Smartphones, computers, and semiconductors have been exempted from President Donald Trump's "reciprocal" tariffs, according to updated guidance from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

According to reports, Trump had hinted at exemptions on Air Force One on Friday night, telling reporters that "there could be a couple of exceptions for obvious reasons, but I would say 10% is a floor" for tariffs.

The White House did not immediately respond to an Investopedia request for comment.
