Tariffs are already ruining OnePlus — and the Android world as a whole

Tariffs. Perhaps you’ve heard something about them over the last few weeks. If you haven’t, I envy you tremendously and request you make space for me under the rock you’re currently living. It sounds peaceful.

There’s been a lot of talk about tariffs recently because of the Trump Administration’s back-and-forth plans of implementing them on various countries. We don’t have time to go over everything in detail, but the current setup is a 10% baseline tariff on most countries the US trades with. The real kicker, however, is a staggering 125% tariff on China — which increased to 145% while I was writing this.
