Steam Deck is completely [OUT OF STOCK] and Valve confirmed that the issue is memory shortage. And it's not just price, they simply can't buy any more RAM.

RAM Prices are getting lower according to Tom's Hardware. There's still a huge shortage, but people just stopped buying it anyway.

Xiaomi decided to commit suicide and bricked all of its gray import smartphones with HyperOS 3 update.
If by any chance you have a Chinese phone with global firmware (or just suspiciously affordable Xiaomi and POCO), do not update your phone. And disable automatic updates.
The phone now checks the real region and the one the device was aiming for. And locks it into an infinite loop if they don't match. Some users were able to fix the issue by quickly manually rebooting the phone over and over at least 7 times. Then it rolls back to the old system.

Surprise: Apple just decided to go lower since the hardware prices are mad. Their new baby-macbook, called Neo is based on iPhone CPU and 8GB of RAM. And starts at just $599.
1080p camera, good speakers with Dolby Atmos, 2 x USB Type-C, headphone jack, fancy colors, 16 hours of battery life. And even the screen is 2408 x 1506, which is far better than cheap laptops offer.
The RAM will be a limiting factor, but come on, $599...

You may not know, but olds remember: Intel once released x3D CPUs and it was ages before AMD. Back then the tech wasn't as good, but I was thinking to get one!
The i7-5775C has 128MB of L4 cache, that heavily improved gaming performance. Basically the same way as x3D on Ryzen. But the issue was the frequency limit — even 4770K could aim higher in some cases and Intel 6000 was already way ahead with old-fashioned L3.

RAM manufacturers started to fake 2x kits by using one real ram and one plastic filler (which can be installed and has RGB but no memory modules). Technically, it's all written on the box, but people will definitely fall for this scam.
These two are Manta DDR5 XSky and Xfinity by V-color.
