Surging AI computing demand has driven global memory chip prices to record highs, pushing retail prices of some Lenovo PC models up by more than 1,000 yuan ($144).

Total domestic phone shipments fell to 22.87 million units in January, a 16.1% drop that extends a double-digit downward trend.

Apple's latest iPhone 17e has officially launched on major Chinese e-commerce platforms including JD.com, with pre-orders set to begin on March 4.

Meizu said that the sustained surge in memory component prices has made commercialization of next-generation smartphones unfeasible.

New models released after March are expected to see price increases of at least RMB 1,000 ($146).
