Best Pixel Fold cases in 2024

Google has gone all bendy on us, bringing out the Pixel Fold, its first foldable smartphone, and the encore is rumored to be in the works. It’s meant to be a platform star, showing how Android can really shine when it comes to form factor. If you’ve ordered one or already own one, you know it’s a special device — your wallet sure knows it as well. That makes it all the more important to make sure your device is protected and the best way to do that is to get a case.

Yes, we’re well aware of the challenges foldables face when it comes to cases, but that doesn’t mean you can’t pick up a great case for the Pixel Fold.

  Best looking Pixel Fold case

  Casetify features more illustrative designs on its Impact series of cases and the Pixel Fold’s booklet form factor is a wonderful canvas for these artworks. It’s MagSafe compatible and shock resistant for drops of up to 4.4ft.

  Best Pixel Fold bumper case

  Otterbox Thin Flex for Pixel Fold

  Otterbox’s Thin Flex series keeps the hard knocks off your Pixel Fold with a MIL-STD-810G rating for its minimal bumper coverage mix of rubber and plastic.

  Best value kickstand case

  Bentoben Google Pixel Fold case

  This case comes in a lot of different colors, is very affordable, and has a handy ring holder that doubles as a kickstand. That way you can put your phone down easily to watch a video or take a call.

What’s the best Google Pixel Fold case overall?

Google is charging $60 for a simple silicone wrap. That’s not an impressive first-party case offering for any phone, much less the Pixel Fold. In fact, you might as well head to a kitchen goods store and buy a Silpat liner instead. Some scissors and tape will do the trick.

Fortunately, there are plenty of options that will either do the same thing for less money or do more… also for less money. Our preferred choice if you’re looking for protection is the VRS Design Terra Guard Modern, but if you’re not necessarily going for the “giant mech” look, consider Casetify’s Impact series which comes in many designs to match your aura.
