Huawei raises flagship smartphone prices by up to $200
Original: Huawei has raised the prices of its flagship smartphones by up to US$200, saying memory procurement costs have increased
Huawei has raised prices on its flagship smartphones by as much as US$200, citing higher memory procurement costs that have pushed up per-unit manufacturing expenses by roughly that amount. The move points to rising memory chip prices squeezing handset makers, and industry watchers are weighing whether other smartphone brands will follow with their own increases.
Why now: Rising memory chip costs are rippling through the smartphone industry, and Huawei's price hike is a visible sign of the pressure on manufacturers.
