Most of these price increases are around $50-$100, but it shows that not even Samsung is immune to the current RAM shortage and the rising costs associated with it. With more new Galaxy devices in the pipeline this year, it stands to reason that prices will likely increase.

As our own Will Sattelberg pointed out earlier this year, Buying a new phone, or really any new technology, is going to suck this year. If you’re looking to pick up a new device, buying it sooner rather than later really seems like the move right now.
