The latest price increases come at a time when memory costs have risen sharply across the smartphone industry. Higher memory component costs are being reported as the broader industry context behind the recent smartphone price revisions.
However, Samsung has not necessarily provided any official reason for every price change. Therefore, the connection between rising memory costs and each individual regional price revision should be viewed as reported industry context.
