Amazon’s Hardware Price Shock: Memory Costs Force Sharp Increases Across Echo, Kindle, Fire TV and eero
Amazon quietly raised prices across Echo, Fire TV, Kindle and eero devices citing sharp memory cost increases driven by AI demand. The Echo Dot jumped $30, Kindle models rose $40 or more, and Fire TV Sticks saw double-digit percentage hikes. This follows similar moves by Apple, Microsoft and Roku in a tightening chip market. The changes mark a break from the company's low-price hardware tradition.
