Apple raises prices on Macs and iPads.
Apple has raised prices on its Mac and iPad lineups, citing soaring memory and storage chip costs driven by the AI boom. This move comes as the tech industry faces a worldwide memory shortage, with Apple no longer able to absorb the increased costs.
The price hikes affect MacBooks and iPads, with some models seeing increases of up to $400. Notably, iPhone prices remain unchanged for now. As we previously reported on discounts and sales across various tech products, including Apple devices, this development marks a significant shift in the market.
What to watch next is how consumers respond to these price increases and whether other manufacturers follow suit. The AI-driven demand for memory and storage chips is likely to continue, potentially leading to further price adjustments across the industry.
