Global Mobile DRAM Market Strategic Research Report

Scope of the Report

The global Mobile DRAM market size is predicted to grow from US$ 44,050 million in 2025 to US$ 155,344 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.1% from 2026 to 2032.

Mobile dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) is a type of memory specifically designed for use in mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. It provides fast and efficient storage for data that the device's processor needs to access quickly. Mobile DRAM allows for smoother multitasking, faster app loading times, and efficient power consumption in mobile devices.

In 2025, global Mobile DRAM production reached 112,573 million GB, with an average selling price of approximately USD 0.4 per GB. Production growth was supported by rising smartphone memory capacities, increasing penetration of 5G devices, and growing demand for premium handsets equipped with AI capabilities. Although global smartphone unit growth remained relatively moderate, the average DRAM content per device continued to increase, resulting in sustained bit shipment growth across the Mobile DRAM market.

Profitability improved significantly during 2024–2025 as memory suppliers benefited from industry inventory normalization and stronger demand for advanced LPDDR products. Leading manufacturers such as Samsung Electronics, SK hynix, and Micron Technology focused on higher-value LPDDR5 and LPDDR5X solutions, which helped enhance product mix and pricing. Industry gross margins generally recovered to the 30%–45% range in 2025, while advanced low-power memory products for flagship smartphones and AI-enabled devices achieved higher profitability than mainstream memory products.

Looking ahead, the Mobile DRAM market is expected to benefit from the rapid development of on-device AI, edge computing, and increasingly sophisticated mobile applications. Key trends include the transition from LPDDR4X to LPDDR5/LPDDR5X, rising adoption of 12GB–24GB memory configurations in premium smartphones, and growing demand for memory-intensive functions such as generative AI, computational photography, and immersive gaming. In addition, continuous process-node migration and advanced packaging technologies are expected to improve performance and energy efficiency, supporting long-term growth in both Mobile DRAM shipments and market value.
