Cipurile AI scumpesc totul: Samsung majorează prețurile cu până la 15%

Samsung Electronics has raised prices for some advanced chip manufacturing services by up to 15% due to high demand, particularly from Chinese clients. This price increase reflects the company's struggle to meet orders while also reserving capacity for its own chip production. The demand surge is partly driven by restrictions on Chinese firms accessing advanced manufacturing equipment. Despite record profits from memory chips, Samsung's foundry division has faced losses since 2022, lagging behind TSMC. The price hikes began in July, affecting various chip sizes, and may enhance Samsung's negotiating power in the market.
