It appears that Razer could be one of the tech companies adjusting their sales strategies due to Donald Trump’s tariffs. This week, some of the company’s forthcoming laptops and accessories have silently eliminated pre-order and customization options, replacing them with ‘Notify Me’ buttons instead. This change occurred shortly after news broke about the US government imposing new tariffs on various countries around the globe.
This week, I noticed a shift on several Razer product pages, such as the one for the Razer Blade 16 laptop, reported by The Verge. It appears that configuration and pre-order options have been replaced with a ‘Notify Me’ button, even on the page for their new Adjustable Laptop Stand. When reached out to for comment, Razer remained tight-lipped, stating they would update fans and customers when more information becomes available. Interestingly, the Internet Archive indicates that configuration and pre-orders were still an option as late as April 1, just before the Trump administration announced new tariffs.
It appears that Razer’s recent actions might be a result of the influence of the latest tariffs, making it one of several businesses directly affected by them. The market has experienced significant turbulence over the past week due to the unstable impact of this new economic approach, causing demonstrations not only in the U.S., but also worldwide. In addition, Nintendo has postponed pre-orders for the Nintendo Switch 2 while they assess the effects of these tariffs on their operations.
If it’s true that Razer felt the brunt of the tariffs, then other companies might face a similar fate. Keep an eye on our coverage as we delve deeper into this story and bring you more information about any potential impacts on the technology and gaming sectors.
