Companies such as Dell, Lenovo, Raspberry Pi, and Xiaomi are feeling the heat, reporting mounting pressure on production costs. UK-based computer maker Raspberry Pi described current cost pressures as “painful,” after it raised prices at the end of last year. Lenovo, the world’s largest PC maker, said it is stockpiling memory chips and other vital components in anticipation of prolonged supply risks. Macquarie estimates electronics prices could rise by 10% to 20% in 2026, while Nomura suggests the increase may be around 5% - if companies can cut costs elsewhere. In the short term, analysts say electronics manufacturers face a difficult choice: raise retail prices or sacrifice profit margins.
