Not only is it constructed using ABS plastic making it a tightly-fitted case, but it can fix itself. The paint used on the case is made of up of the same chemicals that have been put towards painting Nissan and Infiniti vehicles so that any disturbances in the coating will heal and return the phone's appearance back to normal. It is no secret that the average individual wishes to keep their cellular device (especially their smartphone) looking as new as possible and though one buys a case to protect the phone from scratches, having a brand new phone wearing a brand new-looking case would be even more satisfactory. The Nissan Scratch Shield iPhone Case will have phones everywhere dressed to impress. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.2/10 - Popularity: 85% | Activity: 94% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Regenerative Phone Protectors:** The self-mending Nissan Scratch Shield iPhone Case showcases the trend of regenerating phone protectors, offering disruptive innovation opportunities for the smartphone accessories industry. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Smartphone Accessories Industry:** The self-mending Nissan Scratch Shield iPhone Case introduces a disruptive innovation opportunity for the smartphone accessories industry by offering a unique regenerative phone protector. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Imperceivable Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nakey-smartphone-case.md) - [Self-Cleaning Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selfcleaning-smartphone-case.md) - [Recycled Material Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/native-union-reclear-case.md) - [Functional Protective Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iphone-17-cases.md) - [All-Angle Protection Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rhinoshield-airx.md) - [Stylistic Sustainable Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collection-of-cases.md) - [Premium Protective Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dbrand-tank-case.md) - [Ultra-Durable Clear Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amazingthing.md) - [Chic Skeletal Smartphone Protectors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dango-adapt-iphone-case.md)
