How New Tariffs Affect Device Repairs—and Why Local Repair Shops Matter More Than Ever
As the U.S. and China face growing trade tensions, the electronics repair industry is starting to feel the impact. America recently announced new tariffs on Chinese imports, including many small but important parts leveraged in phone, tablet, and gaming console repairs.
At One Hour Device Repair, we truly appreciate your trust and support. Even as the global market shifts, we’re here to continue offering quick, reliable, and affordable repair services—with no shortcuts.
What’s Changing?
The new tariffs affect many key repair parts like screens, batteries, and circuit boards. This may lead to:
- Component Costs – Parts like screens, batteries, and chips sourced from China may become more expensive.
- Shipping Timelines – Customs delays and logistics slowdowns may extend lead times for certain components.
- Inventory Strategies – Industry-wide stock adjustments may result in temporary availability issues or price shifts.
Despite those challenges, One Hour Device Repair is actively operating to lessen disruption to our clients. We’re diversifying our companies, adjusting inventory ranges proactively, and maintaining our commitment to fast, affordable repairs.
💡 Why This Could Benefit Repair—and You
While these economic shifts may increase the price of new phones and tablets, they also create a major opportunity for the repair industry. As replacement devices become more costly, more customers are choosing to repair rather than replace them.
What this means for you:
- Higher Value for Repairs – Services like screen replacements or battery swaps become a smarter, more cost-effective option.
- Faster Turnarounds – We’ve anticipated many of these changes and worked ahead to maintain fast repair times.
- Trusted Local Support – During times of supply chain instability, working with a local shop means better communication and service continuity.
