How many and which smartphone camera modules will be sold in 2021?

La camera of a smartphone is essential nowadays. It can be said that many users choose a mobile device exclusively for this aspect. However, sometimes, just the quality optics but many want the amount. Think that recent research has shown that average users they prefer a smartphone with 3 or 4 cameras. But having said that, how many modules will be shipped and sold this year? TrendForce he answers us with an ad hoc study.

The camera modules for smartphones in 2021 will be more than 5 billion: a disproportionate figure that tells us a lot

Clearly the increase in smartphone optics sales is a direct response to the growing attention of users for photographically performing devices. The only way to meet user needs is to propose a multi camera device. Even entry levels are equipped with more than one camera nowadays. In a report of TrendForce we see that the demand has increased over the years, starting from 2017, and that there is no sign of decreasing.

The agency says that despite the large impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on 2020 sales, shipments of smartphone camera modules are increased by 3% compared to 2019. Clearly the trend is on the rise and if it continues to be of this type, it is expected that they will be shipped this year 5.07 billion of camera modules, up 11% compared to 2020. This research, however, speaks not only of the modules themselves, but also of the type of optics.

According to the research, the resolution of the sensors is also growing. Specifically, companies are looking for 64 megapixel sensors which evidently are the ones with the best value for money. The study makes us understand well what are the preferences of users in terms of photography. The smartphone, as we said, is intended for replace the common camera. Only a niche of users will own a Reflex or a professional camera.
