Samsung Electronics retained its leading position in the global DRAM market during the third quarter, according to industry data released on Thursday. The South Korean chip giant claimed 38 percent of the market by revenue, a slight drop from 39 percent in the preceding quarter, according to market research firm Counterpoint Research.
Domestic rival SK hynix saw its share rise to 29 percent, gaining back some ground it had lost earlier in the year, which was a 3 percentage point increase from the previous quarter. U.S. chipmaker Micron Technology secured the third spot with a 21 percent share, followed by China's ChangXin Memory Technologies at 9 percent. Industry projections suggest that ChangXin Memory's market share could decline further as supplies of premium fourth-generation high-bandwidth memory (HBM4) chips from Korean manufacturers start in the fourth quarter.
