My Spigen thin fit arrived... I'm loving it. Had the Caseology vault to start with. Great case, but much thicker than I wanted. Much prefer this thinner case.
Not super stoked with the completely open top and bottom, but otherwise really love this one.
Have a MNML arriving tomorrow so will see, but think this Spigen is gonna end up winning the battle of the cases for me.
Pics? I'd be interested in top and bottom detailed pics especially.
does it had the little notch inside for a magnet like their s8 thin fit?
It has a slot for metal plate for their magnetic car mounts
this one doesn't cover the front bottom/top edges right?
if so, i'm avoiding it since i've broken a phone due to that before
I have this as well and really like it. I feel like it gives the phone enough protection around the edges even though the top and bottom are open. My only complaint, as stated in another thread, is that I wish the sides were more flush with the phone instead of being so much higher. I think they could have built it to be more flush yet use the corners to give it enough lip to protect the screen when you lay the phone face down. My wife has a neo hybrid on her S8 and this is how it is. Just a better look AND would keep the case from trapping so much lint/dust on the side. Besides that great phone. Love that it has the slot for the metal plate as well as I use a Spigen CD slot mount in my truck.
I've been using the think case for the past 3 days. It's surprisingly light. I'm a bit iffy regarding the amount of protection it offers, so I'm also ordering a rugged case. I do like the indent within the case itself for where you put in the plate for the magnet dock. The other concern is with the amount of lint and dust it will gather around the edges.
I have been using the Spigen Thin case for my Nexus 6 and now on my Pixel 2 XL. I got this case for the good grip that the rubberized material brings. I am very satisfied with this case.

Does this case feel slippery at all like the Maxboost case does?
I tried that case on my OG XL and hated how slippery it was. https://www.amazon.com/Maxboost-Per...415516&sr=8-1&keywords=maxboost+pixel+xl+case

I like super thin cases as well but was annoyed with the open top and bottom. That's why I went with the Maxboost mSnap case. So far I'm loving it. Nice rubber grip and protection on all 4 sides.

I have heard Spigen makes the best cases; they were my top choice for a case Google Pixel 2 XL Case Rugged Armor. However i accidentally ordered the Pixel 2 case instead of the XL case so now have to wait until Wednesday. But the Pixel 2 case looks amazing, and feels great in the hands. One more day...
I had the spigen thin fit for the 6p and now i have it for the pixel 2 xl and it is almost the same except that it does sit a bit higher on the sides. it is fine cause it makes it easier to handle.
This will be my go to case until i can find something better which will probably be very hard to do.

I went through quite a few cases and ended up purchasing the Nillikin case and absolutely love it. I needed a case with added grip and some camera protection.

It does not protect the top and bottom like many snap on cases but is thin and has a raised area around the camera. I'd be comfortable laying the phone on a flat surface now. I have the spigen rugged armor which is thicker and protects the entire phone.

Looks sweet. Thanks.
Can't comment on Nillkin or Spigen cases, never had them. I went Ringke Fusion on the LG G4 and have never looked back. Received my v20 case today (clear/smoke) and put it on. It's VERY marginally recessed compared to where the camera bump is. Is perfectly flat/balanced on an even surface, so you can operate the phone one-handed on the desk if you need to.
My recommendation is to leave the plastic film on the back of the phone where the camera is, any protection you can give it without affecting photo quality will help. I just need a good screen protector now...
Hope that helps.

Nillkin also makes one that is a TPU case. I had it on my N6P & it was really nice. I opted for the Encased this time because I wanted a hard case, TPU never keeps it's full shape after a while..
Spigen... very nice case
Spigen rugged armor.. it's thin, nice looking and protects all that is needed
http://www.spigen.com/collections/lg/products/rugged-armor-lg-v20-case
I tried the Spigen Liquid Crystal Case and it is the most minimalist but doesn't have enough protection in my opinion.
I ended up returning it not for that reason, but due to the "yellow" tone of the case itself...I contacted Spigen and they are looking into replacements.
I purchased the Ringke [Fusion] Clear PC Back TPU Bumper in Smoked Black...perfect fit and better protection that looks great with the Titan V20.

If you want something with protection while being slim, I'd suggest the UAG LG V20 Plasma Feather-Light Rugged. Been using it since I got my V20 and it's slim and light with plenty of grip, originally I thought that it'll be big and bulky like the OtterBox cases but it's slim enough and knowing it's UAG you don't really have to worry about protection. Even tho it's pricy it's worth it.
You can consider using the Verus crystal bumber case, this and others like spigen to name a few are your only option, just keep the protection film on for added protection, for me I also added a tempered glass protector for both camera lens without any affect what so ever.

I ended up buying this case. It arrived today and my search is now over. There's simply no way a V20 case could be slimmer than the Nillikin while still offering camera protection. It's awesome. EXACTLY what I was looking for, so thank you!
The top and bottom are protected well enough with the lip extensions on each end.
I bought this off aliexpress, and it's pretty great. perfect fit and some improvement in grip.
http://www.nillkin.com/english/proshow.asp?mid=2&sid=0&tid=0&cid=1&scid=&id=6497&page=1
downside is, it's glossy and quite the fingerprint magnet especially in a humid country like SG, and the alignment is slightly off for the fingerprint/home button.
otherwise, the port covers are awesome and it'll definitely prevent the lint buildup.
looking to get a tempered glass next.
also, for SG sets, it comes with a promotional pack of 3 back protectors and 2 iRing and a screen protector. will upload pictures soon!

I agree, one of the thinniest case around with the best protection, the case has a built in dust cap for both the charging port and headphone socket.

To me the long screen edges of the phone on your picture look raised up higher than the case and exposed to possible impact.
Being using the Spingen Ultra Hybrid S for the past 4 days. covers the corners pretty well and comes with a kickstand which id very useful. Picked it up on ebay for less than $16. worth a try.
Got this one
It has a premium kickstand from Zenton, it is one heck of a deal for $7.95!!! On AMAZON!
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06ZYXXBD6
According to pics noone knows what I am talking about or make better pics.
After some searching it seems these may be worth a try:
-Otterbox defender
-Speck Candyshell Grip
-Unicorn Beetle
-Caseology Vault
Trust me, from Note7 experience, this is very important.

I bought a Gear4 case in store for £29.99 because I wanted a case straight away but now realise that as big and rugged as it looks, the screen is raised above the edges so any side impact will shatter the screen.
Especially with how breakable s8 is:

It is not something to be taken for granted. Try it and let us know. A review did say it has raised edges but what the author means is not clear. Also this case for Note7 model did NOT protect the long edges.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MS7TMRY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
That one has the best edge protection I have found. I got the same case on my Note 7 and my S7E for the very reason that it comes up over the edges more than most cases.
I will say that it came up higher (actually taller than the main screen) on the Note 7. On the S8+ it doesn't come up quite as high on the sides, but still is far better than any other cases for protecting the sides short of a case that is so bulky it basically makes the phone twice as big as it is.
Had a clear thin Spigen case...finger prints were driving me crazy and did not feel safe with that case, so I just go the Spigen Tough Armor Galaxy S8 Plus Case with Kickstand and Extreme Heavy Duty Protection and Air Cushion Technology for Galaxy S8 Plus (2017) - Gunmetal from Amazon for $16.99. It feels good in the hand, has a great look (got over not seeing my orchard gray phone back) the cut out are for camera, finger print sensor and heart rate sensor makes it easy to find location to use finger sensor...do not fumble around trying to figure out where my finger goes...fast unlock. provides great clearance for phone face down.
Wireless charging works great with it....have not received my Gear VR yet, so do not know if case adds distance from face to change picture and degree view.
I do have a car holder that uses a magnet and a metal plate you put behind the case...the plate effect wireless charging...has been the case with other cases and phones.
Very happy with this case (have not tried a screen protector with it yet either)
Any new information here?

Your link is a page not found on amazon, cute dog though
Lifeproof has a full envelope for $90 but I want the holster clip like my Otterbox. For now making due with a Defender, but leaning towards biting the bullet on the Lifeproof for the full screen protection.
I would suggest a Speck Presidio
Have one, awesome protection so dont worry it you drop it.
So my MNML case got shipped today, but I just seen a post on reddit about the case not covering the camera bump on the Pixel 2 XL.

I can't guarantee that the pics are of the final product, but I thought I'd give a heads up to anyone else that has ordered the case.
The product discription says:
PERFECT CUTOUTS - The case fits your Pixel 2 XL like a glove, exposed buttons and ports are perfectly cut giving you full easy access. The camera cutout has a raised bump to protect your camera on surfaces. The front of the case has a raised rim to protect your phone’s screen from scratching.

Keep us updated when you hear from them.. Indeed that will be a disappointment..
This is the only reason why i did not order mnml this time. Loved it on my pixel xl. if i want to set my phone done on a metal surface or stone then i am worried that the camera could crack or that the housing around it would scratch.... Still searching for a thin black case that isnt flimsy like TPU. One like this or one that is maybe made similar to the original Nexus case for the 6P. That wasnt very thin , but it was made from a more sturdy and rigid rubber. Also FYI, the peel case and the mnml case are the exact same case. I went through this last year on the Pixel XL 1.
thanks for this.... Had it in my Amazon cart waiting for reviews of it. Gonna hold off and wait to see what Diztronic brings
The person made an update to the post
"EDIT: Ok, so apparently the bump around the fingerprint sensor is large enough that the camera bump doesn't touch the surface. It's not ideal but at least it won't touch on flat surfaces."
Nope no raised bumped around the camera lens. Lens and case are almost flush. Just got mine. Pics attached. Buttons are a lil hard to get to. Case side panel is too flushed to the buttons, if that makes any sense. Also its pretty slippery compared to the actual back of the 2 XL.
https://imgur.com/a/psSRB
It will do for now, for me until Peel ships there's and I can compare.
Well crap. I ordered 2 a long time ago and they just shipped as well. I'm not liking the pictures and what I'm seeing. Guess I'll just keep the case I have on it now
So MNML got back to me.
"When you place the case backside down the raised fingerprint sensor will protect the camera."
Pretty disappointed.
How does the case grip feel in hand? Less, equal, or more grippy than bare phone?

By looking at the back, that's what I thought might be going on. Seems a little questionable though.
Except nobody holds the phone in a way that the bottom lands first!
People hold the phone by the middle or the bottom and often than not the top camera part lands on the surface first. But that's not the issue here, the issue is that you shouldn't have to be concerned with how your phone lands after putting on a case!
A truly bold move by them when the market is flooded with $2 cases from AliExpress without this issue. Most people will opt for a little thicker case from Spigen or whoever to protect the best aspect of pixel phones - the camera.
Fix your ****.
My biggest issue was that the mnml case caused significant scratching on the base of my pixel XL first gen. It made little specks through the black and was showing silver. I think it is because the case want tight like a traditional tpu case that stretches. I'm currently using one of the China cases. I needed something to hold me over until I can find a thin case that works.
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
I've had the MNML case on my xl for 6 months with no issues of scratching at all. As far as the xl2's MNML case and lack of hump around camera; I'm ok with the hump being around the fp sensor. Interesting as to why they didn't choose to"hump" the camera tho.. possibly aesthetics and feel?
Got mine in yesterday. I'll be returning them. While they are thin and sleek it doesn't protect anything and as prior mention. It doesn't have a protection around the camera.
I love the thinness of this case, hate that there isn't a completely clear option. Has anyone found something like this? Ultra thin case (not raised on the front bezel) that's completely clear?
I've been using this case since Saturday and, while I love the minimal feel, I don't think I'll be using it long term. The button cutouts are precise, which would normally be a good thing. However, in this case the case is slightly thicker than the buttons protrude from the phone so they actually become recessed. The precise cutout makes it even harder then to discern which buttons you're feeling and pressing, at least for me, requires using my fingernail. Totally kills it for me.
I reached out to Peel and they said there case will have protection for the camera.

While I did just get it tonight, I'm in the other camp.... I actually love it. It's exactly what I want, a skin with no edges to deal with.
I know all of the complaints when I ordered it, so I guess I knew I would like it.
I pre-ordered 2 of these cases weeks ago, just got them last night. They actually sent me 4 total for some reason, so I have 2 clear and 2 really blue. I'll post some pics in a bit. The fps bump does keep the camera from touching what the phone is sitting on though. This case offers no protection other than scratches, I already knew this though. This will be my weeknight weekend case. The buttons are totally flush with this case so it's hard to tell what your pushing, just FYI.
Just looking to see everyone's a experience with these
I have one and Idk if my hands are small but I find its hard to grip and feels also slippery...
Just me?
I have the light gray one with the mint green power button on my white 3 XL and yeah it's slippery. I love the aesthetics and feel, but it is slippery. When I prop the phone up against something to watch a video in landscape mode, it just slides out.
I had the fabric case for the 2 XL and returned it because it was indeed slippery in the hand it was also more chunky than the current generation. Fast forward to today, I own the spigen rugged case for my new 3XL, and I bought the fabric case to give it a try. It's a lot more slim, and coverage on the front corners is questionable if it took a direct hit when dropped. I can say that it is not so much slipper in the hand. It is moreso grippy than last year's, but still doesnt grip on hard surfaces like when being propped up as one of the other replies suggested. For now, the spigen is staying in a drawer at home. I prefer the look, feel, and prestige of the fabric case.

Love the fabric case! Also had one for 2xl and as nice as that one was, the newer one is better. It's slimmer, grippier (not a word), and has better coverage along bottom. It looks great and the fit is perfect, along with the buttons being nice to press too.
The only downside, mentioned by others but not necessarily shared by me, is that the lip is on the smallish side.
I don't have an issue with the lip. If you lay it on a flat surface the glass does not touch so that's good by me.
I also have the Bellroy leather case (super nice) and just ordered the Simply Carbon Fiber case which I'm hoping is as nice as it looks.
im using the indigo on my pixel 3 xl , but i just noticed something i took the phone out of the cover to wipe it ,
i saw a deep scratch on the left side , i did not use my phone without cover . but i think a dust was inside the side and with squeeze feature the phone got scratched.
always check inside the cover

Is the lip of the spigen tough armor equal on all 4 sides? or does it dip like most others? I guess because of the curved sides it has to dip? Hybrids and Caseology both are not raised up at the sides.

It's raised on the top and bottom but not on the sides. But still plenty of clearance when you put your phone face down on a flat surface with a glass screen protector on it.

It's only as thick/thin as the case is and the top, bottom, and buttons are open. It's more of an increase grip, scratch, and drop to a rug/carpeted area protection type of case for me.
Goodbye case, hello Dbrand.

very sharp looking!
I'm really liking my rhinoshield solidsuit. Looks and feels good.
And it gives me some confidence when my old hands inevitably drop this beauty.
Lmao!!
I ordered both the Spigen Tough Armor and the CYRILL Stone. The Tough undoubtedly offers better protection (it's better padded and provides better protection around the edges of the screen), but, understandably, it's a lot bulkier. It makes an already big phone feel enormous. The Cyrill is much sleeker, so that's what I'm using daily. The phone just feels a lot better in the hand with the Cyrill than with the Tough Armor. Additionally, the edges of the Cyrill don't rise as high along the sides of the screen. This is bad because it doesn't offer as much protection for the screen, but it's good because it provides a much nicer experience when swiping/scrolling on the edges. The buttons on the Cyrill are also better. All of the buttons on the Tough Armor are raised to the same level in an almost unbroken line, making hard to find them by touch.
I may swap the out for the when I'm doing something that risks the phone more than usual, but I think the Cyrill is probably fine for daily use.
In case folks haven't seen it, Android Police has a nice rundown of some their favorite cases for the P6Pro:

I happened to have a bellroy voucher so ended up with their official leather case . Really happy actually, feels good, gives good grip, offers more protection than I thought with a good lip around the screen. Lovely soft inside , side buttons are really good .

Really wish Pitaka would make one like they did for the Pixel 3/4 series, https://www.ipitaka.com/collections/magez-case-for-google-pixel-4. I asked and they said no.
