Global Fingerprint Identification Chip for Mobile Phone Market, valued at USD 1.34 billion in 2026, is projected to reach USD 2.16 billion by 2034. This expansion, representing a CAGR of 7.1% during the forecast period 2026–2034, is fueled by the aggressive integration of under-display sensors in mid-range smartphones and the move toward 3D biometric security in flagship devices.

As of early 2026, the market is witnessing a technological pivot. While capacitive sensors maintain a 65% market share due to their cost-efficiency in budget devices, ultrasonic sensors are the fastest-growing segment. These chips, led by innovations from Qualcomm and Goodix, are increasingly preferred for their ability to function through wet or dirty fingers and their high resistance to 2D "spoofing" attempts.

High-Growth Segments: Under-Display and 3D Systems

The push for bezel-less, edge-to-edge displays has made Under-Display (In-screen) sensors the industry standard for new releases in 2025 and 2026.

Segment Analysis:

• By Technology Type
  • Capacitive (Dominant): The "workhorse" of the market, primarily used in side-mounted and rear-mounted configurations for affordable Android models.
  • Ultrasonic (Fastest Growth): High-end chips that create a detailed 3D map of ridges and pores. Third-generation sensors in 2026 now achieve speeds under 100ms.
  • Optical: A cost-competitive under-display solution gaining massive volume in the mid-tier smartphone segment.
• By Integration Method
  • Under-Display Sensors: Projected to see a 15.8% CAGR, as OLED substrate thinning allows for more seamless acoustic and light-based coupling.
  • Side-mounted Sensors: Remain popular in foldable phones where display real estate is dedicated to flexible panels.
• By Security Level
  • 3D Authentication Systems: Emerging as a premium solution with error rates below 0.002%, making them nearly impossible to fool with artificial prints.

Emerging Markets: The 400 Million User Opportunity

Manufacturers are shifting their focus to developing economies in Asia and Africa, where smartphone penetration is expected to add 400 million new users by 2027.

"The growth story for 2026 is geographical," states the report. "Suppliers like Shenzhen Goodix and FPC are launching cost-optimized under-display chips specifically for the sub-$200 smartphone market in India and Southeast Asia. By localizing production and forming regional partnerships, these companies are effectively moving high-end biometric security from the 'luxury' category to a baseline requirement for all mobile users."
