According to the latest report released by market research firm CounterPoint, it is expected that the global shipment of CMOS image sensors (CIS) for mobile phones will reach 4.4 billion units by 2024, a year-on-year increase of 2%. The expected growth is mainly driven by the recovery of terminal market demand.
The report from CounterPoint further points out that although market demand has rebounded, the average number of cameras installed on each smartphone has decreased. This trend continues to suppress the demand for CIS, reflecting that there will not be a significant increase in the number of cameras in smartphone design in the short term. The focus of manufacturers is more on optimizing algorithms and other software aspects, rather than increasing hardware equipment.
CMOS image sensors are the core components of smartphone cameras, and their performance directly affects the image quality of the phone camera. In recent years, with the rapid development of the smartphone market, the demand for CMOS image sensors has also been constantly increasing. However, with the intensification of market competition, smartphone manufacturers have begun to pay more attention to software optimization to improve the shooting effect of cameras, rather than simply increasing the number of cameras.
