The next generation of Google Pixel is here with the Google Pixel 9. Not only did Google give us a fantastic Barbie pink color for the Pixel 9 (along with green, black, and white) but it also gave us more power with the Tensor G4, 12GB RAM, and a dual camera system with a 50-megapixel main lens and a 48MP ultrawide camera. It even has a new design with flat edges and a revamped camera bar that looks much more modern.
But as with any new electronic device, you’re going to want to make sure to keep it protected from everyday wear and tear. Here are some of the best cases for your Google Pixel 9 right now.
JETech Clear Case
Best clear case for Google Pixel 9
Pros
- Simple, sleek design
- Shows off phone color
- Easy installation
- Very affordable
If you got the brand new pink or green Google Pixel 9, you might want to show off that gorgeous color. This clear case from JETech will do exactly that.
JETech’s clear case has a simple and sleek design that won’t add any bulk to your device. It’s made with a flexible TPU material that is easy to get on and take off when needed. JETech also claims that the material is anti-scratch and won’t yellow, so it should remain crystal clear as you use it. Despite the slim profile, it has great drop protection, and the raised bezels arond the display and camera will give you more peace of mind.
Though we are showing off the clear version, JETech also has a simple black version if that’s what you prefer. The case is also very affordable.

FNTCASE Heavy Duty Textured Case
Best grippy case for Google Pixel 9
Pros
- Textured design adds grip
- Military-grade protection
- Overall slim profile
- Good color choices
Cons
- Could have had more colors
Those who are prone to dropping their phone may want to look into a textured case, such as this one from FNTCASE. It has a nonslip textured back that will add a ton of grip, keeping your phone in your hand and not on the floor. It is a two-piece case with a soft TPU inner part that will absorb shock and a hard PC outer shell that absorbs impact. The corners are also reinforced, and the bezels are raised to give you the best possible protection.
The best part is that even though the case is heavy-duty, it is slim and sleek. It also comes in some fun and bold colors, though it’s a bit surprising that there is no pink option. And it’s very reasonably priced too.

Caseology Nano Pop
Best colorful case for Google Pixel 9
Pros
- Two-tone colors
- Four-foot drop protection
- Lifted edge protects camera and screen from scratches
- Textured sides provide excellent grip
Cons
- Extremely limited color choices
Caseology is known for making cases that add a pop of color to your phone, and its Nano Pop case is no exception. Available in Burgundy Bean, Black Sesame, Blueberry Navy, and Papaya Gray, this case has a darker color for the base and a lighter color for the camera ring and interior back padding — giving you two colors for the price of one.
The edge of the Nano Pop case is lifted on the camera and screen sides to further protect both features from scratches whether you’re sliding your Google Pixel 9 in your pocket, your packed purse, or sliding it across the table to it pass along to someone so they can see your vacation photos. The lifted edge also gives your phone extra protection from drops of up to four feet high.

TAURI for Google Pixel 9 Case
Best MagSafe case for Google Pixel 9
Pros
- Stronger magnetism
- Has anti-yellowing coating
- Military grade 10-foot drop protection
The Google Pixel 9 has joined the clear MagSafe case party along the iPhone with TAURI. The built-in N52 Halbach magnets make the magnetic portion of the case so strong your phone won’t fall off when you’re dangling it from the MagSafe wireless charger. Even if does fall off, it’s protected from drops of up to 10 feet and has four corner airbags to absorb impact.
The case is crystal clear thanks to the anti-yellowing coating from Germany Bayer’s ultra-clear TPU material, which also protects it from sweat and stains, making it last a very long time. The green case goes especially well with the pink Google Pixel 9, so it can look like Mitsuri Kanroji’s hair in Demon Slayer.

CYRILL UltraSheer
Best soft case for Google Pixel 9
Pros
- Ultra Bubble corners absorb shock from falls
- Phone strap holes allow customization with wrist straps and charms
- Soft frosted back and textured grip
- Compatible with wireless charging
Depending on the color of your Google Pixel 9, CYRILL’s UltraSheer phone case pairs nicely with it, especially the pink one. This case is as functional as it is fashionable, as it comes equipped with reinforced UltraBubble corners to absorb the shock of your phone’s fall if you drop it. It’ll feel like your phone is landing on a fluffy pillow.
For extra fluff, the case has a soft frosted back for both your sensory pleasure and ease of wireless charging, leaving the rough texture on the sides for easier grip. There’s even two holes on the bottom for you to hook a wrist strap, lanyard, or a phone charm if you’re feeling extra creative.

Spigen Liquid Air
Best slim case for Google Pixel 9
Pros
- Cushions falls via Air Cushion Technology
- Highly flexible for easy application
- Slim fit
- Matte textured design for non-slip grip
Cons
- Only dull colors available
If you want your case to be rough around the edges in both style and protection, then Spigen Liquid Air is the case for you. On the outside, it has a tough exterior with a polygonal matte-textured design on the back with lines on the sides to ensure you get a good grip on your phone. The inside of the case has Air Cushion Technology on every corner that protects your phone not only from drops but also other bumps and scuffs from moving around in your pocket or bag.
The case is only available in Matte Black, Marble Gray, and Abyss Green, which is very limiting depending on your aesthetic. But nonetheless, ensuring your Google Pixel 9 is protected is more important than its appearance.

JAME Pixel 9 Case
Best ring holder case for Google Pixel 9
Pros
- The pop-out ring is easy to hold on to
- Anti-scratch and anti-fingerprint coating
- Two layers of protection dissipate impact from drops
Cons
- Multiple users report issues with wireless charging
If you struggle to keep a firm grip on your case, the ring case from JAME can help. It has a pop-out ring on the back that not only serves as a kickstand but also makes it easy to keep your phone in your hand without dropping it. The ring can be rotated 360 degrees and folded up to 100 degrees.
Sadly, this case does not support wireless charging. The ring gets in the way and prevents the case from making a good connection with the charger. You might be stuck charging the old-fashioned way, but at least you’ll know your phone is protected against most damage. It does help that this case is available in 10 different colors, including a particularly bold red.

Ringke Onyx Case
Best nonslip case for Google Pixel 9
Pros
- Raised cutouts protect the camera lenses
- Anti-fingerprint material
- Has built-in lanyard holes
Cons
- Buttons provide little tactile feedback
The Ringke Onyx is one of the most understated cases for the Pixel 9. Not only does it resist fingerprints and smudges but it’s made of a porous material that makes it easier to maintain your grip on the case. Because of the raised cutout area around the camera lens, this case offers incredible protection against drops and scrapes.
It’s available in a variety of colors, too. If you need a case that looks professional but isn’t boring, the Ringke is a solid choice.

Mous Pixel 9 Case
Best clear case for Pixel 9
Pros
- Scratch-resistant glass
- Works with MagSafe
- Anti-yellowing
Mous is one of the gold standards for phone cases. It protects against drops with scratch-resistant glass that shows off the build of your phone without sacrificing functionality. Built-in magnets on the back make it easy to use wireless charging setups, and you never have to worry about the case yellowing.
The downside, of course, is the price. At $75, it’s a pretty penny for this case — but it also comes with a lifetime warranty.

Bastmei Pixel 9 Case
Best ultralight case for Google Pixel 9
Pros
- Easily fits in your pocket without adding bulk
- Raised cutout for the camera
- Comfortable to hold for long periods
Cons
- Case doesn’t fully cover the sides
When engineers put so much time into developing a thin phone, the last thing you want to do is offset that progress with a bulky case. The Bastmei Pixel 9 case is slender and well-designed to protect your phone without making it uncomfortable to carry with you. It’s also incredibly budget-friendly.
The primary downside is that parts of the sides and bottom of the phone is exposed, and the camera doesn’t have a cover over it — just a raised lip. It opens the phone up to damage if it lands on any of those spots.
