OnePlus Becomes First Casualty in Trump’s Extensive Tariff Conflict with China

Posted on 11 April 2025

President Trump continues his contentious approach to international trade, imposing significant tariffs on countries that engage in commerce with the United States. Among them, China has faced especially high tariffs, currently estimated at a staggering 145%.

This figure is somewhat ambiguous due to the fact that China’s tariffs were implemented in stages, leaving some confusion about whether recent levies are additive or replacements. These tariffs have a direct impact on consumers in the U.S.

When purchasing products manufactured in China, American customers are now confronted with substantially higher prices. A notable example of this price hike is the OnePlus Watch 3, recently relaunched by the Chinese technology company OnePlus.

Despite its initial launch price of $329.99, the price has surged to an eye-watering $499.99, reflecting a 50 percent increase largely attributed to the tariffs imposed on Chinese goods. While the revised price might not be entirely prohibitive, consumers may find it challenging to justify the expense when compared to alternatives from more established brands that offer similar or better features at lower prices.

Those interested in purchasing the OnePlus Watch 3 will have to wait until at least April 18 for availability. It is offered in two color variants, Obsidian Titanium and Emerald Titanium, and comes in a singular, 46mm size.

Unlike its usual practices of providing significant discounts, OnePlus is only offering a modest 5% discount for students or employees. However, customers still have the option to trade-in old devices to reduce the watch’s price.

Ultimately, the ongoing tariff situation continues to affect American consumers, resulting in higher prices for products like the OnePlus Watch 3.
