Unlike Japan consumer adoption of 4K TVs in China is expected to be relatively high, with household penetration reaching 24% in 2019. In other emerging countries, where many households either have smaller LCD TVs or CRT TVs, 4K penetration will be lower: 11% in Russia, 8% in Brazil and 2% in India.
Meanwhile, research recently revealed that by mid-2015, more Samsung 4KTV sets were sold than any other brand. Parks Associates found that the Korean CE giant accounted for 28% of 4KTV purchases made within the last 12 months to US broadband households. Of the remaining brands, 17% of consumers who purchased a 4KTV in the past year bought an LG, 13% bought a Sony, and 11% purchased a Vizio.
