The Pixel 3 is a good-looking phone, but thanks to its all-glass back, it’s not the most scratch-resistant you’ll find. Whether you want to keep it protected or just add some pizzazz, these are the best Pixel 3 cases you can get.
All-around champ
Spigen Neo Hybrid
Staff pick
$17 at Amazon
The Spigen Neo Hybrid is one of the best cases to ever exist. We gave it an AC Choice Award for the Google Pixel 2, and with the Pixel 3, it’s just as good. There are two colors (Gunmetal and Burgundy), and the two-tone design is absolutely gorgeous.
Like totally perfect
Totallee Case
This thin case is one of our favorites. There’s no branding, no nonsense, and it comes in three distinct styles: matte black, opaque white, and a soft, squishy clear version. Each is remarkably thin, high-quality, and will protect your Pixel 3 from scratches and scuffs with ease while also providing grip.
$29 at Amazon
Translucent treat
Cimo Slim Grip
$8 at Amazon
Clear cases don’t have to be boring! Cimo’s Slim Grip’s translucence gives you protection while letting your Pixel’s design shine through blue or purple — or clear if you want to be plain. What? We’re not judging.
Fabricy goodness
Google Fabric Case
$40 at Amazon
Google introduced its fabric cases last year with the Pixel 2 series and is bringing it back for another round with the Pixel 3. There are multiple fabric designs to choose from, each with its one distinct look. These cases are on the pricey side, but they’re well, well worth it.
Affordable and slim
Vinve Carbon Fiber TPU Case
Vinve’s Pixel 3 case offers great protection while still keeping the phone nice and slim. The TPU material is soft to the touch while offering lots of grip. Plus, the subtle pattern at the top and bottom is a really nice touch. You’ve also got your choice of Black, Blue, Gray, and Red.
$7 at Amazon
Dual-layer life
ASMART Drop Protection Case
$8 at Amazon
ASMART’s case strikes a nice middle-ground of offering ample protection without being too bulky. The dual-layer design consists of a TPU inner case and a hard outer shell that works to keep your phone safe no matter what. AMSART also goes the extra mile with a lifetime warranty to protect your purchase.
Unique design
Ringke Fusion-X
$12 at Amazon
The Ringke Fusion-X is probably one of the more unique-looking cases you’ll find for the Pixel 3. The impact resistant back bumper safeguards the phone against unwanted drops and bumps while the special Anti-Cling Dot Matrix tech helps to keep fingerprints at bay.
Guarded against everything
Spigen Tough Armor
$17 at Amazon
Are slim cases not your jam? We recommend looking at Spigen’s Tough Armor case. This case offers maximum durability without being overly bulky, and it’s a combination that’s darn near perfect. The ergonomic design is easy to hold and the kickstand on the back is a really welcome touch.
Wallet case
Maxboost Folio Style
$10 at Amazon
Wallet cases are a great way to simplify your day-to-day carry, and with the Maxboost Folio Style, you can easily use it as a full wallet replacement. There are slots for three debit/credit cards, a side pocket for cash, and the faux leather material looks and feels great without breaking the bank.
Max protection
Poetic Revolution
$15 at Amazon
For people that need one of the most protective cases out there, the Poetic Revolution is for you. With a built-in screen protector, dust flaps, and a heavy duty TPU bumper, this case keeps the Pixel 3 safe against whatever you throw at it.
Colorful coverage
TUDIA Merge Series
$10 at Amazon
TUDIA makes really great, affordable cases, and its Merge Series is one of its most popular. The dual-layer design means you get ample protection for your Pixel 3 with precise cutouts and tactile button covers. Plus, the vibrant Mint color shown here looks downright awesome.
Genuine leather
Bellroy Leather Case
$45 at Amazon
Leather cases are wonderful luxuries, and that’s exactly what this option from Bellroy is. Offered in Navy, Black, Caramel, Coral, and Graphite, these cases are made out of real, environmentally-certified leather and have a soft microfiber lining inside to give your Pixel 3 a soft, warm pillow to rest on.
Like nothing’s there
X-Level Guardian Series
$11 at Amazon
Hate bulky case? Me too. If you just got a Pixel 3 and want to keep it safe from minor bumps and bruises without turning it into a meatball, the X-Level Guardian Series case is the perfect choice. Available in multiple colors/finishes, the case offers 360-degree protection in a ridiculously thin footprint.
As thin as you get
Anccer Colorful Series
$12 at Amazon
Another great option for a thin case comes from Anccer’s Colorful Series. This case acts more like a snap-on shell for your phone and is available in a variety of different colors. It offers solid protection, features a gravel-like finish for added grip, and has accurate cutouts for the fingerprint sensor, camera, and buttons.
Hidden wallet
Teelevo Wallet Case
$13 at Amazon
Most wallet cases have a pretty obvious look to them, but not this one form Teelevo. At first glance, it’d be easy to assume this was just a normal protective case. However, a hidden compartment on the back opens up to reveal a small storage area that can hold up to two credit cards! Even better, this can double as an impromptu kickstand for watching videos.
No matter your case preference, there’s something out there for you to outfit your Pixel 3 with. My personal favorite is the Spigen Neo Hybrid, but if that’s not your cup of tea, there’s bound to be something else on this list that catches your fancy, like the ultra thin Totallee or the rough-and-tumble Poetic Revolution.
