The Nigerian mobile accessories market is expanding rapidly, with projections showing growth from $2.9 billion in 2020 to $4.9 billion by 2025, driven by rising smartphone ownership and mobile penetration.
Lagos state, home to more than 25 million residents and one of the country’s highest smartphone penetration rates at 78%, stands at the center of this boom.
According to Nairametrics, as of July 2025, Nigeria recorded 169.1 million active mobile subscriptions,a figure that highlights how mobile technology has become central to everyday life.
Report also shows that 86% of smartphone users in the country use Android devices, while 13% use iOS, and just 1% operate smartphones running the Windows operating system.
With each new device comes a need for cases, chargers, batteries, screen protectors, earphones and more.
Every street corner and open market in the city now doubles as a mini tech marketplace where vendors sell, fix, and customize devices to meet a growing demand.
These products are no longer seen as extras but essentials for users whose daily routines depend on keeping their devices active and functional.
Here are the most popular markets in Lagos where you can buy affordable phone accessories whether you’re shopping in bulk or not.
The GSM Market is in Surulere, along the main road between Ojuelegba and Itire. It started as a small plaza but over the years has grown into several buildings around the Lawanson bus stop.
Even though it doesn’t offer the wide variety of accessories you might find at Ikeja’s Computer Village, it serves as a convenient and closer option for people living and working in the surrounding areas.
You can find smartphones, chargers, phone cases, power banks, earphones, and screen protectors. Many shops also offer repairs, including fixing broken screens, replacing batteries, and updating software.
