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’ve had several Spigen cases for my Pixels and the only thing I don’t like is there isn’t a cover for the USB port so it slowly fills with lint until your charger won’t stay connected.

      Yeah, I had the same situation with my OP9 and a Spigen case. I eventually found out that those little tiny brush-toothpicks seemed to work for cleaning a USB-C port, but it was never quite right and the only reason the port didn’t eventually kill it was because the power button stopped working first.

      I agree, but you can get standalone silicon port covers pretty cheaply, with the bonus that you can use them in other devices too.
