This is the fastest growing segment of the American company, which includes the HomePod column, Apple Watch smart watch and AirPods wireless headphones. All of them can rise in price if the American president decides to impose 10-percent customs duty on Chinese exports worth 200 billion dollars, according to the Financial Times in translation Lenta.ru report
Analysts of the market of smartphones and gadgets Canalys note that for Apple the accessories market is becoming more important as sales of computers, laptops and smartphones are falling, while, for example, sales of AppleWatch in the second quarter of 2018 increased by 30 percent compared to the same period last year and accounted for 3,5 million sales.
According to customs statistics, exports from China to the United States are estimated at 505,5 billion dollars, and in the opposite direction - at 129,9 billion dollars. President Donald Trump had previously declared his readiness to impose customs duties on all Chinese imports.
