Lenovo Says Memory Price Hikes Are Becoming The New Normal

The report says Lenovo told ISC 2026 attendees that the upward move in memory prices has only begun. That view is especially relevant because Lenovo is a major PC OEM with regular channel checks across DRAM and NAND Flash suppliers. According to the article, Lenovo expects memory shortages to persist even as Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron accelerate new fab construction. The implication is that planned capacity additions may not be enough to match demand, or at least not soon enough to stabilize consumer PC costs. For RamTrend, this is a strong pricing signal across client memory and storage. It directly links DRAM and NAND Flash shortages to higher consumer electronics costs, and it suggests that OEMs are preparing for a longer period of elevated component pricing rather than a brief spike.
