I was very pleased with the Note 4's case and expected the same experience with the Pixel 2XL. About six months in, I am not disappointed. The case has remained a nice, clean black colour. It's a classy look and I appreciate the smooth, matte surface. It has sustained minimal surface damage from normal wear and tear that does not majorly affect the product's aesthetic. The case does not obstruct the charging outlet, the microphone, the fingerprint scanner, or any other features. The buttons are enclosed within the case, but operate normally and have sustained no damage. I'm going to go ahead and address some of the complaints from the negative reviews - and frankly, it's clear that some of the people reviewing just have no idea what they are doing. [The case doesn't fit my phone.] This phone case is for the Pixel 2XL, specifically, and is a nice, tight fit on this phone while being flexible enough to remove without difficulty, if necessary. Please do not purchase this case for the Pixel, Pixel XL, or Pixel 2 and then complain that it doesn't fit. [The case covers my headphone jack.) The Pixel 2XL does not have a headphone jack. ["Magnets don't work."] This case does not contain a magnet. If you want to adhere a magnet to the exterior of this case for use with a phone mount, that shouldn't be a problem; the surface is smooth enough. I've had a Raichu sticker on mine for a few months. [Case is infused with a fragrance.] I can assure you that it isn't. This sounds like some sort of incident occurred in transit that no one was willing to take accountability for. [Case is slippery/difficult to grip.] I have no frame of reference for what these folks are comparing this case against in terms of grip. It has an almost rubberized feel and is very smooth and soft to the touch. I would say that it's about on par with the silicone Roocase I have on my work phone in terms of grip and certainly provides more friction than the bare Pixel 2XL, which feels like an impossibly thin, glassy object to me. I'm not much of a butter fingers and I take care of my stuff. I have never dropped a phone in a toilet, for example (though I will admit to once falling into the ocean with a phone in my pocket - I live in California, these things happen). I will say that I drop my phone about as often as I would anything else that I spend so much time holding in my hand. I cannot blame this on the texture of the case. If you are looking for a case with ridges or a textured edge, this one might not be a good fit for you. [I dropped my phone once with this case on and the screen broke.] No phone case will offer perfect protection and the ratings that companies brag on are no guarantee. I also saw a review on here from someone who claimed their phone was run over by a car and sustained no damage with this case on. I wouldn't expect either of these to be typical experiences. This case is somewhat flexible, with a rubbery texture, rounded corners, and a slight lip around the screen that prevents it from directly contacting a surface if placed screen-down. While it can be expected to provide some hardware protection and minor screen protection, I would still recommend using a screen protector. They are inexpensive and will protect the screen from scratching, if nothing else. I am using this phone case in conjunction with an amFilm glass screen protector. My phone has still taken its lumps. I am a professional driver and I am always on the go. I keep my work phone and my professional phone in the same back pocket, where they rub and knock together and are regularly sat on. I have dropped my phone between seats, onto car floors, and onto the cement floor of the garage while switching between vehicles. I don't make any special effort to set my phone down gently. I drop it into cup holders and toss it onto tables without a second thought. Through it all, this case has sustained only very minor scratching and rubbed smooth in a couple places (see images) and while I managed to break the screen protector once, the phone itself has sustained no damage. To whom should I assign the credit for this durability? To Spigen's rugged case? To amFilm's tempered glass? To Google's product for just being well-made on its own? And if I do eventually manage to break my phone screen or damage the phone's hardware, whom should I blame? Overall, I have no concerns over the durability of this case or the level of protection it provides and am comfortable vouching for it. Review: Great Case, Just 1 Small Knicknack - Arrived on time and in an orderly manner. Despite the rainy weather, the package was in very good condition. After opening the product, the case was had a very flimsy yet sturdy feel to it. The surface and inside of the case was smooth and shiny, so there weren't any marks, scratches, or scuffs that seemed noticeable. Putting on the case to the phone, it was a perfect fit. The lip of the case is extended by a couple of millimeters to prevent any screen drops while keeping a nice minimal look and feel to it. The charging port, the top microphone, and camera cutouts are perfect. The power and the volume buttons on the side of the case are very clicky and tactile. Overall, amazing case. Very sleek and professional. Love the carbon fiber look to the top and bottom portion of the backside of the case. However, one small thing is bothering me. The cutout for the fingerprint sensor of the phone is off. It's not a perfect circle so some areas around the sensor show more than others. Although. I can't say the same thing about other cases that other people have received. Looking past that, however, you shouldn't be focusing on the back of your phone all the time so it shouldn't be a problem. Good looking and impressive case. ## Features - Signature matte black look with carbon fiber and gloss detailing - Lightweight layer offers easy application and pocket-friendly - Raised edges for added screen and camera protection - Military-Grade Protection MIL-STD 810G 516.6 - Google Pixel 2 XL Case Compatible with Google Pixel 2 XL (2017) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07475TXJQ | | Additional Features | Lightweight | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Brand | Spigen | | Built-In Media | Case | | Color | Black | | Compatible Cellular Phone Models | Google Pixel 2 XL | | Compatible Devices | 2017, Google Pixel 2 XL | | Compatible Phone Models | Google Pixel 2 XL (2017), Google Pixel XL 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel Two XL, Pixel XL 2 | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 5,025 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Polycarbonate | | Finish | Matte | | Form Factor | Basic Case | | Global Trade Identification Number | 08809565301674 | | Item Dimensions | 0.43 x 3.2 x 6.2 inches | | Item Type Name | Google pixel 2 xl case | | Item Weight | 31.8 Grams | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 0.43 x 3.2 x 6.2 inches | | Manufacturer | Spigen | | Material | Polycarbonate | | Mfr Part Number | 8809565301674 | | Model Name | Google pixel 2 xl case | | Model Number | F17CS22279 | | Pattern | Solid | | Screen Size | 6 Inches | | Style Name | Statement | | Subject Character | Batman | | Theme | No Theme | | Warranty Description | No guarantee | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Spigen - **Color:** Black - **Compatible Devices:** 2017, Google Pixel 2 XL - **Compatible Phone Models:** Google Pixel 2 XL (2017), Google Pixel XL 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel Two XL, Pixel XL 2 - **Material:** Polycarbonate ## Images ![Spigen Rugged Armor Designed for Google Pixel 2 XL Case (2017) - Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61BggbJuhBL.jpg) ![Spigen Rugged Armor Designed for Google Pixel 2 XL Case (2017) - Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/5163dDdfvwL.jpg) ![Spigen Rugged Armor Designed for Google Pixel 2 XL Case (2017) - Black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/612F11EXQqL.jpg) ![Spigen Rugged Armor Designed for Google Pixel 2 XL Case (2017) - Black - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61XVQ0tME2L.jpg) ![Spigen Rugged Armor Designed for Google Pixel 2 XL Case (2017) - Black - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/615SO2lG2TL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this a hard or soft case?** A: Flexible rubber but once installed it is quite firm.

I have bought cases from Spigen in the past for various phones and they seem to never disappoint. The phone case I just bought for my pixel 2 XL is great. Very nice texture and also the matte like material prevents fingerprints. The overall look is sleek and I believe the case helps hold the phones aesthetics in place. I just got this phone and used it for a couple of hours right now. I love the indent the case leaves in the front so when you lay it down on the ground glass down that the front of the phone isn't really touching the surface. There is also that indent where the camera is. Finger print reader is still easily accessible without looking and isn't a problem at all with the case. The buttons responds well and does not need to be pressed hard. Value wise --- this case is worth the price. I believe that you get what you pay for and if you want a good protection for your phone you should be willing to be a little more for a better product. I used to switch phones all the time but I am planning on my keeping my pixel 2 for a long time because it's such a great phone so I am willing to pay a little more to keep phone in great shape even after couple years of using it.
