# CINNO Research: The adoption rate of fingerprint recognition in domestic smartphones in Q3 has increased to 84%.

> According to CINNO Research industry statistics, the penetration rate of fingerprint recognition in domestic smartphones in Q3'23 has risen to 84%. The penetration rate of under-display fingerprint recognition in OLED smartphones is 67%, ranking first. Under-display fingerprint and side fingerprint recognition have become the preferred choices for mainstream Chinese smartphone brands. Huawei, OPPO, and Honor, the three major brands, all have a fingerprint recognition rate of over 50%, while vivo and XIAOMI-W brands have a side fingerprint recognition rate of over 50% as well. The proportion of rear fingerprint recognition has dropped to 1%.

According to the industry statistics from CINNO Research, as reported by Zhitong App, the adoption rate of fingerprint recognition in domestic smartphones has increased to 84% in Q3'23, driven by the sales of popular models from Huawei and Honor.

In the third quarter of 2023, the penetration rate of OLED smartphones in the domestic market has reached 67%, with a year-on-year growth of 23% in shipments. The penetration rate of under-display fingerprint recognition in OLED smartphones has increased by approximately 7 percentage points compared to the same period last year, reaching 67%. With the increase in shipments of OLED smartphones, the adoption rate of under-display fingerprint recognition has continued to rise. In this quarter, the proportion of under-display fingerprint recognition has reached a record high of 45%, ranking first.

In the past three quarters, the average adoption rate of side-mounted fingerprint recognition has decreased by 12 percentage points compared to the same period last year, reaching 39%. In Q3'23, the shipments of OLED smartphones with side-mounted fingerprint recognition increased by 26% year-on-year, and the adoption rate also increased to 11%. Over 90% of LCD smartphones in China are equipped with side-mounted fingerprint recognition, while side-mounted fingerprint recognition in OLED smartphones is mainly targeted at the foldable smartphone market.

Overall, as rear-mounted fingerprint recognition fades out of the domestic smartphone market, under-display fingerprint recognition and side-mounted fingerprint recognition have become the two main trends in the current domestic smartphone market. The decline in sales of Apple models without fingerprint recognition has led to an overall increase in the penetration rate of fingerprint recognition.

In Q3'23, under-display fingerprint recognition and side-mounted fingerprint recognition technologies have become the preferred choices for mainstream smartphone brands in China. The adoption rate of under-display fingerprint recognition in OLED smartphones is close to 70%, with Huawei, OPPO, and Honor having a penetration rate of over 50%. Vivo and Xiaomi brands also have a side-mounted fingerprint recognition adoption rate of over 50%. In addition, the adoption rate of rear-mounted fingerprint recognition has dropped to 1%, with only Xiaomi having a penetration rate of 5%, mainly applied in mid-range and low-end models.
