Touchscreen Chip Market Outlook 2024–2032: A Gradual Decline with -0.83% CAGR Amid Shifting Device Trends

The Touchscreen Chip Market is projected to decline from USD 20.57 billion in 2024 to USD 19.25 billion by 2032, reflecting a CAGR of -0.83%. Despite expanding applications in automotive, wearables, and industrial automation, the market faces saturation in consumer electronics and price competition.
Published 31 July 2025

The Touchscreen Chip Market, once a key driver behind the touchscreen revolution in consumer electronics, is now experiencing a subtle downturn. Valued at USD 20.75 billion in 2023, the market is expected to shrink to USD 20.57 billion in 2024 and further dip to USD 19.25 billion by 2032, indicating a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -0.83% over the forecast period.

While the demand for touchscreen interfaces continues to grow in newer segments like automotive, industrial automation, and wearables, market maturity, price erosion, and integrated SoCs are pushing chip margins down and reducing standalone touchscreen chip shipments.

Key Market Dynamics

  • Rising Demand for Touchscreens: From smartphones and tablets to ATMs and vending machines, touch interfaces have become ubiquitous, supporting consistent baseline demand for touchscreen chips.
  • Increased Adoption in Automotive and Industrial Sectors: Touchscreens are rapidly replacing physical controls in vehicles and industrial equipment, offering safer, sleeker interfaces.
  • Technological Advancements: Innovations in multi-touch, haptics, and in-cell technologies have pushed boundaries in functionality and responsiveness, enabling better user experiences.
  • Gesture-Based Interfaces Gaining Ground: The emergence of gesture, voice, and AI-assisted interfaces could potentially reduce reliance on physical touchscreens in certain environments, particularly in wearables and AR/VR.
  • Price Competition and Integration Trends: As touch functionality increasingly comes integrated into display driver ICs (TDDI), the demand for separate touchscreen controller chips is declining, affecting overall market revenue.
