Smart display mirrors are two-way mirrors with electronic displays behind the glass, showcasing various informational widgets such as weather updates, time, date, and news. These displays come in varying resolutions like UHD, FHD, and HD, and sizes categorized below 32 inches, between 32 and 52 inches, and above 52 inches. The diverse user base comprises residential, retail, automotive, healthcare, and sports and entertainment sectors.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp escalation of U.S. tariffs and resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly affecting the electrical and electronics sector. Key components such as semiconductors, display panels, and rare-earth metals crucial for batteries and motors are now facing heavy duties. Consumer electronics companies are seeing profit margins shrink, as fierce competition makes it difficult to pass on rising costs to consumers. At the same time, industrial electronics firms are experiencing project delays due to shortages of tariff-impacted parts like printed circuit boards. In response, businesses are shifting assembly operations to tariff-exempt nations, building up inventory reserves, and redesigning products to reduce reliance on restricted materials.

The smart display market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $6.18 billion in 2024 to $7.83 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rise of smart homes, evolving entertainment consumption, increased healthcare applications, gaming consoles and interfaces, energy efficiency.
The smart display market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $21.95 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 29.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to flexible and foldable displays, focus on privacy and security, environmental sustainability, advancements in haptic feedback, automotive infotainment. Major trends in the forecast period include augmented and virtual reality integration, blockchain integration, integration with ai and machine learning, wearable technology connectivity, advancements in touchscreen technology.
The forecast of 29.4% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.6% from the previous estimate for this market. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US through increased costs for touchscreen panels and voice recognition chips, primarily sourced from South Korea and Taiwan, leading to higher prices for interactive digital signage and smart home controllers. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The anticipated growth of the smart displays market is driven by the increasing number of internet users. Internet users are individuals who access the Internet via computers, mobile devices, personal digital assistants, game consoles, or digital televisions. Smart displays assist internet users by integrating the functionality of smart speakers, such as Google Home and Amazon Echo, with a touchscreen for video viewing. For instance, in 2022, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), a United Nations agency based in Switzerland, reported that global Internet penetration reached approximately 5.3 billion people, accounting for 66% of the world's population, reflecting a 6.1% increase from 2021. Consequently, the rise in the number of internet users is fueling the growth of the smart displays market.
Another contributing factor to the expansion of the smart display market is the growing residential sector. The residential sector encompasses the real estate market dedicated to private housing for individuals and families. Smart displays play a crucial role in creating connected and intelligent home environments, offering features that enhance daily living, home security, real-time information access, home automation integration, and energy consumption monitoring and control. In October 2023, the United States Census Bureau reported a substantial increase in privately owned housing units approved by building permits, reaching 1,524,000 on a seasonally adjusted yearly basis. This represents a 13.8% growth compared to the previous month, indicating a rising trend in the residential sector, contributing to the smart display market's growth.
A key trend in the smart display market is technological advancement. Major industry players are actively developing innovative products embedded with advanced technologies to strengthen their market positions.

Available in three different sizes - 85.6 inches, 74.5 inches, and 64.5 inches - these smart displays feature Sharp's precision touch and zero bonding technology. The boards deliver an intuitive Pen-on-Paper user experience, true 4K reading and writing capabilities, and a selection of smart interactive displays. This commitment to technological innovation reflects the industry's focus on delivering cutting-edge solutions to meet the evolving demands of consumers in the smart display market.
Leading companies in the smart display market are directing their focus towards innovative products like smart mirrors to drive revenue growth. Smart mirrors are technologically enhanced mirrors that offer functionalities beyond traditional reflection. For example, in February 2022, Israel-based technology company MySize Inc. introduced an AI interactive smart mirror. This smart mirror utilizes a camera to project various virtual elements onto a screen, serving as an educational and entertaining tool in public areas. Equipped with features such as gesture detection, touchpad integration, and voice recognition, customers can interact with virtual assistants and access a wide range of information and services seamlessly during their daily routines.
