Prices for these popular computer accessories are going up

Logitech has recently increased prices on several of its products by up to 25%, likely due to tariffs on imports from China. According to a video analysis by Cameron Dougherty (via 9to5Mac), approximately 51% of Logitech’s product lineup has been affected, with an average price hike of around 14%.

For example, the MX Master 3S mouse now costs $119.99 after a $20 increase, the Pro X TKL keyboard has gone up from $199.99 to $219.99, and the K400 Plus Wireless Touch keyboard is now priced at $34.99 after a $7 increase (a 25% jump!).

Fortunately, not all products have seen price increases—the MX Ergo mouse and the G703 gaming mouse are still priced the same. Customers may also find better deals on platforms like Amazon, which could help offset these price hikes.

These price adjustments come shortly after Logitech withdrew its financial outlook for 2026 due to “tariff uncertainty” related to President Trump’s trade policies. While the company had initially projected sales between $4.53 billion and $4.71 billion for 2026, it is maintaining its sales forecast for 2025.

Industry experts suggest that Logitech’s pricing often sets the tone for other brands, so similar price increases from competitors may be on the horizon.

In recent weeks, President Trump has implemented various tariffs globally, leading to widespread uncertainty.

Currently, China is facing substantial tariff rates from the Trump administration. The tariffs began with a 10% levy on all imports from China on February 4, 2025, which was later raised by an additional 10% on March 4.

The tariff situation has escalated significantly, with China now subject to tariffs as high as 245% on certain imports to the United States. This includes a 125% “reciprocal” tariff, a 20% tariff linked to the fentanyl crisis, and existing Section 301 tariffs ranging from 7.5% to 100% on specific products.

Unlike other countries that received a 90-day pause on tariffs exceeding the 10% baseline, China has been excluded from this relief. While imports from most other nations still face a 10% baseline tariff, China’s minimum tariff rate has been raised to 145%.
