Maybe smartphone manufacturers should take a look at pricing. The higher pricing goes, the lower sales will eventually go as people reconsider replacing a working phone with a newer model.

Reducing memory production in an attempt to increase memory pricing may have a counter-affect of reducing demand as people hold off on otherwise unnecessary upgrades due to cost....it may also further increase smartphone prices, which in turn may help reduce smartphone sales.

Samsung and Apple made this bed and now they have to sleep in it. You abuse your customer and eventually they get fed up. I honestly don't care if they are losing money.
