XGA-RESOLUTION MODELS GIVE BACK SHARE GAINS OF 40-49 INCH
CONSUMER PLASMA DISPLAYS DURING SECOND, THIRD QUARTERS
Finding Demonstrates Value of Analyzing Combinations of
Features and Performance
Menlo Park, CA January 5, 2004.
During the first quarter of 2003 an increasing number of
consumers opted for the better picture quality of plasma
displays in the 40-49 inch size range enabled by the increased
pixel count of XGA-resolution (1024 x 768 pixels) models.
However, since April 2003 the less expensive lower-resolution
Wide VGA (with 852 x 480 pixels) models have continued to
account for an increasing share, attracting over 55% of the
market volume in this size category through the second and
third quarters of 2003. This finding comes from true
sell-through data collected from final sellers of these
products in the monthly Reseller Tracking Service, a survey of
50 key North American retailers and resellers conducted by
Pacific Media Associates (PMA), the Menlo Park, CA market
research firm that tracks the Worldwide and Americas
large-screen display markets.
�There was a sharp increase in popularity of these XGA-resolution
models during the first quarter of 2003, following a big 2002
holiday sale of the lower-resolution models,� says Rosemary
Abowd, who directs flat panel displays research for Pacific
Media Associates, �but more recently the continuing price
declines of the Wide VGA models have resulted in their making
up for lost ground. And we believe that the 2003 holiday sales
again favored the less-costly Wide VGA models.�
�In the world of large-screen displays, size isn�t
everything,� says PMA�s president, William Coggshall. �The
whole promise of HDTV was that you could sit close enough to
the screen so that it filled most of your field of view, with
the screen�s resolution being high enough that you couldn�t
see individual pixels. With 42-inch plasma displays� being
considerably larger than those of most direct view CRT TVs,
and with relatively short viewing distances, having more
pixels with smaller sizes can deliver a perceptibly better
viewing experience.�
From the manufacturer�s standpoint, it is important to find
the �sweet spots� of the market, i.e., those combinations of
features and performance with the maximum demand. Since there
are three important different resolutions--Wide VGA, XGA, and
ALIS--possible within the 40-49 size, it is important to gauge
the demand for each combination accurately in order to match
the size and timing of demand. And to know the relative sizes
of each combination requires a relational database structure
of historical data and forecasts such as the one developed by
Pacific Media Associates that contains detailed specifications
and shipments data for thousands of large-screen display
models.
Pacific Media Associates is a market research and publishing
firm that specializes in the large-screen displays business,
covering all technologies that can produce an audience-sized
(20+ inch diagonal or larger) picture on a wall or screen from
an electronic (video or computer) signal. Their
Large-Screen Displays Industry Service currently
provides detailed worldwide quarterly updates on front
projectors and large-format flat panel display markets,
newsletters on new product announcements and other key
industry developments, and an annual survey of
North American resellers. Their monthly Large-Screen
Displays Reseller Tracking Service offers timely
tactical data on unit sales, street prices, and inventories of
front data/video projectors and large-format flat panel
displays sold by leading North American retailers and
resellers. And their two separate annual Large-Screen
Displays End-User Surveys--of organizations and of
individual consumers--explore the behavior of owners and
shoppers. Pacific Media Associates is headquartered at 1060
