just got this wireless stand that i plan on using at work

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079C1QLCR/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Currently using Pitaka MagCase from 2 XL and it charges wireless with no issues depsite the built-in magnet in the case. Shows on screen as "charging rapidly" as well. Doesnt work as well if you put the phone in landscape mode though. It shows charging initially but then will stop. I hardly put phone in landscape at work anyways.

Just tested 2 XL Fabric case with metal plate in between, and of course it wont charge wirelessly. I guess you have to play around with the plate placement. I'll stick with using the pitaka case for now even if the cutout doesnt fit perfectly. hopefully pitaka will change its mind on making a case for the 3 XL.

I can confirm the Verizon branded TGSP is bunk. I stopped in a store today and had them apply one. Does not stick to the edges and has a halo. Just a dust magnet waiting to happen. I am going to swing by a store and have them refund it. If they decide to take it off I will likely put an Intelliarmor on temporarily till a proper solution like Whitestone arrives. Pixel 2 XL all over on the screen protector front.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] anaxagorasbc:
I just received this, it's crap. Triggered the proximity sensor so the screen blacked out once i made a call. Killed the touch screen sensitivity so i was stabbing the screen with my finger.

Just got the case too. Not bad, fits good on my 3xl. Maybe a little too thin, worried not enough protection, but i like it so far
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Pure+:
I’m considering just ceramic coating the screen. I used to have a car detailing business and ceramic coatings are awesome whether it be on paint or glass. It’s extremely hard and super slick (anti-friction). However I’m not sure if it will have a similar feeling to the oleophobic coating on screen and screen protectors as well as possible touch sensitivity issues. I’m tempted to try it and if I have issue make a warranty claim [emoji23]. But if it works then I could rock the phone without a screen protector without fear of scratching
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] wponder:
LOL. I have a 2 XL that got jacked up from a Pie update. It will only charge using my Mackbook adapter. I got an RMA for it today. I am sending in the RMA for a trade-in on the 3 XL I got. I should do that to the broken 2 XL before sending it back..

I bought this Spigen clear case

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07H5QSDW5

and this glass screen protector

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FTDL8C5

The case is OK but the combo does not work. The screen protector comes to close to the edge on the top and bottom and is pushed up by the case. Before applying the case, the protector came to close to the curve at the top to adhere.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] forwardthinking:
Is the Verizon sale over?? Seems kind of abrupt. Don't see anything, normal prices.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Pure+:
PLEASE DO!!! and letus know if it messes it up in any way. Would be a potentially great solution if it works and I'd sure be grateful to not have to be a guinea pig lol
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] DJ-phYre:
My Ozrly screen protector seems to be sticking good, no edge lifting. However, I've got a terribly large rainbow effect.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] mikepopo99:
Worst Screen Protector

I just return that same screen. It only catches on the edges middle is floating and you have to press very hard for your touch screen to respond..
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] HiM@L:
oh damn. thanks for the heads-up.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Mdizzle1:
I've ordered two cases from MNML as I like the super thin cases.

Currently down to $15 from $25. Free world wide shipping for me in the UK. Fill your basket and put in an email address etc and then just leave it. About 45mins later they emailed me to.complete my order with a 15% off code.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] NICEGYPT:
I got the same protector :) My phone is going to be here today!, usually the rainbow effect comes when the phone is exposed to fluorescent light for some reason... other than that I never had an issue with these type of screen protector.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Bubba:
I ordered the Otterbox case along with my XL from Go_0gle. I love the Otters and need a case with a belt clip. I tried a screen protector I ordered from an online store and it seemed a pretty good and clear fit until I put it in the case. If anyone find a good solution using an Ottter case please let me know. For now my screen will go nude.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] bobby janow:
Ordered the Pixel 3 one. Thanks for the code. Came to $7+ free shipping.

Spoke with bodyguardz and apparently they designed it to not fully cover the display. Seems like a poor decision to me. Time to find a new brand to go with
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Xzirus:
I ordered from Intelliarmor as well as have loved their product on my 6P. Do we know if their tgsp will fare any better than the ones people have been having trouble with?

Just wondering if you have heard anything.

Thanks
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] wponder:
I ordered some HD's hoping they are even 1/2 better till I can get a whitestone. I cannot find anyone that has a picture of one applied though.

I dropped by another Verizon store today and they tried again. Nope, still raised on the edges. This time worse than the last time. They said they would refund it.

Here is a nice thin fit case I ordered https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HVQDS4P/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It has the feel of last years Spigen (kind of soft), I have the Spigen thin fit being delivered tomorrow but have heard the texture is not a good feeling.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] gettinwicked:
I got the Spigen thin fit. I actually prefer the new texture to the plain rubber feel of the 2 xl one. It's also thinner and makes it feel a lot less like there's a case on the phone. One trade-off though is it covers just slightly less of the screen. However, I highly doubt a screen first fall with this OR the pixel 2 xl one would save it. Anyway, I like it. I'm going to order the rugged armor one too for times when I'm out all day, or just need the extra protection.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] DarkPhoenix:
So I had to cancel my order for the screen protectors because they weren't going to ship until November 4th. I ended up getting a Zagg glass screen protector from the Verizon store for about $45. I've not been a fan of the Zagg screen protectors in the past but I figured I would give them another shot. It is a full adhesive screen protector. There isn't any rainbow effect or dot matrix. My only complaint is that the lady in the store put it on just a little crooked and it bothers me lol. The pics I'm attaching are of the screen protector and my Ringke Fusion X case.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] wponder:
The right side looks like it has a raised edge ( Not stuck down ) is that the case or just the picture?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] DarkPhoenix:
Looking at the phone yes it does. Possibly because she free handed the installation and didn't use the guide they include with the packaging. It is installed off center to the right a little.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Pure+:
Can you take one with the screen on so when can see the coverage?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] DarkPhoenix:
Here you go, in my opinion it covers the screen pretty good. Obviously mine is off center to the right so the bottom left corner is slightly uncovered.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Pure+:
Well it’s about 1000x better than bodyguardz lmao. I may have to bite the bullet and get one
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] southernstyle:
I bought the puregear tempered glass from a non corporate Verizon and it looks and fits exactly like this. It was $60, but comes with an alignment tray and if your screen breaks, they give you $100 towards the repair. Just FYI for those looking at options.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] sn0warmy:
$60 for a screen protector?!?!? :eek:
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Bubba:
On the plus side if you break your screen you make a $40 profit.?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] resonantentropy:
Do you have any lift away from around the edge of the screen? I bought the Zagg protector (directly from them) and there was about 1-2mm around the entire edge that didn't touch the screen, so it was incredibly annoying. I didn't leave it on very long.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] DarkPhoenix:
There's a small amount of lift on the right side of the screen but I think it's because it was put on a little off center to the right.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] bp328i:
I just received my Spigen Thin Fit and the new feel is not as bad as the review I read. The review said it felt like straight hard plastic, which after just receiving it is an overstatement , in my opinion, it's okay feeling, just different from the last few years.

To me it does feel a little slipperier than the non textured one from last year (but this is my first day with it so that might change a little over the upcoming days). The one I linked is a little thinner than the Spigen but I'm going to rock the Spigen as it has the built in spot for the metal plate for my car mount. If I'm not going to be in my car for any extended period of time (up coming cruises) I'll more than likely switch to the one I linked.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Bogega:
Can you post some pictures of the case please?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] bp328i:
Sure, the one on the left is the one I linked on the prior page and the right is the Spigen Thin Fit.

Wish Spigen would make a white version. Already the best looking thin fit I think they've made, just needs a few more color options

Did u get the defender one? Ive been thinking about getting it?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Pure+:
The ESR tempered glass case is pretty nice. I have it for both my p3xl and iPhone XS. Benefits of having a case but still having that glass feel

What's the esr tempered glass?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Pure+:
It's a clear case that uses a piece of tempered glass to cover the back of the phone rather than plastic
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Atticustrd:
Got a link?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Bubba:
Yes. The one in thru the Go_0gle store. I've always loved the Otterbox cases. Used them on all my phone's with the 6P being the only exception. I love the feel of them and won't carry a phone in my pocket. I like the belt clip. It actually aids in concealing my weapon so it is responsible for double duty. Otter also has always had an exceptional warranty as well.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] aknotts415:
Do u think u could post some photos of it? Im on the edge. Since its 60 lol did u get black or the blue? Thinking the blue myself.

Thanks man looks really nice! Ill probably pull the trigger. Does the rubber layer fit tight or is it loose?

Tighter than my wife's inabitions on a Saturday night prior to her Long Island Ice Tea.

Trust me. It's an Otter. You'll love it.

[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Novakingwai:
The otter cases are always tight for a few months. After about month 6 the rubber gets loose, only worsens over time. Some say you can boil the case for a couple minutes to tighten it back up. I've only gotten Otter because they are usually the only good protective stuff available at launch. Otter is a nice case, but for $50 launch price it better be perfect and it's not. Supcases are a great competitor, usually $20-$30. As soon as Supcase releases their case, I'm buying it. For now I've got a cheap $10 rugged case from amazon.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Bubba:
I've had the Otter on 3 other phones and purchased them for both of my sons phones. Never had any of them get lose as you described. I used the Supcase on my 6P. It was a nice case, but I never really loved the feel of it. After about a year the charging port cover started to not want to stay in place.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] mattt33:
I crossed the border to pick up the Pixel 3 XL I bought from the Google Play store so I could have it a couple weeks earlier rather than wait for the Canadian launch (expected USA deliver was Oct 16 vs. expected Canada delivery to home Nov 2nd to 5th).

So I ordered the Otterbox Defender along with the Intelliarmor glass screen protector. Well my defender case arrived to my home in 2 days (super surprised, but for $100 Canadian after currency conversion for the case I guess I'd expect a timely delivery) but the Intelliarmor screen protector had not come yet, and I already picked up the phone from the border.

So I called Intelliarmor and after speaking with their sales rep was informed that they would not be getting their products in/ready to ship until sometime around Oct 26-28th. Then they would be shipped out the following week. Coming all the way from California that would mean another few days for arrival in Toronto, Ontario.

I ended up cancelling the order with them and decided to go without screen protector for the first time ever (7+ phones in the past 10 years). The defender case fits really nice. Compared to my defender on the Pixel XL, it feels slimmer. Also happy that the defender no longer comes with the cheap plastic "built-in" screen protector like they used to, which I always removed in favour of a glass protector.

So now having had the phone for the past 4 days using it, I am confident in the defender for drops and going without a screen protector for the nice feel of the actual screen. No more seeing rainbow or dot matrix from glass screen protectors, and no extra tackiness in the feel of the screen. I'm honestly not worried at all about the screen. I thought I would be worried about the micro scratches on the screen but even if those do come I doubt it will bother me. It's like when you buy a new car and so worried about the first small scratch. Then a few months in you're not worried at all anymore and just go at it wiping with towels drying it after the car wash.

If there were a screen protector available in a timely fashion ready for me to use from day 1 I would have likely tried going with one but I'm not confident I'll be satisfied without, enjoying the screen as is. :good:
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] htusa:
I have an Otterbox Defender and a Ringke Fusion. The Zagg Vision screen protector works great with the Ringke. You have to finess it a bit to get it perfect. It is an exact fit to the visible screen. Maybe 1/2 mm off but it's close.

The Zagg however doesn't work with the Otterbox. It lifts the bottom edges. I tried to Dremel the bottom and help the fit. The case is a really snug fit so the screen protector will need to be fit to the Otterbox case. Widthwise is not a problem. Length needs to be cut right at the bottom speaker.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] bkrickles:
does anybody have the Bellroy leather case for their 3 xl? Not the wallet, but the thin case.

I'm considering it with my $50 credit but it actually got some pretty poor reviews on the 2 xl so I'm hesitating.

On a video it looked like the power/volume buttons were hard to press. They're exposed, but don't protrude enough to press and the side bumper is plastic. I believe the sides are leather this year though.

Any comments would be appreciated.

thanks in advance
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] sn0warmy:
I have the Spigen Rugged Armor Case and love it. Perfect amount of protection, feels great in the hand and the buttons are extremely tactile and feel just like you are hitting the actual buttons, with no case in between. The Spigen rugged Armor has actually been my go to case for my Pixel XL, Pixel 2XL, OnePlus 6 and now my Pixel 3XL I've tried many others but always find myself going back to this case.

Okay so I purchased this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07H1DKSJ3/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 as my temp screen protector

I also purchased this case : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07H5T6DQ8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Quick review on the case, it's really nice .. fits perfect and the cut out and button placements are good to touch. The back has a nice soft feel to it, not slippery but if hands are wet it could go flying in one of those clumsy moments. It does come up over the screen a bit for protection if it were to fall from a reasonable height.

The screen protector is good, installation was easy enough, it's a wet install and on the front of the case is a link to their instructional video on how to properly install it. I followed it and no bubbles or anything. Like I said this will hold me over until November when ...... drops their glass protector.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] thequadfather:
I got the black one and it is not slick at all - feels like denim.

any consensus on a cheap screen protector that won't drive me crazy until the Whitestone releases?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] sn0warmy:
When my 3XL arrived Saturday, I just ran up to a Verizon store and picked up one of their 3XL screen protectors. Install was easy and it has decent coverage. The sides don't full stick, leaving about a 1mm gap on each side where the protector isn't adhered to the screen. But I'll live with it until Whitestone releases their protector.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Roxy:
I really like Mr Shield's screen protector. :3

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FNNJ4TY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

You get 3x screen protector for $6.95 which is much better than paying $40 for 1x screen protector from google store.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] Nocturnal86:
Any Halo effect around the edges?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] RayEdmondson:
I've got the Defender case on mine and love it. Only issue I had is that the case is slightly too tight for tempered glass. It fits, but the pressure caused bubbles on my tempered glass at the bottom corners.

Edit - The Defender case does interfere with using the Pixel Stand charging your phone, despite claims that it won't. With my phone on the stand in its case, charging keeps cutting on and off. Without the phone in the case it works normally on the stand.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] aknotts415:
Hey Everyone, just thought I'd put my two cents out there since we are all searching for the perfect screen protector and cases. I ordered the Poetic Revolution in white from amazon and their Tempered glass hoping they'd work good together.

Pics- https://imgur.com/a/w9y2yw0

Okay so the case is a pretty rugged case with a nice lip around the screen. The tempered glass fits in the case well. I popped out the plastic built in screen protector on the case since I'm a tempered glass guy. The case is well made and matches my white pixel 3 xl well Very similar to the Supcase Unicorn Beetle pro's I've had and I-blason armorbox but not as bulky as those. Volume and power buttons are super clicky without much force and thats nice. The sides are a nice texture. Its pretty grippy.

The tempered glass is a edge adhesive type with the black border and it works pretty well. Good cut outs and fits the screen well. Will have to see how strong the glue is in long term use. I wish they included a bigger wet wipe, since the one included is tiny and not super damp. Other than that it works pretty well. It's dot matrix and sensitivity is pretty good. Only a tiny bit of rainbowing but some is expected with the edge adhesive type. Honestly ill take that over bubbles and this has none. Overall I'm very happy with it considering I've seen some really terrible glass protectors on here and XDA lol.
