Acer has announced plans to raise laptop prices in the U.S. by 10% due to the economic tariffs imposed by President Trump, marking a significant shift in the market. The price hike will take effect in March 2023 and will not impact laptops that have already arrived in the country. As 80% of laptops sold in the U.S. are imported from China, this increase reflects broader implications of the tariffs. CEO Jason Chen has hinted at relocating manufacturing outside of China to mitigate costs, although this transition is complex and lengthy.
Acer has become the first laptop manufacturer to announce a price increase in the US due to President Trump's economic tariffs, with CEO stating a potential 10% rise.
Acer's price hike, starting in March, stems from a 10% tariff on imports from China, significantly affecting the majority of laptops sold in the US.
