# Modular Smartphone Cases The Case+ is a Smartphone Case That Doubles as a Battery Pack and Wallet By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2014-05-02 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/case References: [gizmag](http://www.gizmag.com/logitech-case-modular-smartphone-case/31887/) & [news.logitech](http://news.logitech.com/press-release/smartphone/logitech-unveils-innovative-new-smartphone-case-solution) The Case+ is a [modular smartphone case](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vrs-design-origin) to which different accessories can be attached for improved accessibility and portability. With many smartphone designs embracing modular philosophies, it makes sense for smartphone cases to follow suit, and that's exactly what the Case+ does. The case features a metal plate to which various accessories can be magnetically attached. The add-on modules include the tilt+, an attachment that can secure a folding leather kickstand, earbud wrap and a magnetic amount that allows the phone to be attached to metal surfaces. The Case+ also comes with an [add-on battery pack](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coreplus-power-bank), the +energy, which snaps onto the back of the case. The +energy can increase the [iPhone's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bangcase) battery capacity by 100%. The final accessory in the collection is the +wallet, which converts the case into a wallet capable of carrying cash and cards. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 71% | Activity: 39% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Modular Smartphone Cases:** Opportunity for smartphone case manufacturers to create modular cases that allow for customization and additional functionality. - **Accessory Attachments:** Potential for a market of attachable accessories that enhance the functionality and convenience of smartphones. - **+battery Packs:** Opportunity for battery pack manufacturers to create add-on battery packs for smartphones that increase battery capacity. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Smartphone Case Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for smartphone case manufacturers to create modular cases. - **Mobile Accessories:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for manufacturers of attachable accessories that enhance smartphone functionality. - **Battery Pack Manufacturing:** Opportunity for battery pack manufacturers to create add-on battery packs for smartphones. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [3D-Printed Modular Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-sliding-system.md) - [Action Button Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bangcase.md) - [Two-in-One Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dango-adapt.md) - [Slim Carry Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bellroy-mod.md) - [Power-Providing LED Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/starcase.md) - [Multifunctional Magnetic Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/torras-upro-ostand.md) - [Modular Gaming Console Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gcase-for-nintendo-switch.md) - [Device-Charging Glasses Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glasses-case-battery-bank.md) - [Detachable Component Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-smartphone-design.md)
