Guidelines For Listing 3C Products

Guideline Scope

• Mobile Phones/Tablets/Computers and Accessories
• Audio devices (headphones/speakers/microphones, etc.)
• Smart wearables (bands/watches, etc.)
• Household small appliances (e.g., routers, set-top boxes, power adapters, chargers, data cables, power banks, etc.)
• Other 3C digital electronic products and accessories

Product Title

Recommended title structure for 3C products:

[Brand] + Core Category + Key Specifications/Parameters + Applicable Scenarios/Devices + Unique Selling Points

Example:

[Apple] iPhone 15 5G Smartphone 256GB, Unicom Network, Dual SIM Dual Standby

✅ Best practices:

• Brand Name: If a product has a brand, it shall be indicated and be consistent with the brand field in the attributes.
• Core category terms:
  • Mobile phones
  • Tablets
  • Routers
  • Bluetooth earphones
  • Power banks
  • Data cables
• Key specification parameters: Capacity (128GB), power (65W), interface type (USB-C), network standard (5G), size (27-inch monitor), etc.
• Applicable devices: "Compatible with iPhone/Android/laptop", etc. (especially important for accessory products)
• Selling points and features: "Fast charging, noise reduction, Wi-Fi 6, 4K, 120Hz", etc.

❌ What to avoid

• Absolute terms: "Number one", "Best in the industry", "Lifetime warranty against damage", "Never overheat", "100% non-heating", etc.
• Obvious false or unreasonable efficacy: "Signal never drops", "Never runs out of power", "Never crashes".
• Brand/Model/Specification inconsistent with the actual situation: Ordinary chargers are labeled as "original official chargers", or incorrect memory/power ratings are marked, etc.
• Unauthorized or infringing "XX lookalike" or "imitation of a certain brand"

Product Attribute

• Attributes are an important basis for buyers to search for products. Detailed product attribute information can help buyers quickly understand product features, thereby increasing the transaction rate. The following are the general attributes of 3C products:
• Brand:
  • Should be consistent with the brand information in the title and details.
  • Avoid impersonating well-known brands or using similar and confusing brand names (such as deliberately misspelling by one letter).
• Model:
  • Use official models, such as "iPhone 15", "WH-1000XM5", "RT-AX86U", etc.,
  • Self-developed products should have a unified internal naming system to avoid multiple confusing model numbers for the same product.
• Color/Appearance: Use standard color names (Black / White / Silver / Blue, etc.), and avoid using non-standard color names such as "Popular Color" as official attributes.
• Compatible Devices:
  • Accurately fill in the applicable devices, especially for accessory products, such as "this phone case is suitable for iPhone 15/16/17";
  • Specify the applicable device rather than the applicable brand. For example, avoid describing the product as "this phone case is suitable for apple" in this case.
• Size/Dimensions: length × width × height / diameter / thickness, etc.
• Key technical attributes (depending on the product category)
• Mobile phones/tablets: Memory (RAM), Storage (ROM), Screen size, resolution, Number of SIM cards, Battery capacity, etc.,
• Headphones/Speakers: Connection method (wired/Bluetooth), interface type, whether it supports noise reduction, whether it has a microphone, etc.,
• Projector: Resolution, brightness, size, interface type, etc.;
• Monitor: size, resolution (1080p/2K/4K), refresh rate, panel type (IPS/TN/VA), interface type (HDMI/DP, etc.),
• Charger/Data Cable/Power Bank: Rated power, voltage/current range, interface type (USB-A/USB-C/Lightning, etc.), supported fast charging protocols (PD/QC, etc.), capacity (mAh), etc.,
• Handheld game console: screen size / resolution, battery capacity, supported systems (Android / Windows / proprietary system, etc.),
• Smartwatch: screen size, resolution, touch type (full touch / touch + physical buttons), battery capacity/endurance, etc.,
• USB Flash Drive / External Hard Drive / SSD External Hard Drive: Capacity (32GB / 64GB / 1TB), Interface Type (USB-A / USB-C / Dual Interface), Enclosure Material: (Metal / Plastic), etc.,
• Router: Frequency band (2.4G/5G), speed, number of antennas, etc.

✅ Best practices:

• Information is true and accurate, without false labeling:
  • Avoid labelling 4G phones as 5G,
  • Avoid labeling a 4600mAh battery as 5000mAh,
  • Avoid writing the 18W charger as a 65W fast charger.
• Key attributes should be filled in (even those marked as "optional" by the platform):
  • Power supply/battery products shall indicate capacity, input/output parameters.
  • Storage classes shall indicate capacity and actual available capacity specifications.
• Consistent with the title and details:
  • If the title claims "256GB", the attribute must be 256GB to avoid inconsistency.
  • Information such as color, model, and interface type should avoid self-contradiction.

Product Images

✅ Best practices for main image:

• The main body of the product should be centered, and the main body should occupy the main area of the image (approximately ≥80%);
• The main image should display the core product actually being sold, and should not use only a concept image to replace the physical product.

✅ Best practices for other images:

• Physical object images from different angles: front/back/side/top/bottom, etc.
• Close-ups of key interfaces/buttons: interface types (USB-C/HDMI, etc.), button layout, SIM card slot, etc.
• For smaller products (such as USB flash drives and data cables), handheld or proportional objects can be used to demonstrate their size, but avoid using PS or AI-generated images to alter the true proportions.
• Screen category: When displaying the screen's visual effects, it should ensure authenticity and not mislead through exaggerated rendering (such as extremely narrow borders or extremely unrealistic brightness).
• Scenario Usage Images:
  • Such as earphone wearing demonstrations, routers placed in homes, usage of laptops connected to monitors, etc.,
  • If other expensive equipment or accessories appear in the image, it should be stated whether they are included in sale or merely for illustration.
• Size Specification: Use wireframes/annotations to show product dimensions (length, width, height), cable length, weight, etc., use local units of measurement (e.g., use inches instead of centimeters).

*Example:❌ Practices to Avoid:

• The presence of other products that are unrelated to the product or may mislead consumers (for example, the main image shows headphones + charger + case, appearing to be a set, but actually only the headphones are sold),
• Images that are clearly inconsistent with the brand/model (e.g., using pictures of the latest model to sell an older version).
• Using false comparison images, such as exaggerating the comparison between "before and after signal enhancement" and using fake signal icons.
• The image contains dangerous usage methods (e.g., battery exposed to high temperature/near a fire source).

Product Detail Page

The details page should include the following information/section:

Basic parameters and specification information of the product (required)

• Brand, model, color, weight, material, main technical parameters, etc.

• Experience descriptions: such as "stable connection, low latency (based on reasonable testing)", "ergonomic wearing, comfortable even for long-term use", etc.

Compatibility Description (Applicable Devices, Systems, Protocols, etc.) (Required)

• Applicable device models/systems/brands:
  • e.g., "Compatible with iPhone 12 and above / MacBook series (USB-C interface)";
  • Avoid writing "suitable for all mobile phones" in a general way, unless it truly meets the criteria and has technical basis.
• Restriction Description:
  • When certain features are only available for some models, such as "fast charging is only available for devices supporting the PD protocol";
  • Reminders should be provided for the results of incompatible devices, such as "Connecting a non-PD device will only operate at normal charging power".

Instructions for Use and Packing List (Required)

• Instructions for Use:
  • Initial usage instructions (first charging time, power-on pairing steps, function operations, APP download methods, etc.),
  • Frequently Asked Questions Q&A (e.g., "What to do when unable to connect").
• Packing List: Subject to the list inside the physical package, which usually includes 1 main unit, 1 data cable, 1 user manual, and 1 warranty card.

• Batteries, chargers, power banks, etc., shall specify usage scenario restrictions:
  • Avoid high temperature/humidity environments,
  • Do not disassemble/throw into fire,
  • Children are not recommended to use it alone,
• For usage methods that may pose risks, clear warnings should be provided:
