According to TrendForce, a global market research firm, PC DRAM prices have shown noticeable signs of rebounding in 2013, following two years of financial losses and declining output value. The prices of mainstream products like 4GB modules rose by nearly 60%, which helped to ease the declining ASP of both server and mobile DRAM.
According to DRAMeXchange, a research division of TrendForce, 1H'May NAND Flash contract prices are gradually declining due to the persistent effects of the off-peak season.
According to DRAMeXchange, a research division of TrendForce, given the amount of price growth experienced by PC DRAM since 4Q12, first tiered DRAM suppliers are making an increased effort to slow down their migration to Mobile DRAM.
According to DRAMeXchange, a division of global research firm TrendForce, total 4Q12 revenue for the mobile DRAM industry grew 21.4% from the third quarter and reached US$2.74 billion, boosted by climbing shipments of low to mid-end smartphones as well as seasonality.
According to DRAMeXchange, a division of global research firm TrendForce, after peaking in the fourth quarter of last year, smartphone and tablet demand decreased in the first quarter of 2013.
