Accessories Case / Screen protectors - Google Pixel 7 Pro

What case / screen protectors do you plan on using on your new p7p ?
If the modem is still terrible at least you can disguise it in a nice case

Not sure what people complain about. The modem on my P6P works pretty much exactly like every other phone I've ever had.
Anybody know if a P6P case will fit on a P7P? They seem pretty close to identical.

I've always liked Spigen cases, but I wish they would make them in hazel. The hazel one on the google store is not in stock, uggh. I usually go with Skinomi Matte screen protectors. Might try the spigen protector this time.

According to the Google Store, the only screen protector - as of now - that is "officially" rated to work properly with the FP scanner is the Case Mate variant, it's a flexible/non glass one.
I sifted through most ebay/Amazon P7 Pro screen protector offers that are available, and oddly enough most tempered glass screen protectors have a warning message that states that the FP scanner won't work due to a technical limiation.
Hopefully that doesn't mean that no glass screen protector will work.

Concerning cases, I planned on getting a Paralax from Caseology, but it seems that they changed their design. The P6 Pro had a wonderful two-toned design (gold colored accent on the camera hub and centered in the middle, with the black variant), that is now a boring/terrible grey-ish accent. So I'm not sure yet what kind of Case I'm going for.
The Caseology Athlex (a new case) looks promising, since it has a dent in the middle to rest your finger, but the neon colors on it are ridicolous.

What do you think about the Dbrand case?

Spigen is now a Made for Google partner with its Pixel 7 cases

Seems like there's no regular brown option for the bellroy leather case which is unfortunate.

I ordered a Caseology Parallax case and pre-ordered a Whitestone Dome tempered glass screen protector.

Spigen most thin option(I think tough armor it's called), and Whitestone Dome like always(there taking preorders and shopping soon). Whitestone dome was $19.99 for two.
I hope this can help someone.

IIRC, the Thin Fit is Spigen's thinnest model, and the Tough Armor is actually bulkier than the Thin Fit, Liquid Air, and Rugged Armor models.
I went with the Spigen Liquid Air. It's what I've got on my current phone. It hits the right balance for me between protection and bulk. FYI, though; some people don't like it because it's possible for stuff to get in the grooves in the triangle texture on the back. It doesn't bother me - I just brush it off, and it's fine - but I thought I'd mention it just in case that's something that's an issue for anyone.

Also, been using Spigen Thin Fit on my prior devices which works for me!

Thanks, and yes, for me it needs to fit in my work shirt; I have thin fit on m yOnePlus 8 & 9 pro. I'm thinking a good chance, I'm gonna have to get another case, but I didn't see thin fit so I figured I'd try the tough option. Thanks for the heads up. I see on Spigen website, they have it along with a charger for free w/purchase.

I hear ya. I'm not sure what's up with Spigen P7 Pro cases on Amazon right now. I had to go to Amazon's "Spigen Store" page to find the Liquid Air because it didn't show up in the search results for whatever reason.
FWIW, according to the Spigen website a P7 Pro version of the Thin Fit does exist, they just don't seem to be currently selling it on Amazon for whatever reason.

I have Caseology on my P6P. Looking at the Athlex for my P7P. I also bought Skinomi screen protector.​
The Spigen Liquid Air looks pretty nice too. I have a week to decide while I wait for my phone to arrive.

Spiegen Liquid Air for her phone and Supcase Unicorn Beetle for me. Both with Supershieldz screen protectors. It's how our current phones are now. I'm just sticking with what has been working for me.
.

I'm doing the Caseology Parallax too. Have one on my P6 and I like it.

I went with the Athlex, I have a vault on my p6pro. It should be here today.

I got the Spigen Rugged Armor as usual. I kinda wanted to try the Athlex (I kinda like the black/neon green one) but it seems really bulky!

I have ordered the luxurious bellroy leather case again, (same as for pixel 6 pro), and also the caseology one.
UK costs,
£49 and 16.99.
Both great cases.

Hi to all,
I'm considering buying something that can best protect my S4 display. What can you advise me against accidental falls or blows to the display?
What's best choice?
Cover?
Tempered display films?
Bumper?
Many thanks

Personally-and others may disagree- I have glass screen protector from mime. Price is steep, but with 50% off, no hassle warranty from mime, it was worth it. Mind you, I got three replacements because I dropped my phone on concrete, then accidently dropped ipad on my phone. Both cases resulted in glass protector shattering, but the screen itself is completely fine.
On top of that, I use otterbox commuter when I go mt climbing, or camping.

Mmm ok...MIME at the moment cost 24$
Is the MIME case friendly? I have the spigen case so a screen protector needs to have minimal coverage to make room for the case lip.

If you have a spigen case, buy a spigen tempered glass protector. They all are all comparable with each other as long as they are spigen brand. Personally I had a mime feather lite tempered glass protector and it worked great. They're quite thin, but thin enough to where it will crack if flexed too much during installation. I recommend a spigen glassTr protector. They're ultra durable and don't diminish the capability of the screen at all. Well worth the price.
As far as cases go, I'm using a spigen neo hybrid. I've dropped my phone from about six feet up a few times now, and the case has protected the phone perfectly. Its also fairly thin so it doesn't add a very much bulk at all. As far heavy protection goes, otter box ultimately has superior protection.

I have been using the spigen crystal series screen protectors ( $8 for 3) and the neo hybrid case. Seems to protect pretty well.

$24, but amazing customer service, and 50% discount on future replacements in case protector shatters.
You get what you pay for.. eBay has cheaper ones, but doesn't have the same quality, nor after sales support.

With mime, there is small space around the edges, for cases with curling lips.
I have spigen neo hybrid, and ultra thin case. Additionally, otterbox commuter and samsung official case (not sview nor flip cover). And I can say all the cases fit without a problem.
Otterbox or something similar. If you can get a discount even better, but the price is worth the protection these type of cases provide.

Just make sure you buy it from them directly (their Amazon or Ebay outlet).
Buy from *ANYWHERE ELSE* and they do not support you. Even if it can be verified that the product is authentic.
This is egregious and I will never buy their product again.

This is why I didn't feel bad buying a knockoff slimarmor s-view. At least I know I'm not getting no customer service and the price reflects that. Spigen gets the benefit of claiming awesome customer service, but only for a select group who buy through 2 options when multiple others are available. It's like samsung voiding your warranty because you bought your phone from AT&T and not verizon or sprint.

Mime doesn't sell any cases.
This SPIGEN SGP Premium Tempered Glass Screen Protector GLAS.t NANO SLIM protected my screen like a champ when it fell, screen first, from aprox. 5 feet.
I like the MIME better and is what i have. I also have the Neo Hybrid and the slim armor cases from Spigen, I like the MIME Ghost glass best for 2 reasons.
first, The hardness rating is a 9H and the Spigen is an 8H rating so MIME is harder to scratch technically.
Second, The MIME is a .32mm thickness compared to Spigen's .40mm. I like this because with the very thin case edges the MIME still is recessed so if/when you put the phone face down it isn't resting on the glass protector.
1 more thing. MIME (others likely do too) has a thin layer of coating to resist finger prints. Solvents like windex and such will break that down. Use something for cleaning LCD and you will be better off. My first MIME Ghost Glass i used windex all the time and my finger prints were getting bad on it (way easier) and my 2nd one i only use the actual screen cleaner stuff and after 3 or 4 months it's still hard to get it all mucked up with prints.
does anybody have any experience with the Spigen Slim Armor View? i wanna get one of these along with a nano screen protector from Spigen as well, but i want to know what is my best choice between the Spigen cases

This is what I use and I love it. Completely cannot tell it's there and 100% feels like the bare screen since it is of course glass just like the bare screen.

Unrelated to the thread topic, but I have one in white and love it. I would suggest going through the slim view armor thread and finding a reputable knockoff dealer and getting it from there. Spigen will not replace it most times when it fails, even if you order it through an 'official' store and the hinges on the official case sometimes break.
I paid $15 for my knockoff and after 6 months of use on a construction site its still like new aside from the scratches. A glass screen protector does make it harder to press the home button to light up the s-view display, but that's a function of the screen protector thickness, not the case. With an aluminum home button sticker it goes back to a very light press.
I also run it with an official spigen glass.tr protector (Picked it up for $20, otherwise I wouldn't buy it).
Oh I complained about Spigen, but did not indicate what I use.
I use a glass screen protector. Glass all the way.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/171172132327?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
They show up fast and only cost $9 or so. They are a little thicker than the Spigen Nano but for me it doesn't matter.
It definitely doesn't matter at $9.
Spigen tempered glass screen protector all the way.
Serious they are really just the best. Not only in terms of protection, it's also super slim and ultra clear.
anti reflexion screen protector, best!

Tempered glass case friendly?

Hey guys, ive never bought a tempered glass screen protector, and im wondering how case friendly they are? Im due for my upgrade on monday so id like to get one on order as long as its G2G with the bodyglove dropsuit rugged series case. Thanks
hi,
I did not have any problem but the case I use is one you find in the att store. it's not a 'slim' case by any stretch its a very thickish rubbery type thing for maxiumum protection. you could probably drop kick the phone and not even phase it.
the temperd glass with the case I'm using is no problem -- both I got in the att store when upgraded. my advice if you are shopping around online is to find people who use the case you do and ask them

I have 2 different versions of the Spigen and love the tempered glass I got from Luvvitt and Amazon
I have a Zagg Glass on mine and it fits fine into the Otterbox Defender.
I recommend Nillkin, the glass has beveled edges which will slide on the object that makes contact with the glass' edges and therefore prevent movement pressure. If you decided to go for another brand, I suggest you also look for beveled edges.
to be honest id say it fits most of the cases.. only bumpers might have some problems
Same here as Taz420nj, Zagg Glass and a Otterbox Defender case. I should have my Trident Kraken case this coming Tuesday. Best of both worlds as far as protection goes.

I have this one from Cybertech. It claims to be 0.15mm thick. It is very thin so that seems possible. It is unscathed after a month.
They are very inexpensive ($6.49 w/free shipping) so I may order 2-3 more.
It hasn't interfered with any of my cases. My daily case is a Caseology but I have a few others that I sometimes use..

Tempered Glass on UAG Case!

Folks
Recently I bought the UAG Maverick Case for my Note 4, and it's stunning beauty made like to resist any space impact with a style.
The screen protector film came with it is indeed offers decent protection, but it's terribly one fingerprint/smudge magnet. My hands do sweat at times and indeed gets oily often. So y'all can imagine how awkward using a beast.
Also the touch feel has been horribly ruined with the protection film, The feel of Spigen premium series is entirely different from this.
Many of the Note 4 users has said, Tempered Glass offers tough protection without taking down much the actual glass feel of the touch screen. So pals, Please do suggest me the best tempered glass solutions which covers a bit out of the display area (black screen) with the UAG Case on.
No Halo effects, Fingerprints and smudge shouldn't be attracted and must be wiped like in actual screen.
Thanks

I have a UAG case with a Moshi iVisor edge-to-edge protector on. Application was easy and there is no halo. It fits fine with the UAG case. However, please note that I have not tried taking the case off, and I have only been using this setup for just over a week. Others have reported that the iVisor can get dust under it through time, as it only has adhesive round the edges and not under the glass. As yet, I have not experienced this. An alternative might be the Momax or the Tough Armour as I believe these do have adhesive under the glass as well as the edges. I purchased a Momax too, but have not tried it as the iVisor is perfect at the moment. (Note that the first Momax had the capacitive buttons wrong (menu instead of recent apps), but on the one I got that has been corrected). Have a good read through the many threads on Tempered Glass protectors, as others have experimented with different brands and also use UAG cases.
I bought an arcadia full screen protector. It did not work well with UAG. Popped the glass up. I loved the look of the glass that I got rid of my 2 uag cases.

Thanks Kinsman-UK giving your view on Moshi iVisor! :good: Just can't think of getting dust/debris getting through the edges as it may result more damage than actually keeping the screen bare. I've checked the Momax website and found Glass Pro XS Screen Protector but turned down no luck to order one
I ordered my Momax from shop.brando.com - they seem to still have black and white versions available, post internationally.
Is that all?
I've gone nuts selecting over tons of brands, seriously picking up the right phone was never been this hard.
My prime needs are,
1. Compatibility with UAG Case over the phone. It must not pop of even on the small impact with the case.
2. It must sit some area more than actual screen (black area).
3. Good bonding with screen and don't let any dust/debris let through the groves or edges of the protector.
Somewhere landed between some premium and well known brands, viz
iloome, Moshi, MOMAX, intelliARMOR
I don't know about other people's experience but I have dropped my Note 4 three times in the past week (I know! Unbelievable, never dropped my old phone once, and then I get a new one and...) - anyway, the Moshi was not affected by the drops and is still firmly attached. I've only been using it for a couple of weeks, and haven't had the UAG off an on yet, but it seems fine. I think the Momax will probably be even better as it has adhesive all over, but I haven't tried it on yet because the Moshi is fine for the moment. The only thing I would say is that when applying the Moshi I left the phone out of the case for two days, and applied pressure all around the edges to make sure it was well adhered before putting the UAG on. This is just my experience, so just FWIW and YMMV etc etc
EDIT: Note that the Moshi does have a 'dot matrix' pattern in the glass (something to do with the way it is strengthened I think), but it is only noticeable if you look closely in direct sunlight. I only mention it because some people may see this as a problem - doesn't bother me (in fact I struggle to see it at all in normal use).
I use the Spigen slim Armor Case with the "Ultimate xplosion proof" crystal clear screen protector and have not lost any noticeable sensitivity at all. Not trying to convince you... just what I use and 100% happy with it

Moto Z FORCE Cases

Looking into buying a case tonight. Any takers?
Before you read lol this is overkill but Decided to go with tempered glass from Pleson. I've used them before on my Moto X '15 no problems!
Going to see how the tempered glass and clear case work out!
I'm going to give the protector a try only because I want to have a glass screen to slide my finger on. Plus, who needs to worry about scratches, right? I think it'll work out well because the screen seems flat. I'm still deciding if I'm going to get a case or not.
A glass screen protector is a really good idea to improve the feel. I'd try to get away with just a bumper for a case. Full disclosure, I played with them at Verizon yesterday but I don't have one.

Purchased an Otterbox Defender case. I needed tough case and didn't have any experience with heavy duty cases other than Supcase's Unicorn Beetle, Otterbox's Defender, and Trident Case's Kraken. Supcase has one for preorder and I doubt the Trident will release a Kraken case for the Moto Z Droid.
The Defender is what I expected; A durable inside case surrounded by a softer shell. Had the same terrible plastic screen protector as every other Otterbox case. Popped it off the case, removed the adhesive with the edge of a blade.; With a tempered glass screen on the phone itself the fit is a bit snug, but the inner case still closes and everything still lines up correctly so everything is good on that end. What I didn't expect is the belt carrier is actually decent; the phone can attach in every orientation (face up/down, rotated 180 degrees about the face). It adds a bit of bulk, but I will gladly take it over a simple shell or soft case.

Awesome. Is the bumper pretty low-profile? Damn, I thought it might make the Style Shell not usable, bummer. Let us know if you find a case that will accommodate the shell/mods! Can you post pics of the bumper/screen protector? Would love to see real-world pics.

Only one I've found so far that works with mods is one of the official ones from VZW. Appears to be pretty similar to the rest of the bumper cases out there, but twice the price:

1) The case is all clear right? The pics make it look like the sides are rose gold.
2) Any issues installing the screen protector? I've never had a glass and the reviews say that its prone to bubbles.

No problems it had bubbles but i forced them out.
And glass is the best new craze bro! It's worth it trust me! This screen can crack ice seen it better the tempered glass than a scratched screen.

Popped it off the case, removed the adhesive with the edge of a blade.; With a tempered glass screen on the phone itself the fit is a bit snug, but the inner case still closes and everything still lines up correctly so everything is good on that end. What I didn't expect is the belt carrier is actually decent; the phone can attach in every orientation (face up/down, rotated 180 degrees about the face). It adds a bit of bulk, but I will gladly take it over a simple shell or soft case.

I got this pair:
Screen Protector: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01K1D37OG
Case: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01JH36W98
Both fit and feel like they came from the factory. Very satisfied with both so far. I'll likely also get VZW's bumper "case" for when I'm carrying it around with mods.
[Edit]
After more reading on Verizon's bumper I think I'll hold off until someone else makes a decent mod compatible case.
Just pre ordered this https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01HP44TUK/ref=ya_st_dp_summary

I use the cimo tpu case. It's cheap, durable, and stylish.
Apparently I can't post links from the labs app, but it's easy to find on Amazon.
I posted a more complete review in it's own thread, but for belt clip holster types...
Good: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H2K0M58/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (Great fit with the Incipio Battery Pack on the phone)
Bad: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HCN4PB2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Too long... AGOZ one listed above it perfect length for a naked phone at almost exactly 6 inches of internal length (~15.5 cm). The MND, on the other hand, is about 6.75 inches in length (16.75 cm)... the naked phone swims in that much length.

Question whitestone dome and cases.

Wanting to know if the OtterBox cases will be compatible with the whitestone dome class screens. I ordered this phone and it'll be here this week and so I want to know about this and which defender like case would be best ahead of time so I can order the accessories accordingly.
Mainly I just care about grip and protection. Doesn't have to necessarily be a defender case I just need something that's not really bulky but offers the same type of shock absorption. Thanks.
Zizo Bolt, that's all I use on my N10+'s; lots of drops onto concrete, no cracks or damage.
Very grippy, does not attract dust and easy to clean. The kickstand tends to break but that's not a big deal.
Gorilla IQ Sheild is a hydrocell wet apply screen protector. Inexpensive, lasts about 6 months, easy to apply and eliminates scratching. My 2.5 yo N10+ stills looks and runs like new...
I don't use super big cases like that but if you haven't bought the screen protector i recommend the amfilm one instead. A bit cheaper and the oleophobic coating is way better than the white stone one. And i used to always use white stone and always had the same issue with the coating wearing out fast. Just an fyi
I appreciate the feedback! My main concern here is grip. And my main concern for the screen protector would be well glass tempered.. I don't mind spending the money for the white stone I just want to know if the compatibility will be there for these cases such as OtterBox or a knockoff version of OtterBox. I presently have a OnePlus 9 pro and I have a white stone on it with a grip type of case and it works perfectly and so I'm wanting to know if the same will be applied to the s22 series. I specifically would like to know about the OtterBox defender series and the Whitestone if they're compatible That would be very awesome if they were. Well I don't want to spend that extra cash for an OtterBox I will if I have to.

Glass protectors are the least compatible with cases. The case is the primary protection in face plants. It should have raised guards on all sides with higher ones on top and bottom.
This is a heavy, corner hitting, face planting happy phone when dropped.
It also has a heavy thermal load, the Bolt dissipates heat relatively well but a graphene or other thermally conductive non metallic material be nice. No such thing as far as I know...
The Bolt can be had for around $26 although it come with a screen protector I'm not sure if I would use it. The hydrocell ones seem to work well, similar to the factory installed ones but not quite as good.
Lol, I had it with Otterbox. The Bolt is as tough and grippy as it looks... and so far hasn't marred my N10+'s side rails in over 2 years of use. I live in the desert, sand and grit everywhere.
I had UAG armor kevlar and now use spigen luqiud cristal. With these cases I didn't had any problems with dome glass.
For me dome glass is N1. I use from Note 9, Note 20U and now S22U
I might just get a matte skinomi protector and the defender pro series from OtterBox and call it a day. used to be my combination on all my Galaxy phones I ever had. I do intend to place magnets in the case so I can use it with my magnetic phone holder so I don't know if the weight would be a problem or not I'm not sure.
