« Last post by noisyturtle on Sat, 18 May 2024, 15:55:56 »Google makes some nice cases for the Pixel. I had a denim one I really liked, that wore and scuffed like pants in my pocket making it look cooler the longer I had it.
I just get my cases off Etsy so I can customize and find exactly what I want. Currently on my Galaxy 23 I have one made by an artist from wood burl and acrylic.
Used to be I'd go for some expensive, bulkey, high defense case. Ottors and Rhinos and Armadillos and such. But I realized the margin of protection from a regular drop height (like a table) is pretty much going to be the same between a bulkey one and a slim one that fits nicely in your pocket. My phone isn't going under busses or wrestling gorillas, just need it to not break from a table-height fall. So slim cases do their job just as well as some 900lb kevlar and steel military-grade bomb shelter for my phone that feels like a brick in my pants.
