I personally like the LifeProof case because it provides waterproofing but it's very expensive at least when i want them to ship it in India. Got the Spigen Ultra hybrid case for myself..
Just a heads up, have a ad blocker installed before heading to that link. But otherwise nice review of some cases.
Cool list. I'd like to see a little more in depth writing about each though. Perhaps with actual photos?
I purchased the Spigen Slim Armor for my XL and gave it a full review with photos at my site: www.CarsandTechJDM.com
Tech 21 case is nice I'm using it no complaints.

Does it add much bulk? Want to pick one up but concerned about adding too much bulk. Also hoping for a sale as I am on a budget.
Thanks.

Not much really, it is the same depth as the pixel add an addition inch maybe for the protective lip and the edge is about an inch for the impact protextion.

I usually prefer the TPU cases and I just got the Google Pixel XL Case from Cimo for my Pixel XL. For the price, I would say its pretty great and wonderful quality.
I need an Ultra Thin Clear TPU between 0.2-0.3mm thick. You guys seen any yet?
Spigen Ultra Hybrid vs Ringke Fusion.
Which one is the better case? Ringke is cheaper so I'm leaning towards them. I've used the Ringke Fusion for my Galaxy S6, and the Spigen Ultra Hybrid for my Nexus 5. Does anyone know which case provides a better fit for the Pixel XL?
I have the Maxboost mSnap thin case, and it's pretty good. It's incredibly snug, thin, and well aligned for all the ports and buttons.
The long to negatives would be:
- slippery, though it feels like it's just the result of a slick factory powder coating that will diminish after a week of use, increasing its grip
- buttons are hard to press due to how small the cutouts are.
I can happily live with it until a premium, ultra thin case comes around.
My Ringke Fusion shipped yesterday from amazon so it should get here next week and I'll be able to give it a try. Right now I'm using the Spigen Liquid Crystal case on my phone and it fits really well so I can only guess the hybrid should be similar. I am partial to Ringke though because I'm one of those people who like to hang phone charms off my phones and their case has a cut out for them.
I'm loving the rhino shield crash guard bumper. It doesn't even make the XL feel bigger like it did on my 6P. Fits really well and the only problem that some people might have with it is the buttons are a bit hard to press. Definitely recommend this for anyone looking for something minimalistic.

I've already tried the OtterBox commuter and the Incipio. Not liking either one of these I tried the Spigen rugged armor case. It is the best case I have tried so far. It's also cheap.

I ordered xtremeguard full body, which ill use to protect the back. But wraps don't do too well with pocket lint in my pocket. Besides I have the blue xl, so id prefer clear.

it goes without saying that spigen LOOKS better. But that't not why i'm stuck between the two. From what I have seen from spigen's past products and uag's past products, the uag will afford a far greater protection. The spigen seems to have a very small lip for front protection. I'm not sure how much I trust myself with $200 phone and less protection if i went with slim armor...decisions...decisions.

Puregear Dualtek cases are pretty slim and also combine both materials into one. From what I hear they protect quite well, I don't drop my phone too often and when I do its probably from about pocket level so I don't really need a thick case
UAG is the way to go it doesnt get dirty.(idk about the white one) And the rubber it does have on it wont turn your pocket inside out. I have the olive grewn one for my s3 and i will get a UAG case for my S5 next year.

You are kidding, right?
There are many, many people that will dispute with you about whether UAG can even be classified as a slim case. Ringke Slim is slim. UAG is not.
This is for anyone looking to buy the Slim or Tough armour cases from Spigen. I bought both to review and noticed that they were almost the same. Protection wise there is almost no difference. The cutouts are different.

I too bought both, not knowing which I'd like.
I'm actually going to keep both. I really like the way each one feels and could see one used more over another at different times.
The Slim Armor feels great (very sleek) while offering good protection.
The Tough Armor feels a little more beefy, but still great.
They were already cheap on amazon, so might as well just have both!
Do these have the kickstand on the back? I hate the kickstand on the back personally, but I haven't seen a slim or tough armor without it for the galaxy s6.

They both have it on the back. There a little flimsy if you ask me. IF a kickstand is something you don't care about, then I recommend Verus cases.

One problem i found with Spigen is that it is easily scratched. I understand that it is cheap but still, ugh!
I have the tough armor, but what I don't like is the 2 sharp rectangular sides instead of smooth curved sides! I prefer Neo hybrid!
I came here searching the difference for both cases ? Someone said tough armour is beefy. So protection will be more right
I just checked at Spigen site and they say Tough armour case has EXTRA air cushion technology for all sides against the slim armour case which get at sides only. I guess tough armour case is more protective than just beefy

The tough armor makes it hard to press. The slim has much softer rubber so it's much easier to press (and you feel the click while on the tough armor it's like pressing rubber).
Has anyone found something minimal like the Incipio Feather, the Spigen Exact-Fit Slim Case or the Case-Mate Barely There?

98% of those are TPU/silicone cases. I think the only hard shell case is a clear one that has the laser auto focus covered (not sure how that affects performance). Spigen only has TPU cases for it so far.

Because neither it nor any of the others are as minimal as I'm looking for. What I want is just a shell that protects the surface and has a raised lip to keep the screen from touching a surface. Not looking for something to protect more than minimally from a drop. The ones I listed are are like that.
Wish Ringke would make the Slim case for the 6P. Have it on my Nexus 5 since I bought it.
Hoping that Spigen releases their Thin Fit case or Ringke their Slim Fit. Both in Soft Feel/Matte black.
I prefer the Ringke as it covers all four sides while the Spigen leaves the top and bottom open.
Spigen came out with an Ultra Fit case (in clear) which I continue to use with my Nexus 5. Perhaps they'll come out with a 6P version in the next month or so. I may hedge my bets and get the Fusion or Ultra Clear to hold over for now.
I can't vouch for any of these and I'm not sure if they're exactly what you're after, but here are a few options I came across that might be worth looking into (difficult to tell materials on some, ship dates may suck, etc):
*Also not sure whether cutouts are up to date for laser AF or whether old renders are being used.

The first pics they had on Amazon didn't even match the back of the 6P.
Now they have updated pics that match, but like you said, looks like it blocks the laser focus. We'll see once it arrives.
I ordered black was supposed to arrive today, but they updated the shipping. Now it's scheduled to arrive Tue next week.
I went back to Amazon and they don't even list black anymore, just blue, red and gold.
If it blocks the laser focus, back it goes...on Amazon's dime of course.
I have the ringke slim for my lg g3 and I'm hoping they come out with one for the 6P. I really like how thin that case is.

I just received the Monoy one, and it feels nice and thin but it does block the AF... contacted customer service to see if they plan on fixing it.
Sitting back and waiting for a Bear Motion case. Adds so much grip and slim enough. I've never dropped a phone with a Bear Motion case on it.

How do you like the case? Does it fit well? Do you use tempered glass? What make you choose Ringke over Spigen?
I am deciding between these two cases as well. Spigen has the black strip on the back fully exposed while Ringke has cut out for the camera and flesh only. I might choose Ringke just because I can use a lanyard. Spigen looks nicer though.

+1 I hope they do soon. It's the only case I've been using since the N4, then N5, iPhone 6s. I noticed that on the latest ones there's an edge above the screen that I don't like, supposedly so you can put your phone face down and not scratch the screen. I never do, so I'd rather not feel that raised edge when I swipe.
Noticed Spigen cases for iPhones are marketed as MIL-STD 810G-516.6 Military grade drop-tested, but not for Nexuses.
Example:
http://www.spigen.com/collections/iphone-6s-plus/products/iphone-6s-plus-case-ultra-hybrid-tech
http://www.spigen.com/collections/nexus-6p/products/nexus-6p-case-ultra-hybrid
Both are very similar in design and has air cushion technology etc. I'm assuming the nexus cases are just as durable but spigen hasn't gone the extra step to certify?
To be honest, I have no idea. Maybe Spigen didn´t certify these cases because the demand is quite low in comparison to cases for Apple devices ? Spigen cases are great though and offer a good value and protection for the money. It´s too bad that Spigen didn´t offer a tougher case like eg. a Slim Armor for the Nexus 6P. The Spigen Rugged Armor I have is great and quite slim in comparison to other TPU cases but in terms of protection I like bigger and bulkier cases like eg. the ones made from Otterbox. I use a modified Poetic Revolution Case for the Nexus 6P now and like this one even better
Well as far as I am aware... The speck candyshell are mil-810g tested even for the nexus6p.... For the spigen nothing is advertised for the cases... Plus its not as tough as speck cases so wouldn't believe as well

Just curious what makes the speck candyshell so good in terms of drop protection. It is recommended by many as the case to go for at $40. Looks like a thick case with some non-slip grips & certified. Doesn't look much different than those cheaper ebay cheapo cases in terms of design who knows they could also pass drop-test certified but don't bother paying for the test?
I'd imagine the design of the cases for the same mode l(e.g. Ultra Hybrid) are broadly the same.
As such I'm going to assume they are not "graded" as nobody has performed the necessary test.

I don't like the black or white models. Want mine boring and plain looking solid color if you know what I mean. You think the candyshell is more rugged than POETIC Revolution? Want something that can handle hiking and outdoor activities.
I don´t have Candyshell case but I own a Spigen Rugged Armor ( which is similar to the Spigen Ultra Hybrid in terms of dimensions ) and a Poetic Revolution. You can see a side by side comparison in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/accessories/mod-ultra-rugged-poetic-revolution-t3307492
I´m confident that the Poetic Revolution case is the stronger option in terms of protection

Poetic Revolution is more stronger for impacts.. but is also much more bulkier... i got both Poetic Affinity and Revolution.... i'd rather suggest affinity to revolution....
I'm considering the Affinity because I like the clear for this phone. I'm coming from a Moto X that was sporting a Supcase and was dropped many times. How would you rate the Affinity for protection and "dropability"?

Learned something new today. MIL-STD 810G-516.6 is a shock test where a device is dropped 4ft on to concrete floor 26 times. If it survives without damage then it pass.

Just ordered a Neo Hybrid. Prices suck, but I love Spigen cases.

Love spigen cases but I usually wait for them on Amazon first.
That tough armor looks, well, tough! I have one on my 3 XL. Is there generally a lag before they show up on Amazon? I show an estimated delivery date of October 23rd through 24th for the 4XL
I could get a caseology but I like the stand on the spigen

I've always bought my pixels after their initial release. The 4 is the first pre-order I've done and just went with a Google case for now since it's what I've had on my 2XL for a while now.
Amazon has 2 XL cases up now. Available the 16th. I'm getting the ultra hybrid.
I've always had the tough armor cases. Always good. For now I bought the Liquid air case. It is 10.99 on amazon right now. We'll see how it works out.
Ordered on Amazon, cancelled my order with spigen.com
I always had the Rugged Armor, but thought I'd change it this year.
I'd check Spigen's eBay for these cases. The official online store for Spigen usually sells them at full price and the eBay store's pricing is usually priced around half of the listed prices. They ship from Irvine, CA.
That soigen crystal case seems like a no brainer. Fully clear so you can see ALL the color of your device in all it's glory. Some cases cover the back, others cover the buttons.

ESR Air Armor Clear Case for Pixel 4 XL Case, [Shock-Absorbing] [Scratch-Resistant] [Military Grade Protection] Hard PC + Flexible TPU Frame, for The The Google Pixel 4 XL (2019 Release), Clear https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XZ437KP/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_L7nQDbY4WJJ89 I just found this one. Seems to be a good compromise between strength and keeping the device clear. Looks even better than the spigen ?

I just ordered that case this morning. It will be delivered tomorrow. There's two other cases from them for the P4xl, one with tempered glass back (clear case) and another clear case with a kickstand.

Will do
I went for the Burgundy Neo-hybrid. I was all set to get a clear case; the better to see my orange Pixel it but it was sold out so now it's black that wont see until next spring when I sell the phone. I'll also pick up a nice leather wallet case when one becomes available. Link to the Neo here ----> https://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Hybri...el+4+xl&qid=1571356020&s=wireless&sr=1-6&th=1
I've been running a thin fit on my 2 XL since new. Love it. Just saw they have a white thin fit I'll be pre ordering on Amazon.
Just got my Neo Hybrid and Rugged Armor cases. I was originally going to just pick one to keep and return the other one, but wow, I love the way both these cases feel. The back has a nice matte feel to it. Fingerprints don't smudge on it. I have oily hands and it's not noticeable on these cases

Outa curiosity, which one feels like it has the better grip? I was planning on getting one of these 2 cases myself. Really like the looks of the Gunmetal hybrid one. Thanks for any feedback :good:

Hmm ... This might be a YMMV type of thing. Only just holding both cases with no phone in it, I would lean toward the Rugged Armor being "grippier". Only because on the Neo Hybrid, the sides of the phone case might be slippery to some. But close tie between the two.
