Mobile Accessories Sales Rebounded in Q1: NPD

Mobile device accessories sales had a robust Q1, reported NPD Wednesday: Double-digit revenue losses across the board in 2020 were replaced by 18% Q1 sales increases of mobile phone cases, while screen protector sales grew 9% and mobile power accessories 38%. “Declines we saw in screen protectors and cases were in part driven by store closures and other shifts in consumer behavior as a result of the pandemic,” said analyst Jill Aldort. “We expect to see sales of these products grow in 2021.”
