Cases for the Pixel XL

[Pinhead117]

I picked up the OtterBox Defender. Damn phones are expensive and need heavy duty protection. Case fits surprisingly well, smooth and feels great in hand.

Picked up the Incipio Esquire series case.

How does that Incipio feel? Is it a fabric / vinyl type feel to the back?

It has little bit of fabric feel and it's nice feel but the case is too bulky after using it for half a day. Not sure if I can use this as my daily case.

I am curious about that feel.
Now when you say too bulky, would you happen to know what the OtterBox Commuter feels like? Trying to get a bulkiness reference scale.
The OB is pretty much at my max for bulk. I wouldn't want to put up with anything else.

Never used OtterBox because I like little slim cases. I have a tech 21 evo and Spigen clear crystal. Out of them Tech 21 is the slimmest, followed by Spigen crystal clear and then this. Not sure if that helps. But I'm sure if you search on YouTube there may be size comparison of the Incipio Esquire series even though the video may be for different device. At least it may give some reference to you.

Thanks, that actually helps. I am familiar with the Spigen Clear case. Might look into this case.

Love this case. Tpu with matte back. Can see the phone through it also.

Might have already been asked but what's the slimmest case anyone can find. I switched from iPhone and was using skincase which is amazing thin but of course they don't make them for pixel.

Anyone know when the lifeproof fre will be available?

I haven't seen any news, no.

This is what I have on my XL right now and I'm pretty pleased with it. I have another slim case on order coming soon that I will also try out, but so far this is my favorite:

I bought and have been using the Spigen Neo Hybrid for about 2 weeks now. I love it. It has already saved my Pixel XL from a few falls.

I have the Nillkin Nature one. It's pretty much the slimmest you can get at the moment. And it's good quality.

I don't need to test anymore cases, this is it for me. Actually the Nillkin Nature is always my choice if i want a slim tpu case.

I followed your suggestion of Nillkin cases, but instead went for the Frosted Shield case. It fits even better than the BearMotion super slim case I already had. Cutouts are more precise, the fit is tighter and the whole thing feels of higher quality. Plus, the white face of my Silver XL looks pretty awesome with the stark black version of the case.

I also have the bear case, and this nilkin on order to be delivered next week Tuesday. Even though I like the bear, from the picture I like nilkin little better. Your comments reassured me, thank you

I have the ssme,, but feels very bulky.. Finding alternative now

 

[shasticat]

I also got the Spigen Neo Hybrid Google Pixel XL Case with Flexible Inner Protection. I actually don't think its that bulky. I really love this case. it looks Amazing.
I got mine here Amazon.com: Spigen Neo Hybrid Google Pixel XL Case

Has anyone tried the Youmaker cases? I haven't heard of them before, but since Supcase isn't making my go-to case (Unicorn Beetle Pro) for the XL for some unconscionable reason, this looks to be the closest analogue I can find.

I prefer these 2-layer, 2-piece cases with a snap-in front cover. In addition to the Youmaker (and obvious Otterboxes), is anyone aware of any additional ones?
