Which 6 Pro case are you getting?

I ended up returning it for that reason.
Yeah I wish they would have used rounded edges on the tough armor like they did with the card case. Just makes for a better feel in my opinion, but I'm getting used to the feel of the tough armor and starting to like it.
 
I've been so happy with the Rhinoshield case that I have not used any others... I think I'm going to put all my other cases for sale here. If anyone is interested hit me up. I got a couple of good cases barely used...
 
I have been using the Terra Cotta Bellroy on my P6Pro and so far so good. I would love to see the patina on some of the cases that folks have been using awhile

In all my years of buying cases, my Black Leather Bellroy on my Pixel 6 Pro is the most beautiful and best feeling case I've ever owned.
 
Bellroy leather case … just got today

This is beautiful. How are you liking it?
 
I'm considering the dbrand grip for my 6 pro.
I already have the rhinoshield solidsuit, which I like, and thought the dbrand might be a nice addition.
Any thoughts or reviews?
TIA

Hate quoting myself, but I lied LOL Can't get used to edges on the Spigen Tough Armor so I'm sending it back.
 
Carbon fiber case from AliExpress is swagger for 17quid.
Lead time is a bit long for 2 weeks with Christmas holiday.

I been eyeing this case as my Google case and DBrand Grip case was catching at the curved screen edge. Those are better for protection but this is like a feather weight with smooth swiping at those edges.

This case finally arrived from Ali Express and it's absolutely gorgeous! It has such a nice slim feel in the hand and the carbon fiber texture is soft and grippy. This will definitely be my go-to case for phones going forwards. I got the two versions, one that has an open camera section like in your picture and the other that has the closed camera section. I think I like the latter more so now I have an extra Pixel 6 case I may just gift away!
 
Just received my Dbrand Grip case for the 6 pro and it's pretty nice. Was able to install the skin and it looks and feels great so far.
I've been mostly rocking the rhinoshield solidsuit, which I like too, but this dbrand might be a step above.
 
Other than the fact that I cannot use the fingerprint sensor, I am really liking the custom Saran Wrap "case" I wrapped around my phone. I did have to remove the section covering the camera.

I really have to wonder if the designers of this device even tried holding it or picking it up? It is so darn slippery that I've almost dropped my two day old Pixel 6 Pro about four times. The form over function argument really shines in the design of the backs of many new phones. I wonder if I can get a nice light sandblast for the rear???

Since I wanted to take a few photos while out bike riding I knew that I needed something to increase the grip and thought about the Saran (okay, Costco's lifetime roll) wrap. It works to provide the grip I need till a case arrives.

I still hope that Stilgut makes a case for this phone.

This is fantastic. I wish you posted pictures!

I did think about it but I would have had to use the other phone and deal with it being somewhat inactive. I can post a picture I took through the saran wrap. :(

Much better without. :D

Hold your saran wrapped phone up to your bathroom mirror and take a picture of yourself holding your phone!

I too would love to see your ingenuity!

Well, I got a "quickie" case from Ringke but I'll grab some saran wrap (or "warp" as I first typed it) and re-wrap it. It looked kind of interesting. And it definitely made it much less slippery. I could actually man-handle the phone and not drop it. I could also tap and scroll but it would not recognize my fingerprint. Until wrapping it, I was seriously concerned with dropping the darn thing - it was that slippery. I mean seriously, that back might have looked exceptional but was completely impractical.
 
With "saran wrap" of of the way and since, at the moment, Stilgut has not created their case for the 6 Pro and reading all responses there is impractical at the moment, I'm looking for protection to the screen and overall phone since I still hike, cross-country ski and bike with the phone and don't want to worry about damaging it.

So, here's the case from Stilgut that I like and would like to know if anyone has recommendations on a similar case? It has that little "latch" to keep the case closed. I don't find it adds that much to the overall size or weight. Thanks in advance

That! There was literally a group of executives who were being shown a tile sample of the glass material and someone said, "This is great! Perfect for our new flagships!" (as the sample tile slipped out of their hand and broke on the floor).

I'm sticking with two cases - the Google one and a Spigen with a rough texture. Sometimes I do take the case off to admire the beauty but I sit in the middle of my bed so there's padding all around me.

This one is really nice. Has the latch at the side to keep it closed. But also has a card wallet that slots in the front. I keep my Costco and bank card in it. Was very cheap as well. Am sure it would be available on the US Amazon as well as the UK.

I like that separate "card wallet" which could make it thinner if not used. But it is not available in the US which is odd since there about two dozen "wallet" cases by all manner of foreign manufacturers.

I finally purchased the one below since I am so use to having a wallet case that my phone felt exposed to all manner of breakage without it. Hopefully, it will fit in my bike handlebar bag.

edited to add: Oh, I see that they ship that case to the US but that doubles the price to 22 Euros (+/-). Mulling....
 
I just ordered my phone yesterday from T-Mobile but I went ahead and ordered a couple cases to try. The Ringke Fusion (matte, not realizing there was a clear option...) and the Spigen Ultra Hybrid (crystal clear). I've used the Ringke before on my 2XL but never tried the Spigen. I'm planning to get some dbrand skins which is why I went clear. If the Ringke is too matte and kills the look then I'll return it and get the clear.
