Sharp decline of Chinese smartphones in the US
Recent data shows a significant decrease in smartphone shipments from China to the US. This may be caused by deep changes in global supply chains due to high tariffs on Chinese products in the US.
According to customs data, smartphone shipments from China to the US have sharply decreased by 72% to $700 million in April - the lowest level since 2011.
Smartphone exports have become a focal point of trade disputes between China and the US, significantly affecting manufacturers who are now seeking alternative routes.
President Trump recently criticized Apple's expansion in India, urging the company to relocate iPhone production to the United States.
This tension in trade relations could lead to serious changes in market prices and affect the development of technologies in the future.
