Which 6 Pro case are you getting?

[B. Diddy]

How is the feel of the power and volume buttons, and how well does it handle the curved screen? I guess the toughest challenge is to protect it while not making the side swipes difficult.

Buttons feel great -- nice tactile click, but enough resistance to prevent accidental presses easily. Like most cases for the phone, the protective lip is at the top and bottom. The left and right sides are just about flush with the screen, maybe slightly lower than the Spigen Liquid Air, so the curved screen edges are a tiny bit vulnerable.

For heavy duty protection for my Pixel 6 Pro I bought the Supcase Unicorn Beetle. I have this case on my Pixel 4a and really like.
I was worried about the additional size and weight it will add but neither are problematic for me.
The case comes in 3 parts, the bottom case, the snap on screen protector, and a belt holster. The screen protector has an adhesive dot that adheres to the fingerprint sensor area to insure excellent contact. More about that area in a bit.
The screen protector is a thin vinyl that is a bit reflective but I quickly got used to it on my 4a. It in no way interferes with swiping or any screen touches. The sides of the case do rise above the curved sides of the screen which does offer edge screen protection and doesn't seem to interfere with side swiping.
The back case does have a built-in kickstand for vertical and horizontal positioning. It can also serve as a finger ring.
Now about the adhesive fps dot. Once the case is attached the dot area can be seen in some conditions. See screenshot. I use dark mode and it's not noticeable in most conditions, but it is in some. I'm not sure if I'll get used to it but right now I do find it to be a tad annoying. Since the screen protector does lay very tight against the screen I'm not sure the dot is even necessary for the fps to function. It does work well though. I am going to email Supcase and suggest an optional non-dot screen protector version. I think it should work just as well as the dotted one.
Below are photos of the front and back. You can see the reflectivity of the front but it isn't nearly as bad as it looks when the screen is on.
All in all I'm very happy with the case knowing that my P6P is very well protected, short of a tank running over it.

Update: For those who are into wireless charging I believe this will allow that. The only way I could test it is to use Battery Sharing with my Pixel Buds 2. It was hard to find the sweet spot but I did see a flicker of light on the Buds case. So I'm guessing it will work with a full size charging pads.

Rocking the clear Spigen NeoHybrid case. Dropped my phone from about 3 feet on hard floor last night, and I'm happy to report no damage was done.

Update: I'm sorry to write that at this time I have to change my recommendation to not recommended.
Yesterday I had my Pixel 6 Pro in the kitchen, and somehow some water entered under the screen protector through the front punched out camera hole. No biggie. I took the protector off and wiped it down, drying it off. Well, apparently that messed up the sticky stuff of the finger print dot, and it stopped transmitting the prints to the sensor. I won't go into all the efforts I did to try to get it to work, but finally I peeled it off. That didn't work. So at least I learned the protector without the spot won't work with the material of the protector.
I did email Supcase about this. I'll report back on their response.
As of now the case is fairly useless unless I want to manually enter passwords and pin #.
See update to this below.

Update to the update.
Supcase has already responded and the new case is on its way, I already have the tracking number! There is a one-year warranty. Customer support is great! I had to use them last year for the Pixel 4a case and they responded just as quickly. Take a lesson from this Google!
Next time I'll remember not to wipe or clean the dot area.
I still recommend this case for anyone who wants a heavy duty case that also comes with exemplary customer support and warranty. Just don't clean the fps dot.

Nice case - does it have good gripability?

Nice case - does it have good gripability?

The grip is really quite excellent. I've had a lot of cases over the years and I would rank this one as one of the best. It really compliments the premium quality of the Pixel 6 pro.

I figured as long as I was spending this much on a phone, I might as well get a case of commensurate quality.

Works for me - gonna get one and see - phone due here 12/15 - case should be here by then -

Just a lament.
After I received my Pixel 6 Pro I was so disappointed when I found out my all time favorite case company closed its doors sometime last year. Seidio is no more. Pity because I think they made the best belt holster cases, I had those on every one of my phones. Oh well.

Wait, Seidio is out of business now? They stopped making BB cases at the KeyOne and I had to find another dual case. That's sad. Loved their dual cases. Now I buy Trudia and bought a Trudia and a Crave for P6P to see which one I want to use daily and have the other as a backup. I don't like having plastic touching the phone but also don't like have that rubber feel on the outside either because it attracts the cat/dog fir. Hence dual cases!

Seidio closed as of February 2020. I had their case on all of my Blackberrys from the Passport and the two Keys. I might have had one my Curve as well.
I'll look into the two cases you have for your P6P.

Just an FYI, the Trudia cases seem to be painted over almost as the case I have for my K2 has the coloring scraped off the plastic shell. It's a black case so I don't care but it's not solid plastic like we're used to. The Crave case doesn't have this and has a better grippy feel overall than the Trudia just from having in my possession. Haven't tried either on the phone yet. I'm leaning more towards Crave case right now due to the available color I got.

That's so sad! It's very upsetting when a favoured brand or company closed up like that.

While waiting for my replacement Unicorn Beetle case I put my Pixel 6 Pro in the Spidgen Ultra Hybrid case that I bought awhile back. I do like the slimmer style but without a screen protector I'm just a bit more cautious. So I decided to buy a couple of screen protectors to decide if I want to keep the phone in the Spidgen case or use the bulkier but heavy duty Beetle. The attached are the screen protectors I bought. Looking forward to trying those out.

 

[The_Woo]

Sooooo..... I really like the Spigen Neo Hybrid. But, my OCD about the fingerprints being left on the back was getting to me. Plus there is a lack of options for matte clear cases, and I love matte clear cases. Problem solved.....LOL!!
