Google’s latest offering, the Pixel 6, is well worth buying for Google’s Tensor chip, not to mention that Galaxy Note-esque design, 6.4-inch screen, and all-day adaptive battery. If you’ve invested in Google’s latest, you’ll want to invest in a case to keep your new phone safe. We already covered some of the best Pixel 6 screen protectors, but finding the right case can be a challenge. Do you go for a clear case, a leather wallet case, or a silicone option? To help you decide, we’ve rounded up the best Google Pixel 6 cases available right now, with something here to suit all tastes and budgets.
Opted for the flagship Pixel 6 Pro instead? Check out our picks of the best Google Pixel 6 Pro cases.
Google’s official Pixel 6 case is the one to get if you’re going all-in on the Google experience or if you’re looking for a planet-friendly choice, as it’s made with over 30% recycled materials. This case comes in three colors: Stormy Sky (pictured), Light Rain, or Cotton Candy. The translucent material lets your choice of Pixel 6 color shine through, while the dual-layer case absorbs shock and impact from drops or bumps. Raised edges prevent the screen from touching down and reduce the risk of damage should you drop your phone.
Poetic’s Revolution case offers the rugged protection you need for an active lifestyle. This flexible TPU and solid polycarbonate case is military-grade drop tested, as well as being shockproof, scratch-proof, and impact-resistant. Raised lips and corners keep your screen safe from drops, there’s a built-in kickstand for hands-free viewing or video calls, and it even has a built-in screen protector for an extra level of protection for your screen. This case comes in black, blue, brown, pink, or maroon — though we’d opt for the classic black version.
Spigen’s Ultra Hybrid case is the perfect way to protect your Pixel 6 while also showing off its design. This crystal-clear case is made from polycarbonate and TPU, with Air Cushion Technology adding extra shock absorption to the corners. It’s super slim and has added grip on the sides, making it less likely you’ll drop your phone in the first place. Not a fan of the clear version? It’s also available in black.
Available in a soft purple shade as well as mint green, red, or pink, Olixar’s soft silicone case is the perfect case for those who don’t want a hard-shell case. Providing superior protection against drops, bumps, and scrapes, its soft-touch finish feels great in your hand and adds grip, too. Raised bezels around the edges stop your phone screen from ever touching down, and the custom molded, slim-fit design doesn’t add bulk to your phone either.
Serious about drop protection for your new phone? Caseology’s Parallax case offers military-grade protection and has been drop tested from up to 4 feet. Compatible with screen protectors and wireless charging, this case has a 3D “Hexa Cube” design for added protection and built-in grips on each side. Raised bezels around the screen and camera complete the package. Choose from three two-tone colors: Sage Green, Ash Gray, or red (which is actually black with red accents).
Crave’s Dual Guard case offers excellent shock-absorbent protection for your new Pixel phone. This compact case is made from dual-layer TPU and PC, with tactile buttons and a slim finish that makes it ideal for slipping into a pocket or bag. We love the Blush version, pictured, but it’s also available in more classic black or navy as well as Forest Green, Slate, Berry, Lilac, Aqua, or red.
For those who want a clear case but don’t want to miss out on a fun design, LoveCases’ Gel Case is the perfect solution. This crystal clear case comes in a variety of different designs, but we like this moon and stars version. It’s not all about looks, though — this ultra-thin case is durable and features a non-slip coating, too. It has raised bezels around the screen and camera to protect against scratches, dirt, and dust as well.
A wallet case is a must if you’re traveling light — and also pretty handy if you’re grabbing a coffee after a workout or run. This one from Ghostek is a hybrid TPU and PC case, with a flexible, form-fitting body and hard bumper offering up to 6 feet of military-grade drop protection. The rear of the case has a card holder covered in genuine leather with space for all your cards, cash, ID, or tickets. There are raised bezels around the screen too, so you can place your phone face down while you’re at work or working out without worrying about scratching the screen.
Ringke’s Fusion case shows off your choice of Pixel 6 color while providing superior, crystal-clear protection. This dual-layer TPU and PC case is designed to protect against drops, bumps, and scrapes. A clear bumper runs around the outside for better grip and additional protection should you drop your phone, while a raised bezel around the screen ensures it never touches down.
If 4 feet of drop protection doesn’t sound like enough, check out Incipio’s Grip Case, offering up to 14 feet of protection against drops thanks to Impact Struts and shock-proof technology. This ultra-slim, lightweight case comes in black or Midnight Navy and features a raised bezel around the screen and camera to reduce the risk of damage if you drop your phone. Multidirectional non-slip grips on the side prevent your phone from slipping through your fingers or sliding around when you place it down, and the case has antimicrobial tech built in to prevent 99.9% of surface bacteria and germs.

Are you tired of paying for streaming services you never watch just to get a phone plan feature you actually want? T-Mobile has good news for you! The carrier is rolling out new plans, called T-Mix, in early November to replace its old Experience lineup with a build-your-own perks system called Picks.
The benefits you choose vary from streaming and gaming to food delivery, AI, satellite service, and phone discounts. But if you are satisfied with your existing plan, you can keep it.
Merely days after the iPhone Duo hit the shelves, images of broken screens on the phone started popping up across social media. Until now, it’s been unclear what’s causing the line of defective pixels that appears vertically along the crease, as well as horizontally, on the phone’s inner display.
Apple has finally acknowledged the issue, which has shown up on iPhone Duo units owned by customers as well as demo units in stores. In a statement shared with Bloomberg, Apple says that not all iPhone Duo units are affected and that those that are tend to show the display fault early on. The company added that users who experience problems with their iPhone Duo display should contact AppleCare for a replacement.
Not long ago, Apple treated independent repair like an act of outright hostility. The Cupertino giant locked down parts with serial-number pairing, while repair tools remained firmly out of reach of anyone outside its authorized repair network. More importantly, the company waged a legal and lobbying battle against right-to-repair legislation.
I've covered enough of these fights over the years to know what a shift looks like. That's why what happened in October 2026 genuinely caught me off guard. The day the iPhone Duo went on sale, what may be the most mechanically complex iPhone to date, Apple pulled off a surprising about-face. It published teardown-style repair manuals for a handful of major components.
