Checked pricing on new iPhones with my carrier this morning and was stunned that they hadn't been increased. In the meantime, just waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Also, the reciprocal tariffs agreement between China, Japan and South Korea against the US pretty much guarantees smart phones will be pretty spendy once this gets rolling.

People are going to be smuggling cheaper phones across the borders like alcohol during prohibition. xD

There will be more iPhones being smuggled than fentanyl tablets, mark my words. Eggs will still win the volume stakes though, obvs.
