Pixel 8 cases thread.

[Katrina White1]

I've used Ringke Fusion and CaseBorne exclusively the past few years.

In my experience, CaseBorne has some of the best drop protection. My son left my phone on top of my car. It slid off in the cul de sac and there wasn't a scratch. (screen protection also) I ordered the clear and the tough one.

Here’s the Mous posted on our Pixel 8 thread on Mac forums

Mous case arrived. First impressions are good. I went for blue even though I’ve got the Obsidian phone ordered. Hopefully the combo will work.

Roll on Thursday.

I didn't order a clear Spigen Ultra Hybrid

I decided to go with the Mous although I was eyeing that Dbrand Ghost ...

I was close to ordering that one....

I got a cheap Spigen case from Amazon to start with. Already delivered. I ordered a Grip case from dbrand that won't be here until the end of the month. I have used that brand for my last 3 pixels and they have been solid.

I am getting a clear Spigen Ultra Hybrid for my P8P.
What are the rest of you getting?

See, THIS is a real problem for me. I'm a caseaholic. I ordered 4 along with my phone - the plain one by Google, the Belroy leather, the Spigen Tough and the Otterbox SuitOfArmourSpaceSuit.

They probably won't be the last I get, either.

For what it's worth, I had a Monargch pro which went back and I've got a Peak design everyday and a Mous Clarity for my S23 Ultra, and the Mous basically stays on all the time.

Interesting that they have actually got a partnership with Google this year.

Yes caught me off guard seeing them on the Google store.. from the looks of it I think I'm going to like the case..

I love my grip case on pixel 6 pro!
I've ordered 5 relatively inexpensive cases for the 8 pro and I'll pick one until I decide on something more expensive. Maybe it's dbrand or maybe something else. I'll wait for some reviews.

I bought a Bellroy case for my P6, and it was a very nice case.

When I traded the phone on a P7P, I decided to stop buying $50 phone cases, and I won’t do it again.

I just went for the clear Casemate signature case in the Google store. If Spigen had gotten their cases up on Amazon a little sooner I probably would have gotten the clear Ultra Hybrid instead, and if I'm not liking the Casemate one, I will get the Spigen.

I wouldn't give Mous a dime as I don't like that guy yelling at me in their ads.

I received the spigen clear ultra hybrid yesterday and it looks very nice. We'll see how it looks on Thursday when I receive my 8 pro.

The biggest thing that puts me off is them touting they've had a massive investment from the guy behind brewdog... mediocre beer from a crappy company.

What did you go with?

The blue Bellroy and I had a $40 credit from Google so I picked up that blue silicon for free. I may not even open the bellroy, I liked their case for my P7P but I feel like I need a dark case when I am having blue overload.

 

[gendo667]

I have a Latercase coming for my P8P

How is the grip on the Latercase? I love the look but I've read they're slippery.

You definitely have all the chips in on blue ha ha… now all you need to do is pick up a different style then you’re all set
