Mutts are going to be paying $3000 for a phone lmao

Everyone here has come to the consensus that yes phones should cost a lot more.

this is so based

Should be 100%. I voted for this.

california pays for your phone bill if you make less than 30k a year

Trump is just saying he'll implement tarifs

Markets dumps

Trump and his buds buy the dip

ACTUALLY WE REACHED A NEGOTIATION

Market pumps and they make a profit

Its insane how the largest economy in the world is being treated like an inside trading room

I wish you and the Phones Should Cost More Party luck in the midterms.

/thread

doing the right thing is more important than short-term, petty political calculations.

also there are many dozens of cheap phones. running a political campaign on "he made phones normal people can't afford more expensive" is not a winner.

Maybe expensive phones will teach people not to buy the newest model on release every time.
Lol who am I kidding?

lol nah no one buying this shit and Trump knows it. we'll just go back to dumb phones or keep the ones we have. can also buy used phones for much cheaper.

Once again for those in the back: If your product is not profitable without the use of slave labor, then it should not exist

My phone costs 300 Euro. If you pay more than 500, you're a moron that overpays for shit features he won't use 99% of the time.

Jokes on them. I already got a new one and it's good for 5 years. Anyone who hasn't bought their cheap chink shit before the tariffs weren't paying attention and deserve to pay a stupid tax.

It's not 2010 anymore. Neither "techie" bugmen nor status obsessed whores care enough to constantly upgrade their phones.

This can't be happening

Look. I MEAN REALLY LOOK.
You need 18 lenses on your phone.

you will own nothing, goy

you don't NEED nice things, goy

eggs are undervalued, goy

destroying the value of the USD is good thing, goy

NOOOOO HOW DID JOE BIDEN GET 80 MILLION VOTES IT MAKES NO SENSE

Just make the phones in America..?

The thing about this is that making high-end phones MORE EXPENSIVE will just make them more desirable for the population who buy them for status-signaling reasons. Sales won't even drop measurably. Honestly there is no reason to concern yourself with the price of phones when doing tariffs.

this doesn't work. Mutts will just go to mexico to buy their phones in the future. I

based..... accelerate.

Like I give a shit lmao. Only people this impacts are the retards who buy a new phone every year, and I would love to see them suffer.

they still will buy it. theyll get on a payment plan

This is the thing that will make them cost $3000.

haha i'm sure they'll realize the stupid mistake was their fault and continue to vote republican in 2026 and 2028. Americans actually hate owning nice stuff and paying reasonable prices haha,

YWNBAW

Didn’t these faggots go on and on about how phones will cost “30,00.00” and now it’s down to “3,000.00” so which is it?

I'm pretty sure Trump is doing all of this for Israel. Who started the ICJ case against Israel? South Africa. Let's try and embarass him on camera. Now who's threatened to end trade with Israel? The EU. Trump is nothing but a goy puppet

How do make the people vote democrat:
Step 1. Put republicans in charge.
Step 2. That's literally it.

The phones cost like 100-200 in materials and labor costs. The reality is
they could move manufacturing to the USA and still turn huge profits, the Elites simply hate the idea of paying Americans.

People who think they need to buy the newest xyz luxury item as a status symbol to keep up with the Joneses are a special kind of retard, especially if they don't really have the money, bonus points if they buy the newest flagship phone every year. That's typical hood nigger behavior but loads of people do it, not only in the US.

I'd rather buy MADE IN USA. Not gonna lie. Samsung has factories here already. I'm sure they can build them here. Now that I satisfied my need to consume cheap Chink stuff, I look forward to buying USA made products in the future. You've had decades to buy foreign made junk. It's time to stop and take care of ourselves. Funny how when somebody actually starts doing things about some of the problems plaguing our govt and economy, those who are part of that corruption show their true colors.

iPhone faggots should be paying $15,000

the question is why it dumps with such speed and why does it pump again as if nothing happened and why can it be pulled off over and over again

Correct. Offshoring was policy not cost-related. This is why 90% of companies surveyed said they would be moving some manufacturing domestic. The policy has changed and it is actually much less headache to make your stuff nearby.

correct. average user holds onto their phones for about four to five years
the amount of users buying new phones every year have dropped to single percents

People who think they need to buy the newest xyz luxury item as a status symbol to keep up with the Joneses are a special kind of retard

true. we should tax them.

rather buy MADE IN USA

foreigners and libtards have no idea how valuable this label is about to become. I and everyone else would love to buy electronics made in America.

Fucking A. We can make the best.

the normal employed person who likes phones used to buy them every two years. this was the standard refresh cycle and phone companies, etc, built plans around it. The issue is that phones don't improve enough in two years to make it worthwhile.

good, Microsoft, Apple and Google MUST die

to help achieve that please support Aurora OS and Kvadra and other domestic production.

I'd rather buy MADE IN USA.

There are plenty of made in America brands and I bet you one ETH that you don't own any of them.

During the 2010s, Libs were all up on arms about Chinese manufacturing, suicides, etc at places like Foxconn (remember the suicide nets?). Trump reversing this will have them shidding & pessing their britches now tho.

Today's liberal is a special kind of stupid. They're not even liberal really, just drones for msm propaganda & talking points.

targeting specific companies

actual mega corps

Pretty based tbqh

Ok. I have many tho. Are you talking about stock in American companies, or actual products in my possession? The leather belt I wear everyday is made in usa. Probably by an Amish.

that label means nothing right now because policy makes it very difficult to produce quality goods in America while competing with offshore production. That is what has changed and is being changed by the tariffs. Newly spun-up manufacturing in the US is going to be much more competitive and much better.

I am not a China hater by any means but one criticism of them that is true is they're not very creative. Without western innovation they seem to run out of ideas and just end up moving things around and iterating on fundamentally the same designs.

Democrats/the left/libtards have become the political coalition of rich dilettantes and their servant class. Everyone knows it.

they could move manufacturing to the USA and still turn huge profits, the Elites simply hate the idea of paying Americans.

If you're talking about Apple, you have a point. They are an American company and they make obscene profits, they could afford to increase their presence in America. "But muh profits and shareholders" it's called hybrid costing, you still have the vast majority of your production in China or wherever you want, you have some American manufacturing as a vanity project and you can use it for PR.
If you're talking about Samsung and other foreign companies being brute forced into moving their production to the US, I obviously don't support that as a matter of principle.

based phone retards are annoying

I paid 180€ for my phone (poco x6pro) which does everything a itoddlerphone does

The push on companies like Samsung - a megacorp sponsored by the Korean government - is to edge them out of marketshare in some goods and force them to use the Japanese local production model. Samsung phones aren't their main product or the one that really matters. What the USA really wants is for them to be producing screens and other components in which they are legitimate world leaders in the united states.

This.

I have the same phone, bought it for 300 when it was pretty new because it had decent test results. I don't regret it a bit, I love China phones at that price point, you get a great bang for the buck.

trump says he'll remove mutt troops from south korea

then puts tariffs on south korea's biggest company

is he ... actually working for china?

iphones have some good features and advantages but they are not leagues ahead of others and not everyone needs their unique features. There is room for all in the market and if/when Apple helps move supply chains to USA other domestic producers will benefit.

one last pump and dump with the boys before zogmerica collapses? I can see it

Bet I won't.

mfw me and my 6 yr old phone

Not my problem

Google has staying power. They're not as innovative as they used to be, but they're still better then 90%.

neck yourself, Himey. Google is 90% an advertising company and all advertising should be destroyed.

Always a hoot to see what flags are calling others “mutts.”
