TV market 2022, TCL takes advantage of the global recession
In detail, TCL's dominance over LG began to take shape in the third quarter of 2022 with 11.8% market share, ahead of Hisense at 11.6% and LG at 11%, the Korean brand then occupying the fourth place (Samsung is the leader throughout 2022). Omdia specifies that the rapid growth of Chinese brands is largely explained by the slowdown in the global TV market, 203.26 million units in 2022 against 213.54 million in 2021, a decrease of 4.8%. Indeed, the recession is irremediably leading to an ever stronger deceleration in Western countries compared to emerging countries such as China, South America and Africa where there are low-cost television sets, a sector dominated by Chinese players. .
