While this may disappoint some fans, it reflects the wider trend of rising costs in the handheld gaming sector.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"11\">With DRAM prices rising sharply in recent quarters and uncertainty ahead, the PlayStation 6 handheld could ultimately cost more than current estimates suggest.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"12\">The inclusion of 24 GB of RAM may put the device out of reach for many average gamers.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"13\">Other manufacturers such as Lenovo, Asus, and Valve have also raised prices for their handheld devices.
