A computer case refers to the outer shell of the computer mainframe. It mounts the components of the computer like the hard drive and motherboard, excluding the display monitor, keyboard, and mouse. Computer cases are usually constructed from steel or aluminum. Other materials like plastic, glass, wood, or Styrofoam might also be used.

Computer cases aid in the protection of the computer body. External factors such as dust and liquids can easily damage the computer system. A computer case isolates the system from these dangers and keeps them protected. Extensive use of the computer system can also overheat it and cause malfunctions. The case keeps the computer system at the requisite temperature. Noisy computer parts like the fans, when kept in the computer case, help in reducing the amount of noise they make.

KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 Impact: Increase in Remote Working to Foster Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with computer cases experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The rise in CAGR is attributable to the computer cases market growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The COVID-19 pandemic gave rise to a new work environment, with more and more people working from home. Offices and educational institutions took to the digital life. Students attended their classes online and people took to new digital hobbies. With more and more students and educational institutes taking up remote learning, education technology platforms flourished during the pandemic, giving people the incentive to buy personal computers, which are better for using for a longer period of time. This gave a rise to the computer market and subsequently the computer cases market. People who were earlier dependent on handheld devices such as mobiles and tablets have started buying computers for work, learning, gaming, and entertainment. COVID-19 has boosted the market for computer cases.

Latest Trends

Booming Sales through Online Retailers to Accelerate Market Progress

In recent years, online shopping has grown exponentially. The computer cases market is going to see the most sales through online channels and e-retailers.

Physical stores selling computer cases might be difficult to locate for the retail consumer. Online sellers provide the opportunity for people from any part of the world to get access to their desired computer cases, with just an internet connection. Online retailers also offer heavy discounts and options for returning the product. This has led to more trust among the consumers regarding online stores and removed any hesitancy that they previously had regarding buying products online.  Some online platforms also sell the product at lower prices than physical stores. The online distribution system is going to be the major distribution channel for the computer cases market.

Growth of The Gaming Industry to Boost Demand

The gaming industry is proving to be one of the biggest among the technological industries today. It has become an important aspect of our current culture and entertainment patterns. Many people are opting for professional gaming, as a career or as a hobby recently. There are tournaments being conducted specifically for gaming. Video games have become ingrained in our culture and everyday lifestyle. During the COVID-19 pandemic, people took to gaming as a hobby, something that they didn’t have time for earlier. Professional gamers prefer to use personal computers for their needs rather than laptops. Since gamers use their computer systems for an extended period of time, there is an increasing demand for computer cases by gamers.

Restraining Factors

Replacement of Computers for Handier Devices to Limit Adoption

Personal computers suffer from the disadvantage of being bigger, heavier, and lacking mobility. Smaller, handier devices such as laptops, tablets, and mobiles are more preferred by users. This is owing to the convenience offered by these devices in terms of travel friendliness and reduced use of space. This is hampering the personal computer market. People are more attracted to these devices as they weigh less and can easily be moved from one place to another. The computer cases market is directly related to the computer market. As more and more people divert towards laptops and tablets, it’s going to negatively affect the computer cases market growth.

• According to the OECD (2023), 47% of young professionals prefer laptops and tablets over desktop PCs for portability, reducing desktop case demand.

• The European Environment Agency (EEA, 2023) noted that 29% of electronic waste comes from outdated desktop systems, discouraging upgrades and slowing computer case replacement cycles.
