What case do you have on your Pixel? (self.googlepixel)

I've had a Bellroy for my Pixel 6 Pro and Pixel 7 Pro, but I've found that they reduced the quality significantly on the newer ones. My care is scuffed and torn, but I've always handled my phone just as gently as before.

I may go for the Hazel silicone one from the Google store this time, it's really pretty.

What cases do people recommend? Personally I don't care for the OtterBox type cases, but I'm open to hearing what everyone uses!

Spigen Thin fit. It's slim and it adds some plastic that is not slippery for me. (Similar to the nexus 5 / 5X black back cover).

I would love to try a case that has a gel quality like the one you find in the apple official gel silicon case. Because every time I see an iPhone with those and I try it, feels like grabbing a soft eraser. If somebody knows a brand that makes these let me know!

I just ordered that one on your recommendation. Thanks!

I'm not happy with my current case. It's not grippy enough, and the rear plastic is so thick that my magnetic car mount doesn't work well. It's the Caseology Athlex.

Hope you like it. It's not super grippy. But compared to a normal TPU case. This one is more grippy

At least it is grippy enough with dry hands

It's perfect, thanks! The back is nice and thin, and now my magnetic mount is much stronger! Its plenty grippy, too.
