Apple on Tuesday will unveil its next line-up of iPhones amid a global trade war that’s added a potential price increase to the usual intrigue surrounding the annual evolution of the product.
The new iPhones will be the first released since President Donald Trump returned to the White House and unleashed a barrage of tariffs to bring manufacturing back to the US — a crusade that has thrust Apple CEO Tim Cook into the hot seat. Regardless, the new iPhones are still expected to be made in Apple’s manufacturing hubs in China and India, much to the Trump administration’s consternation.
Both Trump and US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick have repeatedly insisted that iPhones be made in the US. It’s an unrealistic demand that analysts say would take years to pull off and would result in a doubling, or even a tripling, of the iPhone’s current average price of about $1000.
