Samsung raises Galaxy phone prices in India for the ninth time
Back in January, Samsung hiked the prices of its smartphones in India, marking the first such increase in a very long time. The move was believed to be driven by rising memory chip prices. Since then, the company has raised smartphone prices in the country multiple times, with surging memory prices once again believed to be the reason. Now, it’s happening yet again.
