The US government has granted an exemption to a wide range of electronics items from the heavy tariffs it has imposed on China.The exemption also covers machines used to make semiconductors, which are at the heart of everything from phones and laptops to cars.Apple imports from China, including iPhones, iPads, smartwatches, and AirTags, are now technically safe from a tariff-induced price hike.The move will also benefit products sold in the US by Samsung, HP, and Microsoft, among others.
