[Google Pixel Accessories] fitchpuckman:
I've been using the RhinoShield Crashguard for about a week now, and wanted to post a review of my experiences so far. FULL DISCLOSURE: I received my crashguards for free from the manufacturer for evaluation purposes. That said, this review is 100% my opinion and is no way influenced by anyone or anything other than my own personal experiences.

Phone: Google Pixel

Items: Red and Black RhinoShield CrashGuard (CG from here on out, since I'm already sick of typing the full name...) and Screen Protector

Size: Overall, the case adds quite a bit of width to an otherwise moderately sized phone (at least in today's phablet-laden market). From my rough measurements, the case is about 3-1/8" wide. This makes the phone feel much larger than it is. The CG is very sturdy, though, and there's no slipping of the phone in the case. It's a thick bumper, as you would expect for what it's designed to do. It does have a sizable ridge on the back side, which took a little getting used to. I must say, I haven't had a strict bumper case ever on any phone, so it felt a bit unnatural for me to widen the phone so much without any corresponding thickness added. The CG made the phone take up much more room in my pocket than I expected, and made one-handed use a bit awkward. It just didn’t feel right to have such an effectively-wide but relatively thin device.

Protection: Undoubtedly, this case adds great protection. I haven't put it through the gamut of tests, but did once drop the phone onto a hardwood floor from 36"-48" without any issue. I thought (feared) for sure the glass would have been cracked, but it was totally fine. There's more than plenty of front and back lip/raise to leave me feeling very comfortable to toss the phone on my desk or end table face-up or face-down without any concern. I felt like the phone was well protected given the design. Keep in mind, this is not at all an Otterbox, but outside of dropping on jagged rocks of the corner of something blunt, I feel very confident the CG will keep the phone safe on normal falls.

Look/Feel: I tried out both the red and the black CGs, and the black is my preference. The red was a bit more "neon" than I expected, a sort of salmon-y/orange-ish red. At first I was little surprised, but I suppose this makes total sense since the CG is a matte plastic. You can see more in the expanded imgur album at the link below. It added a little grip, but not much. I had saw someone suggest the case's grip made it hard to get the phone out of their pocket, that was not my experience at all. This case weighs basically nothing, so it was really awesome that you get some protection with essentially zero added weight. Overall, really like that you still see the phone's construction with just a bumper, but I’m still split on whether or not the odd aesthetic is worth it here.

Other General:

The case seemed to heavily dampen the phone's already average vibrate. I frequently did not recognize notification vibrations with the phone on my desk while in the CG. Phone calls were clearly noticeable, though.

Another item is that the charge port is not large enough for my i-Orange and Cable Matters aftermarket cables. On the black one, I could shove them in and eventually get a charge, but no luck with the red. The stock Google charge cable fit perfectly fine, as did the stock cable from my 5X.

I had no issues with the headphone jack opening, but given that the case is quite thick around the edge, I could see some headphones with a thicker plastic casing, or potentially with an angled plug, not fitting perfectly. YMMV, and again, my Amazon Premium/Fire headphones fit perfectly well.

ScreenGuard: As noted in detail in my imgur link, the screenguard seems to be about 1-1.5mm too narrow for the phone. Interestingly, this was the exact same problem my brother noticed with his Zagg screen protector on his Pixel Xl, so I'm not at all convinced yet this is RhinoShield's fault. Nonetheless, it's worth noting. It has no real functional impact on the device, and the front camera, sensor, and earphone holes align perfectly. I do with the screenguard was a bit wider, though. Not necessarily due to the small gap, but more due to the thickness of the protector causing quite a sharp ridge along the edge of the screen, which you'll constantly scrape across when swiping from left to right for menus and google now. If the protector was wider, this would be somewhat minimized. The surface is slick, too, which is nice...I didn’t feel any added physical resistance when swiping around, and there was no added delay to screen responsiveness. I never use screen protectors since i personally find them useless given how well gorilla glass has evolved, but am overall fairly happy with this one. I'll likely be keeping it on which, for me, says a lot...before I put it on I thought for sure I'd be getting rid of this in a day or two.

Overall, I'm up in the air on if I'll continue to use the CG bumper. I'm not sure if I value the awesome fall protection over some of the functional aspects that it alters (ergonomics, feel, vibration dampening, overall size, etc), but it no doubt will keep the phone quite safe on a daily basis. I'm going to keep cycling between the CG and my Maxboost slim case to see which direction I want to go. It's definitely a nice bumper, and seems quite durable, but I still haven't decided if it's right for me. Here's a link to a bunch of pictures of the red and black cases, as well as my slim case for comparison.
