Acer to Hike Laptop Prices in US by 10% Due to Tariffs
2025-02-18
Acer CEO Jason Chen announced a 10% price increase on its laptops in the US starting March 2025, citing upcoming tariffs imposed by the Trump administration. This increase will affect even existing stock, and while Acer is exploring alternative supply chains including US-based production, the immediate impact will be felt by consumers. Other PC manufacturers remain silent, suggesting this might be a harbinger of broader price increases across the market.
