Dell raises monitor prices by 3-5% for mid-to-high-end models in October

Recently, Dell has internally announced that in October 2024, we will raise the price of monitors. It will affect businesses and remote work that use Dell monitors in their daily work. It is believed that Dell will transfer internal absorbing costs. This means that the prices of monitors may increase quickly on the retail side.

Dell stops absorbing costs and passes hikes to buyers of premium monitors

This price hike is not for all Dell monitors. It is for mid-to-high-end monitors. In particular, entry level products and new entry-level products are not included in this price hike for this period.

The price setting makes entry-level products relatively stable. The price hike is for mid-to-high-end monitors.

The price hike is estimated to be 3-5% for the price of mid-to-high-end monitors. The price hike may be higher (the percent) than the above average price hike for high-end monitors. This differentiated pricing shows that Dell is trying to solve the problem of cost pressure by differentiating the price hike for various monitors.

Just like the last price hike in July, Dell decided to absorb the cost. However, in this period, Dell has made a decision. Dell decided not to absorb the cost anymore and pass the cost to the supply chain. Buyers may need to face a new price for Dell mid-to-high-end monitors in the near future.
