SourcrPhone cases from China
Buying phone cases from China is usually best when you want more styles, better materials, or lower wholesale prices than local shops. Sourcr helps you compare listings from Taobao, Weidian, and 1688, then check them against real buyer photos and seller feedback before you order through an agent.
For phone cases, the main risks are wrong model fit, weak buttons, poor camera lip protection, and misleading listing photos. Always confirm the exact phone model, material, and finish, then inspect QC photos carefully before shipping.
✓Buying tips
- Match the case to the exact phone model and camera layout, not just the phone size.
- Check whether it is hard shell, soft TPU, silicone, leather, or a hybrid design, because feel and protection vary a lot.
- Ask for the case weight if you want a thinner lightweight option or a heavier protective one.
- Look for raised edges around the screen and camera cutout if you want better drop protection.
- Read buyer notes for yellowing, peeling, loose buttons, and fingerprints on glossy finishes.
- If ordering in bulk, ask for mixed color availability and whether the factory can keep cutouts consistent across batches.
- Use an agent that can compare listing photos with QC photos, since many product images make the finish look better than it really is.
◎What to check in QC photos
- Check the camera cutout shape and whether it lines up cleanly with the lens area.
- Look at the side buttons to see if they are aligned, easy to press, and not warped.
- Inspect the corners and edges for gaps, rough molding marks, or uneven thickness.
- Review the material finish in close-up photos for scratches, dust, sticky surfaces, or glossy streaks.
- Confirm the logo-free print quality or pattern alignment if the case has decoration.
- Ask for a phone-in-case photo to verify fit, lip height, and overall coverage.
↗Shipping and weight
Most phone cases are light, usually about 30 to 120 g each depending on material and bulk. For one or two pieces, cheap air lines are fine, but for larger orders consolidate with other items to improve shipping value. Normal customs risk is low for plain phone cases, but avoid misleading branded designs and make sure the declared item description matches the goods.
¥Typical price
Typical prices are about $1 to $6 on 1688 and $2 to $12 on Taobao, with premium materials or complex designs costing more.
