Huaqiangbei is the global capital of consumer electronics — a 1.5km×0.5km district where 50,000+ stalls sell every component imaginable. SEG Plaza is the canonical landmark (10 stories of electronics, with the rooftop observation deck up top). Other anchors: HQB Square (mostly gadgets and finished goods), Huaqiang Electronics Market (deeper into components — chips, circuit boards, raw parts), Shenzhen Electronics Mall (audio, drone, robotics). Tourists come for the spectacle and the cheap headphones / phone cases / mini-drones; hardware engineers come for the world's deepest supply chain in 4 city blocks. Bargain hard (start at 40% of asking), bring a translator app, and watch for counterfeits if buying brand-name. Most stalls take Alipay; the higher-end stores will accept Visa/Master.

The world's largest electronics market. SEG, Huaqiang Plaza, Mingtong — endless floors of components, drones, phones. A hardware-maker's heaven.

华强北是真·电子产品宇宙!耳机/相机/手机维修部件全有。砍价空间大但要会问。地铁7号线华强北站直达。

Marcus L.·Google Maps·4/5
Overwhelming if you go without a list. Knock 30-40% off the asking price as a baseline. AirPod clones look identical and cost a fraction.

Filmed 'building a phone from parts' here — Scotty Allen pioneered the genre. Still the canonical English-language tour of the market.

建议早上去人少。维修电子产品超便宜,iPhone 屏幕200元换好。但要小心假货,认准官方授权店铺。
