Global shipments of smartphones priced below $100 fell nearly 60% in Q2 2026 compared to the previous year, driven by soaring memory costs and chipmakers prioritizing AI-related products. Chinese brand Xiaomi saw its sub-$100 smartphone share drop from 27.7% in early 2025 to just 11.2% a year later, reflecting a broader industry shift towards higher-priced devices. Memory now accounts for nearly 60% of the cost in sub-$200 phones, making low-end models less profitable and prompting manufacturers to focus on mid- to high-end segments. This trend is expected to continue as memory supply constraints ease only moderately, preventing prices from returning to earlier low levels.
