Google Pixel 3 Covers and Cases: Protect Your Device in Style
Google Pixel 3 covers and cases help protect the phone’s glass back from scratching or cracking. A cracked back is not just bad aesthetically, but it could also mess with the phone’s Qi wireless charging mechanism. Find a wide range of Google Pixel 3 phone cases and covers on eBay.
Things to consider when buying Google Pixel 3 covers and casesThere is no dearth of Google Pixel 3 covers on the market. Ideally, the Pixel 3 case you’re considering should:
- Be comfortable in the hands and enhance your grip, since the Pixel 3 is slippery glass.
- Have generous openings so that the USB-C port and fingerprint sensor are easily accessible.
- Not interfere with the phone’s wireless charging capabilities.
- Have a protective lip so that there’s some protection for the screen when the phone falls right on its face.
Not all Pixel 3 cases look or work the same. Some may excel in aspects that others may not. Choose a case with a signature trait that matters to you the most.
- Fabric: These cases are slightly flexible plastic shells, wrapped in durable fabric with soft inner lining.
- Durable: Ideal for the outdoors, these cases are usually flexible rubber bumpers with reinforced corners and a lightweight metal blend and polycarbonate backplate.
- Photocentric: Since the Pixel 3 is known for its photography chops, there are protective phone cases that augment the phone’s ability to capture pictures by allowing you to attach tele-portrait, fisheye, and wide-angle lenses to the camera.
- Translucent: If you like how the Pixel 3 looks and you would not like to cover it fully, consider translucent cases that echo the two-tone finish of the Pixel 3.
- Clear: If you’d like to completely show off your Pixel 3, consider clear cases that strike the right balance between your desire to exhibit your device and protection.
The Pixel 3 uses Qi wireless charging, like most other high-end smartphones. This charging standard doesn’t need the phone to be in direct contact with the charging pad or mat. This means a minor buffer between the charger and phone won’t prevent the Pixel from charging wirelessly. Most Pixel 3 cases are not too thick to prevent this wireless charging mechanism.
Should you buy a Google Pixel 3 case with a built-in screen protector?There are rugged, multi-piece cases that offer 360-degree protection. These are meant for people with extra-slippery hands or those who work in tough environments. Most other cases don’t come with a screen protector because that may jack up the prices. Moreover, most phone cases come with a raised lip that mitigates most surfaces from contacting your phone’s screen when it’s dropped.
