Samsung: Memory Crisis to Worsen in 2027, New Price Hikes Inevitable

Samsung predicts that the shortage and price increase of RAM will peak in 2027.

Samsung believes that the crisis in the RAM market will continue to intensify. According to the company's quarterly report, the situation will worsen in 2027, making new electronics price increases quite likely.

Microsoft recently announced a price increase for Xbox, and it was later revealed that the price of the Xbox Series X in Europe increased by 200 euros. Nintendo is preparing a similar move this autumn, and Sony is also expected to review its prices.

One of the main reasons cited is the sharp increase in component costs. Many expected the market to stabilize soon, but Samsung holds a different view.

According to the company's forecast, the memory crisis will reach an even more severe stage in 2027. Only in 2028 will the situation gradually begin to normalize, although shortages and high prices will persist for some time.
