The global DRAM market trends are as follows:

New product launches to flourish the market

The launch of new products that contain improved capabilities have been initiated by the frontrunners in the industry. They have taken necessary steps to improve storage technology of the devices. On July 2019, Samsung announced, its mass production for the new 12Gb LPDDR5 Mobile DRAM for high end Smartphones. The newly launched 5G smartphone  belonges to flagship range and is  integrated with DRAM.
Therefore, the mass production of DRAM provides a strong boost to the market.

This series of DRAM provides data rate of 5,500 megabits per second (Mb/s), which is almost 1.3 times faster than the previous mobile memory setups. The calculation claims that when used in a 12Gb package, the LPDDR5 is capable of transferring 44GB of data, or about 12 full-HD (3.7GB-sized) movies, only in a second. The DRAM series offered by Samsung also provides 30 percent less usage of power. Therefore, the advancement of DRAM and such market strategies is expected to fuel the market demand.

Surge in adoption of electronic devices 

The electronic industry, over the period, has witnessed rapid advancement in terms of connectivity, data transfer rate, processing power and human interaction.  The technologies such as IoT and AI have revolutionized the electronic industry, due to which the demand for smartphones, PCs, laptops and other computing device has increased.. DRAM offers higher storage with faster data transfer rate while
compared to its previous counterparts. 

Increase in demand for smartphones in the consumer good industry with enhanced applications for gaming, photography, and higher data transfer rate for effective communication necessitates the use of DRAM. Accordingly, this rising demand in smartphone applications captures a considerable DRAM market share.
