Today's good price will be too expensive tomorrow: managing the price of high-tech products throughout their entire life cycle

In 2025, sales of consumer electronics declined for the fourth consecutive year in France, to €30.3 billion (down 1.6%). In a market that is no longer growing, where customers compare prices across stores, websites, marketplaces, and refurbished products, constantly matching the lowest price is tantamount to letting competitors set your prices. And a fair launch price turns into costly inventory as soon as the next model is announced.

This white paper explains why pricing in the high-tech sector should be managed throughout the entire product lifecycle rather than simply chasing the lowest price: a shrinking market, prices plummeting upon the announcement of a successor model, the spiral of automatic price alignment, end-of-line markdowns, and the 30-day rule. Verified figures from 2025 to 2026 (NielsenIQ, Fevad, Kantar, IDC, UFC-Que Choisir).
