The Trump administration released new guidance on its tariff on China, exempting electronic devices like smartphones and laptops

The White House released new guidance late Friday night on its tariff on China , exempting electronic devices such as smartphones and laptops.

The guidance could relieve some anxiety among consumers and tech giants like Apple and Microsoft , which manufacture many of their products in China .

The exemption comes after the president increased the tariffs on China in recent days in response to China ’s retaliatory tariff on U.S. goods.
