The right price to pay is $299, which is what it has cost most of the time since its launch, and what you can get it for today.

Sonos products are about to get more expensive

Sonos is synonymous with premium audio gear, and soon, some of that gear will carry an even more premium price tag. Chris Welch reports for Bloomberg that Sonos plans to increase prices on at least some of its products. The reason is no surprise: tariffs. Sonos Inc. will raise prices on some products later this year, the company said Wednesday, a move that threatens to complicate its comeback attempt following a tumultuous 2024. The price increases are a response to the latest tariffs levied b

Will the iPhone 17 lineup see a price hike? Here’s what the rumors say

Trump Promised to ‘Drill, Baby, Drill.’ The New Rigs Are Nowhere to Be Found

This story originally appeared on Inside Climate News and is part of the Climate Desk collaboration. “We will drill, baby, drill,” President Donald Trump declared at his inauguration on January 20. Echoing the slogan that exemplified his energy policies during the campaign, he made his message clear: more oil and gas, lower prices, greater exports. Six months into Trump’s second term, his administration has little to show on that score. Output is ticking up, but slower than it did under the Bi

Fujifilm is raising camera prices by up to $800

And the already very expensive GFX100 II has gone from $7,499 to $8,299 — an $800 increase. Increases to lens prices appear to be somewhat more modest, with bumps in the $50 to $150 range. The price hikes come as President Donal

Why Nintendo didn’t raise the price of the Switch 2 (yet)

Just about every piece of hardware that Nintendo sells is getting a little more expensive in the US — with the exception of the Switch 2. That includes all models of the original Switch, a bunch of accessories, and even a motion-activated alarm clock. The changes were made ahead of sweeping Trump administration tariffs that are scheduled to go into effect in August, and they show Nintendo is leaning on a strategy that it has employed across its business: largely avoiding risk.

The original Nintendo Switch is about to get more expensive in the US

Nintendo has announced that the price of the original Nintendo Switch will change in the United States, citing “market conditions” as the reason for its decision. The new pricing will apply from August 3, and will affect the regular Switch, the Switch Lite and the Switch OLED , as well as select accessories for the console. Amiibo and the Alarmo alarm clock will also see price increases. The Switch 2 is not affected, nor are the prices of any games or Nintendo Switch Online memberships for Swit

You Should Get All Those Switch 2 Accessories Now Before They Get Even More Expensive

The situation surrounding Trump tariffs hasn’t eased its pressure on Nintendo. Even as the Switch 2 has become one of the fastest-selling consoles ever, the Mario maker said that select Switch 2 accessories may see price “adjustments” starting Aug 3. Not only that, but the original Switch and Switch OLED could cost more going forward. I guess we shouldn’t say we told you so, but even we didn’t expect to witness original Switch models selling for $40 or $50 more than before. In a news post, Nint

Citing “market conditions,” Nintendo hikes prices of original Switch consoles

Slowed tech progress, inflation, and global trade wars are doing a number on game console pricing this year, and the bad news keeps coming. Nintendo delayed preorders of the Switch 2 in the US and increased accessory prices, and Microsoft gave its Series S and X consoles across-the-board price hikesin May. Today, Nintendo is back for more, increasing prices on the original Switch hardware, as well as some Amiibo, the Alarmo clock, and some Switch and Switch 2 accessories. The price increases wi

Nintendo is raising the prices of its original Nintendo Switch game consoles, the company announced on Friday. The price increases, which are taking effect on August 3, are due to “market conditions,” Nintendo says.

Nintendo won’t say it’s raising Switch prices, but it’s raising Switch prices

Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR Prices for the original Nintendo Switch family of products will change in the US on August 3, 2025. The reason is attributed to market conditions in the US. Other products, like certain Switch 2 accessories, select amiibo, and the Alarmo clock, will also see price adjustments. Normally, after a new console launches, the previous system will see a price cut. It appears Nintendo is preparing to do the opposite with the original Switch. And it looks like
