English term or phrase: case vs housing
Buenos días a todos.

¿Cómo traduciríais estos dos términos en lo que se refiere a dispositivos móviles? Agradezco cualquier ayuda que me podáis prestar. ¡Feliz día!

De momento he puesto para case: funda, y para housing: carcasa.

Contexto:

The XXXXXX is applied to the case of a mobile phone or other device under the housing. Alternatively, it can be placed directly on the housing using the included self-adhesive tape.

disagree  Sonia Salvatierra: Hola! Si se aplica al CASE por debajo del HOUSING y lo puedes pegar directamente sobre éste con una cinta autoadhesiva, me parece que sería al revés. Por ejemplo, cuando imprimes algo lo haces sobre la funda, no sobre la carcasa, depende de qué es el XXX.
