The world of Pixel equipment grows yearly. Listed below are a couple of different circumstances I’ve tried and favored, simply not as a lot as those above.
OtterBox Defender Collection for $65: That is arguably essentially the most protecting case for the Pixel 9 collection. It has a tough shell that splits into two items, wrapping round the back and front of the telephone, and also you click on them in place. Then add the rubber slipcover excessive and the holster, which helps you to affix the telephone to the belt. The holster’s clip may also double as a kickstand in a horizontal orientation. Even the USB-C charging port is roofed up. I believe the OtterBox Commuter I like to recommend above will get you almost there when it comes to sturdiness, however if you wish to maximize safety and like holsters, go for the Defender.
UAG Tempered Glass Display Protector for $35: This tempered glass display protector (additionally accessible for the Pixel 9 Professional XL) was very straightforward to put in. It comes with an applicator instrument in addition to a moist wipe, mud removing sticker, and a microfiber fabric. I believe the Dbrand I like to recommend above is a greater worth since you get two within the field and it is cheaper, however UAG’s choice is a stable different.
Pela Liquid Display Protector for $60: I am cautiously optimistic about this one as a result of I have not had a lot expertise with liquid display protectors. Pela sends slightly vial with this liquid magic inside. First, clear your telephone with a microfiber fabric. Then, pour a 3rd of the contents within the vial onto the material, and wipe the telephone down. Wait two minutes, after which wipe away any extra. This liquid supposedly protects from scratches, drops, and even affect, and is oleophobic to cut back smudges. You will have to reapply it each 12 months, so save the remainder that is within the vial. I will report again if I’ve any points. The nice factor is Pela can pay for any display repairs offered you had been utilizing a Pela case and this liquid display protector concurrently.
OtterBox Symmetry Collection for $50: This can be a completely superb case that is only a bit unremarkable. The buttons are straightforward to press, the cutouts are correct, and there is good safety from the raised edges. It is simply not distinctive in the way it appears and does not supply some other fascinating options.
UAG Pathfinder MagSafe Case for $55: This was a bizarre one. I like this case, even with its considerably rugged look. However the MagSafe didn’t work in any respect on the Professional XL case. I believe I bought a dud, as a result of I examined the identical case for the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Professional, and magnetic wi-fi charging labored completely. Exterior of this blip, this case affords clicky buttons and many indents for a satisfying grip. The cutouts are correct, and the lips are raised decently on the show, although they may stand to be extra protecting of the digicam module.
Spigen Rugged Armor and Robust Armor for $16+: These circumstances are additionally accessible for the Pixel 9 Professional XL. The Rugged Armor has a pleasant textured again and edges, although these areas do have a tendency to draw smudges and marks. The sides are properly raised to guard the display and cameras, and the buttons are clicky. The Robust Armor, however, is smoother and has a kickstand on the again. Annoyingly, this kickstand solely works for panorama orientation, so it isn’t the case to purchase for those who watch lots of TikTok.
Thinborne Aramid Fiber Tremendous Skinny Case for $70: This case is not for drop safety as a result of it is extremely skinny. It is a good choice for those who hate circumstances however wish to defend your machine from scratches. That stated, it is actually tough to take it off (until you’ve got lengthy nails). It additionally smudges manner too simply, so I continually discovered myself wiping it down. There is a MagSafe magnetic ring baked in, but it surely struggled to reliably adhere to different MagSafe equipment—the magnets simply aren’t sturdy sufficient. Not less than you do get a display protector within the field, although you must freehand the set up.
Casetify Impression Case With MagSafe for $58: Casetify has an countless variety of designs you’ll be able to select from, and whereas it has come beneath fireplace for the way it acquires a few of these designs, there should not many locations you’ll be able to go to get a Pixel 9 case with Spider-Man on the again or one which makes your telephone seem like a movie digicam. These circumstances have MagSafe rings inside, so they need to work with most MagSafe equipment. I simply do not love how distinguished the Casetify emblem is on the again.
