The price of PCs, smartphones and tablets is rising, due to the shortage of DRAM, flash memory, batteries and monitors. However, this is forecast to change in the near future.
According to Erensen, PC and mobile device prices may fall back, which has been a general trend for more than a decade. But some companies may choose to profit instead of discounting the price to the buyer, just as Apple did before. Prices for mobile devices and PCs may still be high, but people will get more for their money, such as devices with larger RAM, higher internal memory, and resolution screen. Bigger prize
Gartner's report says DRAM prices have doubled since 2016. A 4GB module now costs $ 25, up from $ 12.5 mid-year ago. The price per gigabyte on SSDs is rising rapidly as the price of NAND flash increases. NAND flash and DRAM prices will peak this quarter.
It is reported that DRAM and NAND flash prices are rising as providers begin to focus on providing components to device manufacturers. Apple leads the way by buying more RAM and memory for Macs, iPhones and iPads. Other vendors like Samsung stand behind, while many laptops tend to be slimmer and lighter.
In addition, virtual reality applications and gaming are driving vendors adding NAND flash and RAM to the device. A stable computer market is also driving demand for DRAM and SSD. Handheld devices, personal computers, and IoT devices also generate more data, leading to increased demand for flash memory on servers, where cloud data is stored. Analytical and machine learning also cause the need for NAND flash and memory in data centers.
The increase in demand leads to the lack of NAND flash and RAM. High demand, however, will motivate manufacturers to increase capacity in factories to produce more NAND flash and internal memory. Gartner predicts that by 2019, the market will be flooded with DRAM and NAND flash, leading to lower prices.
According to PCWorld, PC prices may fall in part a year after the price of memory and NAND flash used in SSDs starts declining. In addition, Gartner's semiconductor research firm Jon Erensen predicts prices will continue to fall sharply by 2019.
