei MateXT Extraordinary Master has opened pre orders, and Transsion has recently announced its three fold concept phone - Phantom Ultimate 2. Its thickness can be reduced to only 11 millimeters, and the internal display screen can be expanded to 10 inches, providing a visual experience similar to that of a tablet. Samsung has initially demonstrated the concept of its three fold solution as early as 2021; Honor also has the capability to launch a three fold mobile phone at the technical level. The folding machine industry is growing rapidly, and top mobile phone manufacturers are ready to take action.
IDC: From the third quarter of 2023 to the second quarter of 2024, the year-on-year growth rates of sales volume in the Chinese folding machine market were 90%, 150%, 83%, and 105%, respectively, maintaining a high growth trend; In terms of market share, Huawei has maintained its first place with a market share of over 40% for two consecutive quarters, with market shares of 44.1% and 41.7%, respectively. With the release of new generation foldable screen products by more manufacturers and the increase of new foldable screen product lines by manufacturers such as Xiaomi, it is expected that the Chinese foldable screen mobile phone market will continue to grow rapidly in the second half of the year, and the development situation will be better than the global foldable screen mobile phone market.
CITIC Securities: "Z-shaped" folding leads a new round of hardware innovation, with a significant increase in the value of screens and hinges. Compared to the current mainstream left and right folding phones, the three fold phone not only has a significant change in folding form, but also the corresponding value of mobile phone components has increased significantly. The new folding form has significantly increased the demand for flexible OLED panels. The three fold mobile phone uses two sets of hinges to connect three shells, doubling the demand for MIM structural components for hinges.
Debon Securities: Since 2024, mainstream terminal mobile phone manufacturers have continuously expanded and iterated their foldable screen mobile phone product matrix. In the future, foldable screens will become one of the key development directions for mainstream mobile phone brands in the existing market. At present, mainstream smartphone manufacturers have basically completed the layout and iteration of their foldable screen product lines. In the future, the deep integration of AI big models and foldable screen smartphones, combined with price drops, will further stimulate the willingness to upgrade. The overall penetration rate of foldable screen smartphones is expected to grow rapidly. It is recommended to focus on the core indicators of the incremental process of folding screens, such as panels/covers, hinges, batteries, and heat dissipation.
