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.
Just like they put the prices without tax on the shelves, they should do that too for the tariffs. And then when you pay, there should be a line "Tariffs: +$274" above the line with tax on the ticket.
I mean you only know what you really have to pay at checkout, right? Do the same with tariffs (which are taxes) so people can really see how much they pay for them. Not next the price on the shelves.
Above the "TAX $ 110.50", have a line "TARIFF $ 56.69" on this receipt for example.
