According to Wedbush analyst Dan Ives, moving iPhone production to the US is not only impossible, but could also increase the price of the smartphone to $3,500.<\/p>\n<p><!-- notionvc: 94d86d52-ea7b-44d3-81f5-59982937ab2c --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to\u00a0Bloomberg, Apple customers lined up to buy new iPhones, fearing the company might raise prices to offset US President Donald Trump\u2019s tariffs.
