On November 6, 2026, TrendForce published a trend observation that reballed components are gaining ground fast in entry-level and budget smartphones. According to its analysis, driven by rising mobile DRAM prices, the penetration rate of reballed memory in smartphones could jump from 3–4% in 2026 to 7–9% in 2027. These figures are a forward-looking forecast (the source uses the wording 'could jump'), not an achieved result.
