The smart TV market is experiencing a paradigm shift as artificial intelligence becomes deeply embedded in entertainment technology. AI is no longer just a buzzword but a fundamental driver reshaping how consumers interact with their televisions, making viewing experiences more personalized, intuitive, and engaging than ever before.
For instance, Samsung introduced Vision AI Companion, a platform that brought conversational AI to household televisions. It enabled users to ask questions, receive customized recommendations, and manage tasks using natural voice commands and two-way dialogue.
Evolving entertainment needs and preferences of consumers can drive the smart TV market growth. Traditional television is no longer enough to satiate the appetite of modern audiences who seek an immersive and engaging experience. These people want to access all forms of media through a single screen and smart TVs have emerged as the ideal platform to provide a converged experience.
The proliferation of premium over-the-top (OTT) streaming platforms during pandemic has widened entertainment options. Many people shift to online streaming altogether to cut cord from expensive cable packages. Smart TV emerges as a single gateway to access increasingly popular streaming giants Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney Hotstar and more on large television screens. Seamless content discovery and integrated payment platforms boosts demand for such connected devices.
Ubiquitous high-speed connectivity across regions can drive the smart TV market growth. Fast and reliable internet penetration delivers on the promise of television experience beyond traditional broadcasts. It empowers smart features and unlocks true potential of online content viewing.

In terms of screen size, 40 to 50 inches segment is estimated to contribute the highest market share of 34.0% in 2025, owing to its optimal balance of size and affordability. This screen size category appeals to a wide range of consumers thanks to several key advantages.
From a cost perspective, 40 to 50-inch TVs strike a practical sweet spot. Their screens are large enough to deliver an immersive viewing experience but come at mid-range prices that are within financial reach for most households. As affordability is a top priority for budget-conscious buyers, the relatively low prices of these TVs help maximize their appeal.
For instance, German-based audio-video brand Blaupunkt expanded its range of smart TVs in the country with the launch of a 50-inch 4K HDR 10+ TV.
In terms of display technology, LED segment is expected to contribute the highest market share of 47% in 2025 due to its advantages for delivering high-quality images. As screen quality is a leading purchase factor, LED has cemented its status at the forefront of the display technology segment.
Relative to competing technologies, LED televisions provide superior color accuracy, brightness, and black level performance straight out of the box. Their pictures exhibit vibrant, lifelike colors and inky dark scenes without the need for extensive calibration or adjustments.
For instance, in August 2025, Blaupunkt entered the premium smart TV category in India with the launch of its new Google-powered Mini LED televisions.
In terms of operating system, android TV segment is expected to contribute the highest market share of 34.8% in 2025, owing to its extensive app ecosystem. Access to thousands of apps tailored for big-screen enjoyment has made Android OS the system of choice for smart TV fans and cord cutters.
