Apple signals price hikes as memory shortage hits iPhone, iPad, and Mac

TL;DR Summary
Apple CEO Tim Cook told The Wall Street Journal that price increases are unavoidable due to a global memory shortage, signaling RAM-driven price hikes across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. The Verge notes Apple has already raised RAM-related prices (e.g., Mac Mini starting at $799 after dropping the $599 option, and the Mac Studio RAM 512GB variant being discontinued) and analysts expect further changes; the WSJ also models the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro around $1,299.
