Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

Who's exempt, who's not exempt.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast

A lot of it comes down to market predictability.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

And I think the fact that the tariffs were changing every single day, a lot of companies, especially the ones that could afford it, just decided it's worth it to just not change pricing and just wait it out and see what happens.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

And if we need to in the future, maybe we will.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

But we don't want to do this thing where we just are fluctuating our pricing like every two days.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

It's a combination of that and your ability to sustain those changing market dynamics.

Like Samsung, for example, notably does not make a ton of money from its mobile division.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

That's not its main source of money.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

Actually, probably most of its money comes from the RAM it makes for other people.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

So they're probably doing really well right now.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

And I don't think that Samsung will change its prices for its smartphones at all.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

So in a way, Carl is kind of just like, we're going to up our prices.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

Because we can't do this.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

And I think that there will be some larger companies that will be like, hey, don't speak for all of us.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

Come on.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

Come on, Carl.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

I think they're going to eat it for one more year.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

And if the memory prices are still insane next year, because the main reason the memory and storage prices are so insane right now is because of the data center explosion and like open AI buying up all of the RAM.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

So if that capacity changes next year, if either the companies that are building it build more fabs that can make more capacity, or if OpenAI just doesn't need as much next year, the prices could go back down.

Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast
Phones Will Cost More, but This Camera Is Free?

So I think it's still kind of seen as a market fluctuation.
