Top products from r/Pixel4

ZAGG InvisibleShield is usually a very solid screen protector. I've used them over the years multiple times. They also have a lifetime replacement policy I believe. I'd link it, but I can't find it on Amazon yet. I ordered mine from Best Buy.

Someone also posted this brand in another thread. Looks good. Hopefully one of these is available in the UK for you. They also have a clear case with a tempered glass back, which I will be checking out.

I have these 3 cases:

Moko - Pretty thin. The texture is ok. Buttons are very flexible. Holes and cutouts well aligned. Slips into and out of my pocket nicely. This is what I use when indoors mostly.

Caseology - Clear back is nice and I think the case looks nice overall. The back is smooth but the sides are not, so has good grip. Buttons are pretty flexible. Kind of clunky but seems like it would offer good protection. I use this one when out and about.

Caseology Skyfall for Google Pixel 4 XL Case

Spigen - This is the most bulky of all. Hard shell over a TPU body. Extra cushion in the back. Buttons are very stiff, makes it difficult to adjust volume. Not sure if it affects side squeeze (I haven't used that much, I forget its available). With this case on, my phone does not charge on my car wireless charger though it does on my other wireless chargers. I think this would give the most protection but because of the buttons I don't use it much.

I did some research and it looked like ESR was a pretty good brand. I bought these two:

ESR Screen Protector

ESR Glass Backed Clear Case

If you use a tripod or something else to hold the phone perfectly still and wait about 10 seconds you should see a toast notification at the top of your screen saying that astrophotography mode is enabled.

I found this tripod to be fairly good and include a remote:

Have this one on order to see if it improves charging and mount security at all:

I went for this one. I don't need XXL bumbers as I never drop my phone and I want a slim classic looking one. Pretty similar to yours I must say !

I ended up being disappointed with it only because of its in compatibility with the Pixel wireless charging stand. The kickstand makes it too thick to stay on there. There is a clear warning on the product's page about this, but I thought it looked shallow enough to work. Not my brightest move. If it wasn't for that, I'd still be using it.

I ended up switching to case that doesn't have a kickstand, unfortunately, but I've been happy with it so far.

This one's keeps the sensors uncovered 👍

I bought this as an alternative to Moment. Have yet to test it out.

I've been on a hunt for a case that I love. So far I've tried 3 cases with 3 more on the way. Here are my thoughts so far with links:


Google fabric case - Personally I don't like the feel much. At least not for constant contact.


Casology - Clear back is nice to show of my "G" but it's a chunky case and very very smooth. Feels like all my had oil is transferring. So far this one is what I use. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VFSBQDH/ref=cm_sw_r_fm_apa_i_.ciUDbZEH0BEX


Kqimi - Extremely thin/slim case! Got it in Gravel Black but the texture is sort of like a tough felt. I don't like it. I'm going to try a different texturebin this same case.

Again, 3 more on the way.

The Speck Presidio Grip on my P4 XL solves the slippery problem for me 100%. 😍 this case!

I paired the case w/ this tempered glass screen protector.

Got his cheap case from Amazon, seems like it'll do the job.

Is your Samsung cable Usb C to C? I guess the problem might be caused by different resistor values in Usb A to C cables. Usb C to C cables are guaranteed to work because they are standardized.

I'll try to find other Usb A to C cables to test whether my guess is correct. Kinda weird because while there isn't any significant change to the charging technology, the older Pixel works with the cable while the new one doesn't.

For the headphone jack adapter, I think you need to use an active adaptor (with in-built DAC) for Pixel phones. Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07J28BYT9/ It wouldn't work if your adaptor is passive. Although admittedly I haven't tested my headphones with Pixel 4 yet since I don't usually use them, so I may be wrong.

I bought this so I could charge while listening to music and podcasts in my car (no Bluetooth for media in my car, only for calls). Volume is good and no feedback from the charging.
