Published on11 minutes ago
The Google Pixel 9 Pro XL is a new entry in the Pixel lineup, with a larger screen to compete directly with the likes of the iPhone 16 Pro Max. That said, considering the size and price, you’ll definitely want to protect it with a case.
I’ve tested out a ton of the most popular Pixel 9 Pro XL cases on the market and picked out a few that a worthy of Google’s most premium (non-foldable) smartphone. Check out our list for the best Pixel 9/9 Pro cases if you’ve got a smaller model.My favorite Google Pixel 9 Pro XL case is the Mous Limitess
A phone as large and expensive as the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL needs solid protection, and the Mous Limitless case hits the sweet spot for me. It offers solid protection without too much bulk and a ton of extras.
More important than the bulk, it also just feels nice to hold. There are a few different backing materials to choose from, and they all felt great. I prefer the soft, matte finish of the carbon fiber backing over the smoother finish on the wooden options, but they’re all very, very nice.
The sides of the case are smooth, with ridges where your hand rests. The lack of texture means there isn’t too much grip, but honestly it didn’t bother me at all. I never felt like the phone was going to slip from my hands, which I can’t say about the aluminum rails on the Pixel 9 series as a whole.
There are plenty of other little details, like lanyard holes on both sides. The middle section of the screen lip is also flattened to make swipe gestures easier, although not as much as I would have liked.
But what sets it over the edge is the magnet array in the back. If you haven’t already invested in magnetic accessories, this case allows you to use a variety of wallets, mounts, wireless chargers, and more. This can add both functionality and convenience, which is more than you can ask for from a phone case.
It’s not cheap, but if you’ve already spent the money on a Google Pixel 9 Pro XL, it’s more than worth it.Other Pixel 9 Pro XL cases I would spend money on
If the Mous Limitless isn’t for you, the good news is that you’re still spoiled for choice. Another case I really liked was the dbrand Grip ($59.9 at dbrand).
