Woofun AI reports that Apple has implemented global price increases for its Mac and iPad product lines to mitigate cost pressures stemming from a severe shortage of memory chips and storage devices, driven by the expansion of AI data centers.

The MacBook Neo starting price rose from $599 to $699, the MacBook Air from $1,099 to $1,299, and the 14-inch entry-level MacBook Pro from $1,699 to $1,999.

Additionally, the 11-inch iPad Pro increased from $999 to $1,199, while the iPad Air went from $599 to $749. iPhone prices remain unaffected by these adjustments.
