CTOnews.com learned that LCD smartphones accounted for 46% of sales in the domestic smartphone market in the third quarter of 2022, while the penetration rate of LCD side fingerprints was as high as 86%, up 5% from a year earlier. Side fingerprints have become the absolute main force of fingerprint recognition in China's LCD smartphone market. Mature technology and stable prices make side fingerprints maintain a stable high share in the middle and low end of the market.

Folding screen phones are also the main target market for side fingerprints. At present, major brands at home and abroad are actively releasing new folding screen phones. in the first three quarters of 2022, the sales of folding screen mobile phones in the Chinese market are growing against the trend, and the overall market share of folding screen is in the stage of rapid improvement. At present, the penetration rate of side fingerprints in folding screen mobile phones is more than 90%. With the further improvement of the permeability of the folding screen in the future, the carrying rate of side fingerprints is expected to be further improved.

Among China's mainstream smartphone brands in the third quarter of 2022, the carrying rate of side fingerprints of Glory, Xiaomi, vivo and OPPO all exceeded 50%, and the penetration rate of Xiaomi side fingerprints exceeded 60% for two consecutive years.

Overall, the off-screen fingerprint loading rate has been basically maintained at 30% in the past two years, while the post-fingerprint has faded out of the fingerprint recognition market, and most of its share has been preempted by lateral fingerprints. Since the side fingerprint became the most applied fingerprint identification technology in the second quarter of 2021, it has maintained more than 40% of the market share and continues to grow. In recent years, the continued popularity of Apple models that do not use fingerprint recognition has led to a decline in the overall penetration of fingerprint recognition, and the market of non-apple and non-folding OLED phones that off-screen fingerprints mainly rely on has been squeezed. From the point of view of the type of screen, the space utilization of the whole machine and the recognition efficiency, the side fingerprint is still the best compatibility fingerprint recognition technology in the short term. CINNO Research predicts that the loading rate of side fingerprints will increase further in the next two years, and the penetration rate is expected to reach 52% in 2024.
