These Apple products may receive price hikes as Trump’s 125% China tariff remains
President Trump may have announced a 90-day tariff pause on most countries earlier today, but China isn’t one of them. In fact, the China tariff increased from 104% to 125%, effective immediately. In case you haven’t been keeping track, the China tariff started off at 20%. Then, in a matter of a week, it became 54%, then 104%, and now 125%. Impact of Trump’s tariff on China China isn’t the only country that Apple relies on for its supply chain. Vietnam, India, and some others are critical players as well. However, China remains the largest one. These made up calculations mean one thing: if you need a new Apple product, or were eyeing an upgrade – you should buy it now. There isn’t a world where Apple can afford to sell China-imported products with a 125% tariff without increasing prices to some degrees. For example, the iPhone 16 Pro 256GB costs $580 to produce, factoring in parts, testing, and final assembly. With a 125% tariff applied, the cost once it hits the US (prior to any Apple profit margin) would be around $1305. Even if Apple decided to take close to no margin, and sell the phone for $1399 – that would still be a $300 price hike from the current price point of an iPhone 16 Pro 256GB. Apple does produce a number of iPhones in India, so it’s possible that Apple shifts things around to soften the blow as much as possible. Those numbers were just to emphasize the potential severity of tariffs. So, if you need a new Apple product, I’d recommend you don’t wait around and see what the potential price impacts are. If you aren’t in a rush, don’t panic buy – this recommendation is only for those who need it.
