into one of the most popular product types for dropshipping — phone cases.
A quick search in Google Trends shows that there’s stable demand for phone cases.But how
can you compete with brick-and-mortar retailers? Well, remember this: Each phone model requires a
unique case. And sometimes, shoppers just can’t find what they want because a store might
just not have what they’re looking for. And in-store prices for phone cases can be more
expensive than those online because retailers have to include rent and salaries in their prices.
That’s why most people buy phone cases online, where they can find any model with a
wide range of variations and designs.
In addition, these phone case covers are
generally pretty cheap and common trigger impulse purchases for online shoppers, which makes
them successful sellers for online businesses. Each year, retailers all over the world sell
1.5 billion smartphones, which means all these buyers can be your potential customers. Because
everyone needs a phone case for protection, right? So if you think about it, selling phone
covers online isn’t that bad of an idea. So what are the downfalls to selling phone
cases then? For one, the phone case market is incredibly competitive. You’ll have to compete
with offline retailers and other online stores. Secondly, customers have varying tastes, so it
takes some word to understand what customers like and what models you can specialize in
or offer to get shoppers to add to cart. But remember, with dropshipping, you don’t have
to stock up on product inventory in advance like physical retailers have to.
When you dropship, you
can source phone cases from different suppliers and change through suppliers throughout
time to see what sells and what doesn’t. This allows you to sell different styles without
committing to big preorders, minimizing your risk. If you feel unsure of what to sell, try

and see what models can become your best sellers. Let’s start with picking
the best-selling suppliers. As you can guess, iPhone cases are
extremely popular on the market. Since original Apple cases cost really a
lot, people look for cheaper alternatives. Samsung is also a popular brand, so lots
of people buy cases for these models. Huawei has also become an affordable
alternative for expensive brands, which is why you can’t neglect
cases for this brand of phone.
If you want to dropship phone cases, you need
to know what cases sell better than others. Fitted cases have proven to be the most popular
type on the market due to their sleek looks and non-bulky nature, so make sure to import these
kind of cases for a variety of phone models. Flip cases are in high demand as well
because they can protect phones from front and back. Dropshipping them is even easier since they suit all many models and
provide added front-screen privacy. Wallet cases are very similar to flip cases
except they have a pocket for credit cards. They are convenient and not bulky, and are
sought after by many who want a minimalist approach to carrying daily necessities.
Wallet cases are highly searched for on dropshipping sites, so don’t overlook this.
High-design cases are also always trendy due to their unique designs and glittery details.
They provide only back protection but come in lots of stylish variations, which makes them very
popular accessories among young girls and teens. People who want to up their phone protection
also often purchase phone bumpers. These cases cover the edges of a
phone to block scrapes and chipping. For those who are constantly in the outdoors
or want to take their phone with them while lounging in the pool, waterproof phone pouches
are a great phone case option.
Be sure to offer this super-unique phone case on your site.
Need the ultimate protection? Go for a shock-proof case. Although bulkier in size, these
cases offer greater impact-resistance in case of accidental drops or accidents. They’re a great
investment for any phone owner and are very popular, especially online, where prices tend
to be much cheaper than in-store at retailers. Young people spend a lot of time on their
phones, browsing social media, listening to musicor watching videos on YouTube. As a result,
the battery of their phones tends to quickly run out of power. That’s why battery-charger cases
are a must-have for any phone accessory retailer. A super convenient phone case
that includes a built-in charger, these cases mean less hassle with needing to
carry around a spare cord and power bank.. In this video, we discussed how to dropship
phone cases, going over pros and cons and trending phone cases types you can try selling.
