A42 Cases

Phone Cases — wholesale buying guide (Galaxy A42)

In cases the material is the product decision: it sets the protection level, the price band and how many come back. Clear TPU is the material that yellows; tinted and solid colours hold up far better on long shelf life. Button feel is a hidden quality marker: a covered button has to travel and click like the bare handset or the case feels like a downgrade. A hybrid combines a hard PC back with a flexible TPU bumper, giving a premium look and real shock absorption at once.

Returns in this category are almost never about the drop test — they are about a camera surround that sits a fraction off, or a button that does not click.

Specs and checks that matter

• TPU: Flexible, shock-absorbing, lowest tooling cost — the volume material
• Clear TPU: The one variant that yellows with age; tinted and solid colours are far more shelf-stable
• Fit points checked: Camera surround, button travel, charging-port clearance and clamp pressure
• Silicone: Soft touch, prints well — the retail and private-label material
• PC: Rigid, holds a hard clean shape — the premium-look material

Buyer questions

Do you send samples?

Samples go out within 48 hours of the model list, so you can check fit and finish first.

How do you handle a mixed-model order?

Tell us the models and colours and we build the carton, labelling by model so intake is a scan.

How many models does one order cover?

As many as you list — mixed-model cartons are standard, and each model is moulded separately so nothing is compromised.

Will a reorder match my first batch?

Yes — we hold the approved reference swatch and match every reorder against it.
