Yep, I’m just as tired of writing about RAM prices as you are reading about them — the cost is indeed ludicrous, and it’s starting to hit more devices like Meta Quest 3, all PS5 models and Samsung Galaxy phones. But MediaTek’s Head of Global Sales Eric Fischer has said the company is “cautiously optimistic” that things will get better later this year.
A couple of weeks ago, I offered a light at the end of the tunnel: a market correction showing that memory prices had dropped by over 20% last month. But you’d be hard-pushed to find it with RAM still at $400 on Amazon. This is the Great Thaw of 2026, as prices are eroding at the speed of a glacier.
