" ...  I can't speak for how protective it is but I've owned this case before and never had an issue.  ...  "
comment
" ...  It's the perfect lightweight case.  ...  "
comment
" ...  It does appear to be well made and my last case by this company held up well against being dropped multiple times against hard surfaces.  ...  "
comment
" ...  I highly recommend this case!  ...  "
comment
" ...  This case is thin enough for me with a nice grip, smooth lines, and good resistance to scratches, blemishes and dirt attraction.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Another great case from Spigen!  ...  "

" ...  This cover fits my Pixel 3 perfectly, has a good feel, and I don't even notice it.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Great case, I had a similar version on my S6, will only buy Spiggen ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  ...  "
comment
" ...  Solid case, better texture than older (Pixel 1) Spigen cases, which were a bit slippery. ... The back of the case seems to scratch easily, other than that good case, fits perfectly.  ...  "

" ...  This is the 3rd phone I have bought a Spigen case for, and they have all been great.  ...  "

comment
" ...  I bought a similar Spigen case for my Galaxy S7 Edge and it lasted two years on my phone.  ...  "
comment
" ...  It is the perfect compromise between support and slim fit. ... It adds enough bulk to help me have a better grip and feel in my hands, but not so much bulk to let me forget the slim portability of the pixel. ... The texture allows grip in my pocket and my hand, so I don't have issues slipping out or dropping it (i have dropped it before the case a couple of times, and nearly had a heart attack). ... This case just makes it so comfortable to hold now, and I'm much more confident using it with just one hand (the ultimate benefit of having a smaller phone).  ...  "

" ...  Mainly because I put it in my lap in the car and forget that it's there because it's so light and sleek (even with the case) that I forget that it's there.  ...  "

" ...  It's so far protected the phone for several high drops on tile. ... I am using this case without a screen protector and love it  ...  "
comment
" ...  The top of the case also has a slight lip around the edge of the screen so that the glass is protected if you set the phone face-down on a flat surface (which you might be doing since it's a new feature in android 9 - "flip to shhh")  ...  "
comment
" ...  I had the Spigen case for my original Pixel so I decided to get another one when I upgraded to the Pixel 3.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Solid case, better texture than older (Pixel 1) Spigen cases, which were a bit slippery.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The case is not too bulky and I was able to easily add a glass screen protector with the case. ... I've dropped the phone a couple of times, once on to a tiled floor and the phone was protected as was my investment.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Got my Pixel 3 yesterday, and the darn thing was so shiny and glossy I was afraid to take it outside or put it in my pocket. ... The wireless charging works fine, and there is a small lip on the front which protects the screen if you lay the phone face down.  ...  "
comment
" ...  When I pre-ordered the first pixel I went through several cases trying to find a good one that I liked. ... Ended up sticking with the rugged armor case and even getting one when I upgraded the the pixel 3.  ...  "

" ...  It looks great, feels great and is easy to hang on to. ... It may not have the best grip, but works well, the Pixel3 is easy enough to hold as is.  ...  "

" ...  The buttons get an upgrade too. ... I had the hardest time finding the button placement on the pixel since i'm used to the note 8. ... The case adds more girth to the buttons, so that I can easily feel for the bump and have no problem clicking it.  ...  "
