Nothing cancels this year’s CMF phone due to RAM prices

Nothing 因内存价格上涨取消今年 CMF 手机发布计划

Nothing’s next budget phone is the latest victim of RAMageddon. As 9to5Google reports, Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced in a post on X that a follow-up to the CMF Phone 2 Pro won’t be coming this year: Nothing 的下一款预算型手机成为了“内存危机”（RAMageddon）的最新受害者。据 9to5Google 报道，Nothing 联合创始人 Akis Evangelidis 在 X 上发文宣布，CMF Phone 2 Pro 的后续机型今年将不会发布：

“We were working on a successor but with memory prices where they are right now, we can’t build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF. As a result, we’ve decided not to launch a new CMF phone this year.” “我们原本正在研发后续机型，但鉴于目前的内存价格，我们无法在 CMF 合理的定价范围内打造出一款真正具有进步意义的手机。因此，我们决定今年不再推出新的 CMF 手机。”

Last week, Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei also said the RAM shortage has impacted the cost of the company’s mid-range phone, stating, “For Phone 4A, memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since.” According to Pei, “memory is now the most expensive component in a smartphone.” 上周，Nothing 首席执行官兼联合创始人裴宇（Carl Pei）也表示，内存短缺已经影响了该公司中端手机的成本。他指出：“对于 Phone 4A 来说，从我们决定研发该设备到正式发布期间，内存成本翻了一番。而自发布以来，成本又再次翻倍。”据裴宇称，“内存现在已成为智能手机中最昂贵的组件。”

Nothing is far from the only company facing RAM pricing challenges — earlier this week, Tim Cook announced Apple will be raising prices, saying “the situation has become unsustainable.” Nothing 远非唯一一家面临内存定价挑战的公司——本周早些时候，蒂姆·库克（Tim Cook）宣布苹果将提高产品价格，并称“目前的情况已变得不可持续”。

While there won’t be a new CMF phone this year, Evangelidis added in his post that CMF still has “several new products launching as well as some entirely new categories.” He also hinted that “the smartphone launch season at Nothing isn’t over yet.” 尽管今年不会有新的 CMF 手机，但 Evangelidis 在帖文中补充道，CMF 仍有“多款新产品即将发布，并涉及一些全新的品类”。他还暗示，“Nothing 的智能手机发布季尚未结束。”
