I wouldn't worry, yet. I am annoyed, to be sure, but not worried. Yet.
If you are in US like me, there are no import taxes (or at least, they are extremely rarely, if ever[0] enforced) and (typically) very little customs delays.
I will also mention that IIRC my PinePhone said it was still somewhere else and then all of a sudden it appeared in my mailbox. So I would not take this tracking as 100% accurate. Unless things improved since then.
[0] In fact I never even heard of anyone paying them, and I have ordered probably 100s of things from AliExpress over the years, and I never personally paid any, either, so I am not even sure we even have them at all.
