Google Pixel 3 is a gorgeous device, and it would only be fitting to add a gorgeous case to protect it. Silicone and polycarbonate cases are great for protection, but a leather case just adds the right touch of elegance. There are fewer leather cases for the Pixel 3 than we’d like to see, but here are the best of the bunch.
Sleek and refined
Bellroy Leather Case
Staff pick
Bellroy’s case feels perfectly luxurious in the hand, with a supple softness and texture you don’t get with anything but natural leather. It offers a slim profile, minimalist design, and comes in either black, navy, or “caramel” brown.

Thinnest around
Totallee Leather
Totallee is known for making ultra-thin cases, usually in hard plastic or soft silicone, but there is a black leather option available for the Pixel 3. If you want a leather case that won’t feel as ridiculously bulky as some of the more classic styles.

Great kickstand
Maxboost Folio-Style Wallet
This black wallet case has white stitching and a triangular magnetic closure, which adds a unique accent. The front cover folds back into a convenient and sturdy kickstand, and there’s room inside for three cards and a bit of cash.

Ruggedly handsome
UAG Monarch Series
This case isn’t entirely leather, but one of the case’s five layers is rich leather panels. Compatible with wireless charging and boasting a 10-year-warranty, this kingly case should be the only case your Pixel 3 ever needs, whether you’re on traversing a treacherous valley or a black-tie gala.

Folio-style wallet
Arae Leather Wallet Case
If you like more of a classic wallet case, then Arae’s case is perfect for cutting down on your pocket carry. It has slots for four cards and a larger cash pocket, and your Pixel 3 is secured in an inner bumper case. Comes in black or rose gold.

Leather accent
Ghostek Exec
Ghostek’s hybrid cases meshes a leather money pouch with a fabric-backed case for the best of all worlds. This case is available in five two-tone styles — including a striking Magenta/Onyx combo — and can fit up to 5 cards.

Leather luxuries
Again, leather cases for the Pixel 3 that are actually good enough to recommend aren’t as widely available as they are for say the Note 10, but there are still some great options to be found out there, including the Bellroy Leather Case Google has partnered with Bellroy on the last four years.
If you prefer your leather case to also act as a wallet, I recommend going with the rather fetching and distinctive Ghostek Exec, because while the entire back isn’t leather, the pouch that is where your fingers and palm will rast most of the time anyway and this means the side bumpers can be a more durable material.
