The report tracks worldwide LCD TV shipments and revenues by brand, region, size and resolution for more than 40 different LCD TV brands.

It was the only technology to gain share sequentially rising from a 15 percent share in Q4’05 to a 17 percent share in Q1’06. Due to gains by larger sizes, LCD TV revenues grew nearly as fast as LCD TV unit shipments, rising 114 percent Y/Y while falling 12 percent Q/Q to $8.8 billion. The average diagonal rose 19 percent Y/Y and 2 percent Q/Q to 27in as larger sizes continue to become increasingly affordable.
