Apple raised iPad and MacBook prices as it said it could no longer absorb soaring memory and storage chip costs tied to the AI datacenter buildout. The move points to margin pressure from higher input costs and suggests AI-driven demand is spilling over into consumer electronics pricing. The news is mildly negative for Apple and potentially supportive for chip suppliers and memory/storage pricing.
