Acer CEO says its PC prices to increase by 10 percent in response to Trump tariffs
Acer CEO Jason Chen announced a 10% price increase for laptops sold in the U.S., effective March 2025, due to new import tariffs on Chinese-made goods.
The tariffs, which take effect on February 4, 2025, will impact new shipments entering the U.S. market, while existing stock will not be affected.
Competitors such as Dell and HP are expected to implement similar price increases, with predictions ranging from 10% to 25%.
Approximately 80% of U.S. laptop imports come from China, leading to significant increases in retail prices due to the tariffs.
