Hi folks, I just picked up a Pixel 8 Pro on an early black Friday deal. I’ve had my previous OnePlus 9 for way longer than the average timeframe and the same with my Oneplus 6 before that.

Looking at cases, I noticed I recognize very few of the manufacturers, basically just Otterbox and Spigen.

If you gravitate towards a particular case manufacturer, I would love to know:

Who makes the best phone cases in 2024?

No limits on style or form, but I don’t need rhinestone bling or anything like that.

    I’d say dbrand grip. It’s been 4 years since I bought my phone and case and it’s pretty much like new. The case has protected my phone screen from drops that I’m sure would’ve cracked the display if I were using a cheaper case.

      I have to admit they are the best looking recommendation I’ve seen yet. That 13:00 management meeting is going to lose their shit when I walk in with a glow in the dark circuit board case. :D That was a joke, but there really are a lot of cool designs in there. I remember looking at their stuff when I bought my laptop 5-10 years ago.

      I’ll second the grip, have one on my steam deck, phone and my partner’s phone, she likes it a lot, and you can customise it.

      Can vouch for their screen protectors too, one of the cats has chomped on her phone hard enough to crack a protector, screen is fine and the crack was nearly impossible to feel.

        This sounds like a potential peertube channel: “Will it Chomp?” where you let animals go after expensive gadgets and assign ratings based off the resulting carnage. The customization sounds like a key selling point here. I could probably print a trail map on one so I can easily reference my route when I’m out biking! Or, if I wanted to be really obnoxious and weird, I’d print all my terminal shortcuts on it since nothing is more likely to be next to me when I’m at the computer except coffee.

        Thanks for the input.
