Spigen Thin Fit Designed for Google Pixel 3a XL Case (2019) - Black

It baffles me how people on here can purchase a case that clearly markets itself as a "Slim Fit" case then bash it for not providing their phone enough protection.I gave it 5 stars because it fits the description that is clearly defined in its bio. It is very slim and very comfortable to hold. I like that it protects the bottom portion of the phone (had a drop on a previous phone with a case that did not and it caused chips). The squeeze to activate function appears to work properly. I like that the side buttons are exposed. I like the raised edges. I like that it does what it is meant to do, provide a clean look that is comfortable to hold while preventing dings/scratches from everyday use.

This case is fantastic. I love the color of my Pixel, and I hate putting a case on it because I want to display the color. I went through a few clear cases, one by this brand, but over time they turn brown from age or blue from my jeans pocket. Then I found this! I was worried it wouldn't be thick enough but it's thicker than I expected, but not bulky. It's the EXACT same color as the phone. It's survived a decent number of drops, and took a long time before it actually cracked on one corner, but again that was from me dropping it lol. Definitely will buy this one again when I need a replacement.

In a perfect world, phones would be built durable enough to not require cases, allowing you to enjoy the design aesthetic that the phone maker intended. With that being said, this Spigen case is above average. It is not particularly slim but I definitely would not call it bulky. It protects the 3a XL well and I'm assuming the slits in the corners allow for the case to not crack due to dropping it. The slits are too narrow for anything penetrate can cause damage to the phone. That is my personal opinion on this design of case. The case is open where the power and volume buttons are located. I like this because it makes it easier to find the buttons without having to look at the phone or it's orientation. Being a budget Pixel, there are not a lot of options for cases. This Spigen is my recommendation for someone who wants a minimalist case with adequate protection for your device. I would have given it 5 Stars if it was just a little more slim.

I think this case is pretty good for a simple little case. It was very cheap, like around 10 but dollars, and it is the special color of the 3a. It is both smooth and slightly tacky feeling. It is somewhat hard to describe, but it's like sticky, but nothing else really sticks to it. Just my hands. It doesn't retain dirt and has no sharp edges. It's very comfortable to hold such.One important thing to note is that I can't activate the squeeze feature of the phone anymore. This doesn't really matter to me because I do not need that feature.

The media could not be loaded. Pros:It's white and matches the back of my pixel 3a xl. It doesn't obscure or hide the vital buttons and parts like the fingerprint, camera and volume switches.Cons:It's a metallic case with little flexibility. So when you try to squeeze the case in order to activate Active Edge aka Google Assistant, it won't work. I'm also skeptical that the metallic case will do a good job of protecting the phone against drops.For those 2 reasons, you're better off finding a case that is rubber in nature to allow for the squeezing as well as offer better protection. Not worth a buy for me :(

I really like this cover. It is not heavy duty protection. I could probably live without a case but I wanted a better grip on my phone. Especially with large phones where your grip position has to change often. I think this case would protect the phone in short, infrequent drops to a hard surface (but all it takes is that perfect, or imperfect landing and the phone suffers.) If you don't need more than that and you like a thin case this one will do.

Looks really great. It was easy to get my phone in the case. I used it for a few minutes and decided to return it. Sleek and slippery that I dropped my phone twice on the rug but still. You need to have a popsocket with this case. When I was removing the case I almost broke it. NOT EASY TO REMOVE PHONE FROM CASE!

Honestly I want to love this case, when I ordered my phone I was unable to get the purpleish color, but wound up having to get black, so I immediately ordered this case to remedy that. I've gone through two of these cases in the last year, which doesn't sound bad honestly, but I replaced them every time they were starting to crumble beyond use.I've never noticed a specific grip issue, as I use a pop socket, but I do notice how slippery the case gets.If your phone falls out of your pockets, or you drop it even semi frequently I'd look into another case, it immediately cracks the first time it hits the ground and just gets worse every time.
