You didn't seriously think China or Logitech was going to pay that tariff, did you? Be prepared for a LOT of stuff to cost more.

Literally no one knows how tariffs work π€¦ββοΈ
The way tariffs work is companies pass on the cost of those tariffs directly to consumers by raising their prices. THAT'S how tariffs work.
Nobody is getting "punished" by this except consumers.
Exactly. Tariffs are a "pass through cost."
So, yeah, most people know exactly how they work.
A gross oversimplification. Yay!
Logitech are fucking dead to me after the shit they pulled with the harmony remotes.
Don't @ me about the age of the hardware, it's the practice they still do today: make hardware dependant on their services, then cripple them when they feel like it. You cannot trust them
Maybe tariffs were just a way to convert what could have been corporate greed into Trumpian incompetence
My mouse is now worth 25% more?
Suck it, Bitcoin!
Should have bought all the stock during the last Black Friday.
Red dragon stuff is pretty ok, just saying.
I got secret santa'd a Red Dragon mechanical Keyboard and ended up buying a matching mouse & speakers.
I recommend them to anyone who asks.
Thanks conservatives, non-voters, and 3rd party voters.
You're reaaaaaal smart. Give yourselves a pat on the back.
Downvote for 3rd party.
Every party more is important as to not give any party full control.
You're right, red vs blue isn't the real fight, and the people can't win until they start acting against the real threat to the people.
It's sad you're being downvoted. The two party system needs to go.
Waiting for a company to loudly raise their prices.
βYEEHAW!! Lord Trump is bravely losing to the Chinese so weβre passing that loss on to YOU!β
If my company was directly impacted by Tariffs, you can bet your ass it would say "Trump Tariff surcharge" right on your invoice.

Canada price is up like the US price, unacceptable.
Because weβre physically attached to those fucking morons, our prices for everything will also go up. I hope every Canadian remembers this.
Iβm definitely gonna be doing some price research across regions and pre/post Apr 2025 before buying anything from now on. Iβm not purchasing product from companies who socializing the US tariff costs to other nations.
I hated Canada because of this relationship. I have been asking for a long time for Canada to get some backbone and not rely on the USA for everything. This is finally our time to shine.
Logitech was already overpriced and poor quality.
The fact they kept selling their flagship mouse with usb micro was appalling. And I think the only reason they moved to usbc was because of the EU. For a $200 mouse π
Wait till you discover their main racing wheel is a 25 year old design that they remove features from and raise the price with every re release. Logi is a shit company. There is 0 reason to buy any of their stuff.
Definitely profits first. I recall they hit the news because some manager said they would consider a mouse subscription service if it was possible.
They fully went on the embargo list after that one.
I own 2 of their vertical mouses
There aren't really many alternatives readily available
The hardware has gotten a lot better, but they're really not targeting the high the market anyway
I also own two vertical mices, their most expensive ones. They are built like shit and ive had to replace switches multiple times. I moved to protoarc trackball for everything but gaming. I will be replacing my logi with keychron m5 as its "premium material" has completely disintegrated in like 5 years and its just nasty.
The MX Master 2S fared better than one MX Master 3 and the 3S I got from an RMA...
The surface is already getting gummy.
My 2 g502 mice and 3 keyboards in use, one from 2004, beg to differ.
Gonna call bullshit on that one. I've been using the G502 for years and I like the feel of it. I've gone through 3 and keep a spare in box for when it starts to double click. The X has been chugging for a couple of years now, but I've used a lot of mice, I really shouldn't have to spend $80 to get a mouse that lasts more than 6 months.
Still, they absolutely want to force people to a monthly fee.
I still have my Logitech BT mouse from 2005. Still working great. Are their newer products bad?
Yeah, my old logi from pre 2010 are nice but now jts just low quality overpriced stuff with switched that constantly fail.
Google "Logitech mouse double clicking". If you don't get top of the line, good chance you'll be double clicking in 6 months of moderate use.
I hear about this a lot, but I feel like it must be a problem with newer models. I have a G502 from 2016 (pre-logo change) that gets heavy office/gaming use 8-10 hours most days and still works perfectly. The metal scroll wheel is pretty corroded though.
It's hit and miss. I was getting bad switches in Logitech mice back in 2005. The double-click problem has been around for a long time.
I'm just glad i got my computer upgraded before all this tariff shit.
Same lol. Upgraded my TV, gaming PC in Dec/Jan. Even then it was a gong show.
That's what I did. Bought new processor, graphics card, monitor OLED wide-screen, all last year. I knew this shit was coming. These pieces will last me well past this orange fuck face.
