TL;DR

Apple reportedly agreed to pay Samsung higher RAM and NAND prices starting in Q1 2027—about $2 per Gb of DRAM and $0.33 per Gb NAND, a 30–40% increase from 2026 levels. It’s unclear whether Apple will raise prices on iPhones, iPads, or Macs, but the move comes amid AI-driven data-center demand and a broader memory-chip shortage; Apple has already raised prices on many products since June.
