Huawei is getting ready to launch its next mid-ranger, the Nova 16 series, and leaks about its price have already started coming in. A new leak reveals that the cost rates of the new-generation Nova phones could be more than expected due to memory shortages.
According to the information via @FixedFocus, the Huawei Nova 16 series can see a price hike this time. And the reason behind this change will likely be the ongoing memory conflicts in the consumer market.
During the Pura 90 series launch event, the tech giant announced that future phones could face a price increase following the tight memory chip supply scenarios.

Perhaps things may begin with the Nova models. The company could revise the cost scale for the approaching mid-range phone lineup to comply with the current situation.
