Anker — the popular electronics company known for its headphones,Lee Do speakers, power banks and more — has begun raising prices on its Amazon product listings amid new US tariffs. So far, over 120 of Anker's product listings have been affected. The Chinese company is one of the largest sellers on Amazon's platform.
SEE ALSO: How 'fake news' about tariffs posted on Elon Musk's X shifted trillions in the marketsSince President Trump announced massive tariffs on Chinese imports (which currently stand at 145%), those affected Anker products have seen an average price increase of 18%. This isn't the first company we've seen react strongly to the new tariffs, and it's possible it won't be the last. Just last week, gaming company Nintendo delayed preorders of the highly anticipated Switch 2 to assess the effect the tariffs would have on the new handheld console.
This story is still developing and could change in either direction, but you can expect pricing on all imported products to be volatile during this time.
