The design of leather covering for mobile phone casings combines functionality and aesthetics, occupying a unique position in the mobile phone accessory market. Here are its advantages:
1. Touch upgrade
Comfortable grip: The natural softness of leather is more skin friendly than plastic/metal, reducing hand fatigue and especially suitable for long-term grip.
2. Warm texture: Avoid the icy feeling of metal or the cheap feeling of plastic, making winter use more comfortable.
3. Anti slip and anti fall
The leather surface has a high friction coefficient, reducing the risk of mobile phone slipping (tests have shown that the anti slip performance of the case is improved by more than 30% compared to a smooth surface).
When slightly dropped, leather can absorb some of the impact force and protect the body (but it needs to be matched with an internal cushioning structure).
4. Enhanced durability
High quality leather (such as top layer cowhide) has better wear resistance than ordinary coated shells, and after long-term use, it presents natural patina rather than wear.
Some processes add waterproof and anti fouling coatings to extend their service life.
4. Personalized expression
Leather can be customized with embossed patterns (crocodile pattern, lychee pattern), dyed (gradient color, plant tanned primary color) or laser engraved patterns.
Over time, genuine leather will produce unique usage marks, forming an exclusive style.
5. Environmental attributes
Compared to pure plastic shells, natural leather is biodegradable (excluding PU leather), which is in line with the trend of sustainable consumption.
Some brands use recycled leather.
