I have the Bellroy leather case and I like it, random people also compliment it as well.

I bought the Bellroy leather case, and I like it.

You will find many negative comments here, but I like mine very much.

I don't drop my expensive things, and the only reason I bough a case at all is because the Pixel 6 is very slippery.

A little bit of ordinary care goes a long way.

There's the Bellroy, but the one for the 6 is genuinely the worst designed case I've ever owned.

There's the dbrand leather skins, which aren't actually a case, obviously. But they do have the grip case.

If you want something that's actually a heavy duty case, mous are apparently releasing their limitless 3 next month, which will have leather and wood finishes. Although they are bulky.

I picked up this one on Amazon and love it. Looks so good in person and feels really premium. Only about $15 and when I got it they had s 20% coupon so it was even cheaper like $13 after tax. Also, they have a few colors but I grabbed the brown or tan color. Definitely one of the cheapest leather cases but it's premium ImHO.

The Bellroy, once you accept the simple fact that it isn't an overly protective case, is absolutely fantastic for the Pixel 6 Pro. The Bellroy for the Pixel 6 is a different design which is still exceptional, but only if you don't mind the complete lack of protection at the bottom of the phone (which is completely open aside from the corners, unlike the 6 Pro being enclosed).

Leather is top tier - feels great, looks great, and will develop amazing patina after about a year (at least, based on my experience with the Bellroy for my 3 XL).

As to whether it's worth the price, that's debatable. Just note that any of these luxury/premium/vintage/etc "leather" cases you see for under $20 are going to be vegan, PU, or other synthetic leather, and, aside from being less durable, will look worse over time rather than better. Of course, they're a LOT cheaper, and for don't violate personal ethical mores held by some.

My Nomad leather case on my 3XL is nearly 3 years old and fraying a bit but still protecting my phone. The downside is that they don't keep up with the times. Their newest model leather case for Pixel is still 4 when looking at their website - apparently more iphone oriented.

I got the bellroy leather Case today. I put my pixel 6 into the new case and I notice the case is not snug. The phone rattles around in the case and the buttons therefore seems wonky too.
Anyone else have that issue. I'd hate to get a replacement and find out it is just as bad.

You're not the first person to have fit issues with the Bellroy. I think GoNavy had them too.

I'd advise sending it back and getting something else, to be a broken record, it's a piece of overpriced crap lol.

You're probably right. Right now I've cut a rubber band, shoved it in the top of the case, and slid the phone in.
It's kept the phone from rattling around in the case.
This will work for now, until I can get it returned. There's a 72 hour wait till I can get a response from bellroy.
Thanks for your input.
Cheers

Mine fits so well that it is a real bugger to get back off. I think I would have a friendly chat with them and see if they will send you another one.

Are you sure you aren't trying to put a Pixel 6 in a Pixel 6 Pro Bellroy case?

I have my Pixel 6 Pro in a BellRoy black leather case, and it fits perfectly. It's gorgeous! I love the look and feel of high-quality leather.

Haha. That gave me a good laugh. But I did try to see if it would fit in my bellroy Brown leather p6p case. It didn't.
Btw the pixel 6 pro fits perfectly into its bellroy case.
