WIRED has been testing MagSafe accessories for years; you should totally take advantage of the vast ecosystem with your Pixel 10. Whether you want a magnetic wallet or phone tripod, there\u2019s a corresponding WIRED guide with plenty of tried-and-true recommendations. Most of our picks should work with the Pixel 10 series.

<\/p>\nOther Screen Protectors to Consider<\/h2>\n\n![\"Zagg](\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6913a4362755c537334db9bb\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/Zagg%2520Glass%2520Elite%2520SOURCE%2520Julian%2520Chokkattu.png\"\/)

<\/span>Photograph: Julian Chokkattu<\/span><\/div>\n<\/figure>\nZagg Glass Elite, Glass Elite Privacy, and XTR4 for $50\u2013$60<\/a>:<\/strong> Zagg has a streamlined and intuitive installation process; my application was perfect. The Glass Elite ($50)<\/a> uses aluminosilicate glass that\u2019s neither too thick nor terribly thin, and the edges are rounded, so they don’t feel sharp. (They don’t quite extend all the way past the bezels.) I don’t love the notch for the selfie camera because it stands out quite a bit. The Glass Elite Privacy ($55)<\/a> is a two-way privacy screen protector, meaning folks on either side of you can’t see what you’re looking at (though someone standing above you can). Text can look a bit fuzzy if you look closely with this protector, and you take a small hit to overall screen brightness, but it’s an otherwise solid option. Finally, the XTR4 ($60)<\/a> covers more of the display, uses a stronger tempered glass, and strips away blue light (though whether that’s really helpful remains up for debate). Sadly, for all of these options, you only get one protector in the box.<\/p>\n<\/p>\nSpigen GlasTR EZ Fit Tempered Glass Screen Protector (2-pack) for $20<\/a>:<\/strong> This is the best bang for your buck for screen protection. Spigen gives you two tempered glass protectors in the box, and its application tool makes installation mistakes nearly impossible. There’s even a squeegee tool to push out air bubbles. All that for $20.<\/p>\n
UAG Glass Shield Screen Protector for $40<\/a>:<\/strong> UAG includes the usual wet wipe, dust-removal sticker, and microfiber cloth. There’s also a plastic shell you place atop your Pixel to use as a guide when applying the tempered glass screen protector. It’s not the easiest method I’ve tried, as there’s room for some error (and potential to get grime or a smudge on the underside as you apply), but it was a fairly quick and painless installation nonetheless, and the air bubbles disappeared quickly.<\/p>\n<\/p>\nMous Tempered Glass Screen Protector (2-pack) for $30<\/a>:<\/strong> This is another pretty standard and average screen-protector experience. You get two in the box, plus a caselike installation guide, a microfiber cloth, an air-bubble squeegee, and some dust stickers. Mous’ packaging means it’s hard to store the spare protector in the included box, but otherwise, I liked this protector.<\/p>\nOtterBox Glass Screen Protector for $40<\/a>:<\/strong> Installation here is super straightforward: Put the frame on your phone, slide out the backing, and press down on the screen protector with your finger. Wait a few seconds, and the whole thing is perfectly applied. For the price, I wish this came with two protectors, but I like it fine otherwise.<\/p>\nOther Cases We Like<\/h2>\n\n![\"Bellroy](\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6913a4f88ce7d53a409b7b6c\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/Bellroy%2520Pixel%2520Leather%2520Folio%2520for%2520Pixel%252010%2520Pro%2520Fold%2520SOURCE%2520Julian%2520Chokkattu.png\"\/)

A slot on the flap\u2019s interior can hold a credit card or two; the flap stays shut by magnetically sticking to the front edges of the Fold. It’s an elegant look, but the bend when you flip open the Folio is a bit too thick and makes holding the phone feel unstable. Using it with the phone fully open isn’t too bad, but the whole thing doesn’t feel incredibly protective.<\/p>\n\n\n![\"Casetify](\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6913a49e9b548de3bd8f2bf3\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/Casetify%2520Impact%2520Magnetic%2520Case%2520for%2520Pixel%252010%2520SOURCE%2520Julian%2520Chokkattu.png\"\/)

<\/span>Photograph: Julian Chokkattu<\/span><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\nCasetify Impact Magnetic Case for $52<\/a>:<\/strong> Casetify leaves a bad taste in my mouth after it was caught stealing artwork from Dbrand and JerryRigsEverything<\/a>.

It is<\/em> one of the few places that offer many design options for Pixel phones<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n![\"Casetify](\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6913a4d9fcca7216b08e260d\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/Casetify%2520Impact%2520Magnetic%2520Case%2520for%2520Pixel%252010%2520Pro%2520Fold%2520SOURCE%2520Julian%2520Chokkattu.png\"\/)

<\/span>Photograph: Julian Chokkattu<\/span><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\nCasetify Pixel 10 Pro Fold Impact Magnetic Case for $60<\/a>:<\/strong> This case is more protective than the Bellroy above, but the lip around the screen is a little too thick for my taste. The design makes swiping in from the edges of the screen difficult. If that doesn\u2019t bother you, you’ll appreciate that Casetify doesn’t use adhesives all over the case, but only in one spot (it provides extra stickers in the box if it comes off). It’s one of the only folding case options with dozens of fun designs to choose from. The $60 price is lower than many of its peers, and there’s a magnet for Pixelsnap wireless charging. It’s a shame the clear version Casetify sent me attracts so much dust and lint.<\/p>\n\n\n![\"Zagg](\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6913a47c0b3a50678e135fd5\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/Zagg%2520Crystal%2520Palace%2520Snap%2520SOURCE%2520Julian%2520Chokkattu.png\"\/)
<\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n<\/p>\nZagg Crystal Palace Snap<\/p>\n
<\/span>Photograph: Julian Chokkattu<\/span><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\nZagg Crystal Palace Lite for $30<\/strong><\/a> and Crystal Palace Snap for $50<\/a>:<\/strong> A super-simple, no-frills clear case, this Zagg option will do the job. There are two versions of the case. If you don’t care about the Qi2 magnetic function of your Pixel, go for the Lite that doesn’t have magnets baked in. (No Qi2 magnetic accessories will stick to it, and I’m not sure why you’d want to kill that functionality, especially since you can get magnetic cases for less than $20.) Alternatively, you can buy the Crystal Palace Snap, which adds the classic magnetic ring on the back. It also has textured edges for better grip. Either way, the buttons are responsive, the edges are nicely raised over the screen, and the clear back shows off your Pixel’s color. I still think Dbrand’s Ghost Case 2.0 is the better clear case, because the Snap seems to pick up scuffs easily.<\/p>\nZagg Rainier Snap Magnetic Case for $70<\/a>:<\/strong> Also available for the Pixel 10 Pro XL for $70<\/a>, this rugged case has two pieces. Plop your Pixel into the thick back piece, and snap the front polycarbonate frame over top. It feels very rugged and protective without adding too much bulk, but the design leaves a lot to be desired. (It\u2019s just a bit too tactical<\/em> for me.) There’s a sizable lip over the screen for great glass protection, even if it means swiping in from the edges is a bit trickier. The buttons are responsive but require a tiny bit more force to press. At least there are built-in magnets so you can take advantage of Qi2.<\/p>\n<\/p>\nMous Clarity Pixelsnap Case for $70<\/a>:<\/strong> This is my second-favorite clear case after Dbrand’s Ghost 2.0. There’s a thick bumper around the phone to absorb impacts, a solid magnetic connection, and a nice lip around the screen to keep it off the ground. The buttons are clicky, too.<\/p>\nOtterBox Symmetry Clear Pixelsnap Case for $60<\/a>:<\/strong> This is a nice, clear case that’s also Pixelsnap-certified. The cutouts are accurate, the edges are slightly raised over the screen, and it offers a decent grip. If you prefer a completely clear case without a separate bumper, this will satisfy.<\/p>\nSpigen Parallax for $19<\/a>, Nano Pop for $19<\/a>, Tough for $20<\/a><\/strong>, and Liquid Air Pixelsnap Cases for $18<\/a>:<\/strong> I’ve tried several Spigen cases, and the Rugged Armor is my top pick. These other options have different designs, but they’re solid cases for the cost. I found the Parallax slippery, and the sides also felt a bit cheap. The Nano Pop had a decently grippy texture on the edges, but the Liquid Air is one of my favorite Spigen designs. The buttons are just a little stiffer than I’d like. The Tough has a built-in kickstand that’s nice, although it can be difficult to pop out if you have short nails. These are minor gripes, though. They’re great cases for $20 or less, especially considering they’re all Made for Google\u2013certified.<\/p>\nUAG Pathfinder Pixelsnap Case for $60<\/a>:<\/strong> Someone probably likes how this case looks. That person is not me, but clearly, there’s a market for this styling. If you fall in that camp, there’s not much about the Pathfinder to complain about, except I found the buttons slightly stiffer than usual. It checks off all the other boxes, with a raised lip over the screen, but I just don’t find it that attractive.<\/p>\nBurga Tough Case for $55:<\/strong><\/a> This is one of the few nonmagnetic cases I’ve tested for the Pixel 10 series. If you absolutely don’t care for Qi2 and magnets in these phones, this is a perfectly fine case, and Burga has tons of designs you can choose from. The exterior is a hard plastic shell, but the phone is wrapped in a soft rubbery shell that absorbs impacts. The buttons are fairly clicky\u2014but not the most responsive\u2014and there’s a solid lip around the screen.<\/p>\nPoetic Guardian for $27<\/strong><\/a>, Spartan for $26<\/strong><\/a>, and Revolution Case for $25<\/a>:<\/strong> One point to note is that Poetic includes a screen protector that embeds itself into the case, like old-school cases that offered full protection. You can opt not to use it, as the case will work with or without the protector. The Revolution doesn’t have any magnets but has a built-in kickstand and a cover that can completely protect your cameras; I find this a little extreme, so I don’t care for it. It also, in my humble opinion, looks hideous. The Guardian looks much better, with a thick bumper, raised edges, and a covered port. The buttons are a little stiff, but at least it has built-in magnets for Qi2 (not certified). Finally, the Spartan (for Pixel 10a) has a built-in MagSafe ring stand that lets you use MagSafe accessories, grip your phone securely, and prop it up in kickstand mode. The buttons could be more responsive, but it’s an option worth considering if you want a multitool sort of phone case.<\/p>\nAvoid These Cases<\/h2>\n\n\n![\"Best](\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6913a4168ce7d53a409b7b6a\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/Peak%2520Design%2520Gnar%2520Case%2520SOURCE%2520Julian%2520Chokkattu.png\"\/)
