For people whose phones are perpetually in their hands, this Dbrand Grip case ensures that the phone stays there. According to Dbrand, this case is the grippiest you'll get. One Dbrand customer on Reddit said their case lasted two and a half years without any peeling of the grip material.

Thousands of textured dots line the perimeter of the Dbrand Grip case to give you an unshakeable grip on your new phone. The case comes in a signature black lining, but you can customize it with over 40 options from Dbrand. Depending on customization, the Grip case is priced between$45 and$55.

A protective case is great, but often, it feels like you're trading off style for security. Casetify's Google Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro. One Casetify customer noted that the case was attractive, durable, and grippy without slipping out of their hands. 

You can customize your case with Casetify's designs and your name or monogram. The case comprises 65% recycled plastic, making it a relatively eco-conscious choice. Raised bezels and Casetify's EcoShock cushioning and dissipation technology keep your phone's screen and camera safe for up to 8 feet of drop protection.

It can be tough to find a good-quality phone case under$50, but this one from Spigen provides military-grade protection through its Air Cushion technology. It also features a sleek design with raised bezels for screen and camera protection. One Amazon customer said the case was sleek and comfortable but still durable in your hands.

Most importantly, it's only$30. This case is for the purists out there -- it doesn't come with any special features (and it only comes in matte black). But it protects your phone without any of the bells and whistles for a comparably inexpensive price.

Clear cases might seem boring, but when they offer 12 feet of drop protection and are made with 50% TPU, they're worth your attention. A clear case can let you show off your mint or rose-colored Pixel phone. One Case-Mate reviewer said, "I have definitely dropped my phone numerous times now with this case on it. It has withheld all the drops with no damage to my phone (which is totally multiple times a day). I totally recommend this case!"

This Case-Mate Signature Clear Case is only$45 and offers the highest drop protection on this list. If anything happens to this case and it doesn't live up to its promises, Case-Mate's lifetime warranty can help make amends.

I'll admit, sometimes I prize beauty over functionality. This is a phone you're going to be taking mirror selfies with. Why have an ugly, bland case in all those photos of yours? These Burga Tough cases are by far the cutest in this lineup. One customer said they loved the design, the case feels excellent quality, and it seems to protect their phone well so far. 

Whether you want your Google Pixel decked out in checkers, zebra print, snakeskin, flowers, or doodled hearts, Burga's got you.
