메모리 부족이 소비자 전자제품의 재가격화를 일으키고 있음

AI datacenters' explosive demand for high-margin HBM memory is reallocating DRAM supply away from consumer electronics, reversing decades of price declines in smartphones and computing devices. The oligopolistic structure of memory manufacturing (Samsung, SK Hynix, Micron controlling 90%+ supply) combined with fundamental technical barriers to scaling DRAM production (memory wall) enables rapid price escalation with minimal supply response. Beginning with budget smartphones in Africa and India, this repricing is cascading to mainstream markets, fundamentally disrupting the consumer electronics pricing model that enabled global technology access.
