Retro handheld maker Anbernic stops US shipments due to tariffs
Anbernic, a maker of cheap retro handhelds, has announced that it will stop shipping devices to the US from China because of tariffs.
The company, which makes a variety of emulation-focused consoles and has appeared in Engadget's"Best gaming handhelds" list, is still selling devices it's already shipped to the US while supplies last. Anbernic has long offered the option to choose which warehouse your device is shipped from as a way to avoid additional customs fees or a model being out of stock in specific region. All of this flip-flopping over trade policies was also paired with the removal of the"de minimis exemption" which allows packages shipped to the US under $800 to be duty-free, a key ingredient in cheap Amazon-alternatives like Temu and the budget products Anbernic sells.
