What just happened? Industry watchers have been closely monitoring signs of rising prices in consumer technology. Thanks to research by YouTuber Cameron Dougherty, we now have clear evidence of price increases in popular PC accessories. Dougherty has done the legwork by analyzing a broad range of Logitech products, reporting price hikes of up to 25 percent on some of the company's most sought-after keyboards and mice, among other items. In his video, Dougherty raises questions about the impact of ongoing tariffs and the future affordability of tech gear in the United States. Flagship products such as the Logitech MX Master 3S mouse and the K400 Plus Wireless Touch Keyboard were among those affected. The latter increased in price from $27.99 to $34.99 – a modest $7 jump that nonetheless represents a significant 25 percent rise. Dougherty's findings also note that while some products have become more expensive, others have remained stable or even dropped in price. For instance, the G Pro X Superlight mouse dropped from $159.99 to $149.99. To verify these claims, Tom's Hardware conducted its own investigation and corroborated several of Dougherty's observations. For example, the MX Keys S keyboard is now listed at $130 on Logitech's official website, reflecting an 18 percent increase. The MX Master 3S mouse has climbed 20 percent, from $100 to $120. The K400 Plus Wireless Touch keyboard's price hike, though smaller in absolute terms, stands out for its percentage jump. Notably, these increases have not been accompanied by any public announcement from Logitech. Some items have appeared on sale at major retailers like Amazon, but the discounted prices are still higher than historical norms, suggesting a new baseline has been established. The reasons behind these changes are complex but appear to be closely tied to the turbulent tariff environment. The Trump administration's tariffs on imported goods, especially those from China, have sent ripples through the tech industry. // Related Stories Many manufacturers, including Logitech, rely heavily on Chinese production, leaving them particularly vulnerable to these policy shifts. Earlier this month, Logitech withdrew its financial forecast for the upcoming fiscal year, explicitly citing ongoing uncertainty around tariffs as a driving factor. While some tariffs have been temporarily paused, those on Chinese imports remain steep, forcing companies to navigate a landscape of unpredictable costs and supply chain disruptions. Logitech is not alone in adjusting its pricing. Other brands, such as accessory maker Anker which is based in China, have also raised prices on products like chargers, with reported increases of around 18 percent. Industry experts caution that these adjustments may not be the last, as manufacturers continue to adapt to evolving trade policies and the potential for further escalation in the U.S.-China trade dispute.
