[Google Pixel 8] Ćwirek:
Edit: pictures added under each text describing a specific case.

If you are looking for something like a review of the official Google cases, Spigen Tough Armor and transparent Ultra Hybrid, Poetic Revolution and some cheap cases you might find this post usefull.

First up is Spigen Tough Armor. I won't hide the fact that I used this case on several of my phones in the past and it worked great on each phone - it didn't look so raw, but it was also elegant, but it improved the grip. It is worth mentioning that the screen protection is not as high as it could be, the case could be more profiled in this respect. Camera protection is ok.

This is a case worth considering if you want your phone to be protected and not look like a brick, but you have to remember that "it could always be better". It's possible that I'm writing this from the perspective of my attachment to the Spigen brand, but I wanted to be as honest as possible.

Spigen Ultra Hybrid looks and feels great but there is a small problem if you have back panel protection applied (like protective film or something) - this case will stick to the protection and even may tear it off when you take the case off. Happenen to me several times and this sight hurts my esthete heart who can take care of the appearance of the phone so that the phone looks like new and yes I know how it sounds:ROFLMAO:.

My previous phone was OnePlus 11 and when I had this phone I found out about the Poetic Revolution case. Most of the text below is copied from my post about cases for OnePlus 11 but my opinion didn't change, I only edited the details to adapt the text to Pixel 8 version of the case.

The case is raw, it definitely doesn't look as good as Spigen Tough Armor, but again - it's supposed to protect, not look, and boy oh boy it protects good!

The grip is much better thanks to the way the case is profiled on the back, it is blocky, which improves the grip. Screen protection is definitely better compared to Spigen Tough Armor because the lip is simply larger, camera is embedded deeper in the case but whole module is opened compared to Tough Armor.

To sum up - it is worth it, very much so, but it is worth noting that the case consists of two elements visible in the photo and consists of a rubber-plastic body and a flexible plastic frame which, when inserted into the body, stiffens whole case. But... The plastic frame is so flexible and so flimsy that it may simply broke when you might take the phone out of the case one day. The very good news is that the case comes with an additional frame, but the frame is equipped with screen protection. The problem is that this protection sticks tightly to the screen and curls up the screen protection that you applied yourself, if you did, of course. There is nothing stopping you from removing the protection, to clean the frame from any glue that left and using it without it just like I did. Another thing - case is equipped with kickstand and it is a very convenient solution because you can place phone both vertically and horizontally BUT the mechanism that slides the kickstand in and out of the case may leave dust trail on the back or maybe even scratch the back panel as I showed in the photo, fortunately in this photo it is not the phone that is scratched but the visible traces are on the back protection that I applied.

Next are official Google cases for Pixel 8, mint and coral.

It is worth noting that none of the official photos reflect the colors of the cases, I have the impression that in the official photos the colors are more vivid and coral one looks pink, but in reality it is something between red and orange.

Anyway - official cases are great, but in my opinion to expensive, but cases are stiff probably covered with something like rubber that is very pleasant to the touch. The only element that is not stiffened is the rubber above the charging port and inside of the case is lined with some kind of material to prevent the phone from being scratched. I changed case with another one after a week of using and I have the impression that it is impossible to get them dirty but I don't work physically on construction site or in dirty places, I'm a salesman at a second hand phone shop in Poland and after a week of using Google cases they look like new, which can't be said about...

...about kw-commerce cases. kw-commerce cases are relatively cheap and I think they will work best when you need something right now but you also want to buy something better later and at the same time you want your phone to be colorful by then.

Cases are made of cheap-smelling rubber which, in the case of the orange version got so dirty within a week of use that it couldn't be cleaned with anything and the blue version has worn out in several places, and in addition all the crap from the pockets sticks to the blue version. The interesting thing is that the orange version has no abrasions or anything sticks to it from the pocket, and both cases were used in the same conditions, in the same places, I even wore the same jeans.
