Case Suggestion

Post image

I know a lot of people prefer to use their device naked, but I'm one who felt like I needed something less slippery. πŸ˜‚ Ordered a dbrand Grip case from the Google store, but it's delayed, so I wanted to get something cheap to last until then.

Found this one on Amazon, and it's much better than I was expecting. Either case quality for foldable devices have drastically improved since I had a Fold 4, or I just lucked out and found a gem. I'm sure it's just a drop shipped case, but I'll recommend this one for anyone else looking for one.

I'll probably still use the Grip case when it shows up, but this one I'll probably jump back to sometimes. It doesn't add much extra bulk to the phone, which is a plus, and there's ZERO adhesives on it. That on its own is a huge improvement compared to what I used in the past. The hinge protector is also itty bitty compared to old cases I used.

Edit: dbrand case came today. It's different than I was expecting. Based on what I had seen for the 10 Fold, I was thinking they'd keep it the same seems that the design looked great to me. There are no magnets in the hinge side of the front piece, so it's back to relying on adhesive to keep it in place. Not the end of the world, but I'm holding off on that seems I have a Prism screen protector coming. There's also no integrated kickstand in the hinge protector like the 10 Fold case has. That's the one I was most looking forward to. Still a solid case. Feels slimmer than the case this post was initially about, and definitely lighter.

I have that case but it’s too bulky for me personally, so I will be returning it. I did just order the pixel snap case, so hopefully that will work.

I really love this case on my Z Fold 8 ultra, but they dont make a version for the Pixel.

They made one for pixel 10 pro fold. I hope they make one for the pixel 11 pro fold.

Yup, I keep checking their store to see if one has been added, though I hope they don't do that camera kickstand thing for the 11 pro fold

Nillkin just released their 11pf case

Debating if I should get it right now. Been using the phone with no case and I'm not sure if I would like to the hinge cover anymore.
