Maybe I am tempting fate, but I will follow the lead taken by my colleagues and provide my own projections for 2025. A multibillionaire will become a trillionaire. 2025 will be the year of AI. Steep tariffs are likely coming.
What does all this mean in the display world? An increase in the price of hardware, but what’s a bit more when adding an OLED screen? AI processing is going to make MiniLED backplane TVs even better performers against OLED TVs, so consumers will be consumed with size, opting for bigger—75 inches is the new 55 inches in TV land. Tariffs, shmariffs. No one in Europe or North America is going to be making TVs and monitors any time soon. As for that newly minted trillionaire, DM me on ideas for spending all that money.
