Apple iPhones could become even pricier under President Trump's reciprocal tariffs on roughly 90 foreign nations, which are slated to take effect Wednesday.

In a move that threatens to raise costs on all electronics, including iPhones, the White House on Tuesday said it would follow through on a threat to enact a 104% tariff on all Chinese goods imported into the U.S. The levy will take effect Wednesday at 12:01 a.m. EST, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a press briefing Monday.

The price for the popular tech tool, which starts at $599 for the most basic model, the iPhone 16e, is poised to increase by hundreds of dollars, depending on how Apple responds to the sweeping levies. The iPhone 16 Pro 128 GB, which features Apple Intelligence, costs $999.
