Pixel 4a Case

Tl;dr: I think this is a great case for the money. It's well made, comfortable to hold, and comes in an assortment of good colors. I definitely recommend it. I got this a month or so ago and have enjoyed it so far. The button covers on the side are shiny silver-colored plastic and poke out a bit far from the rest of the case - some people will like this, some people won't. I like them, myself - I'm very neutral on the silver but I like the way they feel and how solidly they click. My last few pixel 4a cases have been caseology pallax, which I also liked, but there are only two fun colors. There were several good color options for this case, my favorite being "blush" (which is really more of a warm coral). The picture on Amazon and the irl case look about the same, so the color wasn't misconstrued, in that sense, but blush isn't the name for this color. I haven't had any big drops with this case but my phone has definitely fallen off the kitchen table onto the vinyl floor, off my desk onto the industrial carpet, from my pocket to the grassy ground, and the like. So far, it has clattered instead of shattered and I'm well pleased. The front has a bit of a lip to protect the screen ans the material is very comfortable. The back/sides is lightly textured and the darker smooth part is... Smooth. Nicely so. The review page prompts me to rate the "fingerprint reader" so I assume it means the cut out for the reader, which is perfectly sized. There's a bit of phone back visible around the sensor but that's how it has to be to make the hole an appropriate size to touch your finger to the sensor. I've had no issues accessing the fingerprint reader. (no issues with the reader itself, either, but that's a phone review) It has gotten a bit dirty right in the lip around the screen and back corners but whatcha gonna do 🤷🏼 In my experience, cases never stay clean and I don't really care. Maybe it'll come clean with a lysol wipe or a magic eraser - and maybe it won't. I care much more about having a fun color than not showing dirt; if I wanted it to stay clean, I'd have gotten black from the get go.

I've had this phone case a few months now and I'm really happy with it! First and foremost, I wanted a case that was going to protect my phone, and I wanted it to look cute and not like an armored tank while doing it. The color is holding perfectly (I have the purple) and it has just the right amount of grip to feel secure in my hands, even as I'm pulling it out of my pocket. Some other reviews mentioned it getting caught on pockets pulling it out but I haven't had any issues with it. I really like the side buttons that stick out. Some other reviews complained that they were silver plastic.....so what? They're very easy to find, even in the dark, and I like the "sturdiness" when you push them. I use my phone a LOT and at least at this point, there's no signs of the finish of the buttons wearing off. At 3mm, this phone also has one of the deeper bezels around the screen. I have a glass screen protector on it as well and the bezel of the case still just barely sticks up over the screen protector. I've dropped my phone several times from various heights onto our tile floors and carpet and it's been just fine.

- Purpose for the order: New phone new case for protection - Product: modern feel and look Color is a match with the picture quality feel and materials - Review of use: Snug fit to phone there was as struggle in getting the phone in the case The volume and power buttons stick out colored in chrome This give it a cheap look and the buttons are pop out a bit too much Protection - i've dropped the phone PLENTY of times and no issues with damage! - Overall: decent but i would not buy again there are other cases that give a modern look and protection with control buttons that blend in well please see my other Pixel 4a Reviews found on my profile page!

I recently purchased the new Google Pixel 4A. Due to this I was in need of a new case to protect the phone. The two parts of this case have so far done a good job of protecting the phone. The fit is good, the openings all line up for ease of use. The inner case is softer & more flexible to provide a soft cushion around the phone. The harder outer case provides a durable shell. The case is easy to use, sized to allow use of a screen protector and has a nice, snug fit on the phone. Great product at a very good price.

I ordered 3 different types and kept this one - the Crave Dual Guard case for Pixel 4a. The other two were the Spigen Rugged Armor and the Caseology Parallax. I think all of them are good cases. One reason I stuck with Crave was because of the bright saturated color I could get. I leave my phone lying around the house and I need to easily spot it. The Spigen only comes in black and the Caseology was kind of a muted purple. The other reason I like the Crave was because of the button covers. Yes they do stick out more and are shiny chrome, and I like this, particularly on Droids where they stick the power and the volume buttons on the same side. They are now so easy to identify and press. Someone was complaining that they get caught on stuff... that really never happens. I think the Crave has the thickest profile, so not as sleek as the Spigen (thinnest) or the Caseology (kind of in-between), but the Crave might be the best protected. Another reviewer said it wasn't good at distributing heat - it does have 2 layers on the back (silicone plus hard case) so it's possible, but I haven't had that problem yet. Lastly, the crave has the best back fingerprint cutout of the 3 by using a gradually slanting bevel. I've been using my Pixel 4a with the Crave case for about a month now and am pretty happy with it. Highly recommend.

I like dual layer but still slim phone cases. This Crave case (mine was for the Pixel 4a) was exactly what I wanted. It fits great, it is as slim as a dual layer case could be, and the outside is nicely textured. I have read some other reviews where they complain that the hard part of the case is too slippery even though its textured, but mine is not slippery, I'm not sure if it has been improved, but mine is not slippery. I also read where people thought the buttons are too large, but the case buttons are the same size relative to the case as the actual buttons on the phone are to the body of the actual phone, so Crave just duplicated the size of the Pixel's buttons. My one complaint is that the ridge on the front that keeps the screen from touching when it is face down is, I think, just a bit too shallow. With a tempered glass screen protector, it is really close to touching when face down. It doesnt touch, but its closer than I would like. Other than that very minor complaint, I dont see what more you could ask of a slim dual layer case for any price, much less for only $11-$12.

I usually go with a different company for my Android phone cases but this Crave case really caught my eye. I liked the color choices and open for the first green. My 4a is boring black so I wanted a unique color. I had a Pixel 3a before and the case I used on that was a great case. The only complaint I had was difficult to press volume buttons. It was hard to find the volume buttons on the case because the buttons were flush with the case. Lots of accidental power button pushing, and hard to distinguish between volume up and down. This Crave Pixel 4a case solved that issue beautifully. It offers resided chrome looking buttons for the power and volume buttons. Crave separated the buttons too. They are tactle and clicky. Very nice. The back of the case has a grippy, matte feeling. It already makes it a lot easier to hold without worrying about the phone slipping out of your hand. It has like a geometric design if you look closely. The Crave case also has a recessed hole for the fingerprint sensor that slopes down gradually, guiding your finger to the sensor. It also has a cutout for the camera, protecting it from edges and falls. The Crave case has all the necessary cutout for ports, mics, speakers, etc. It features a two piece design, with a soft black plastic frame that creates the phone and then about harder, out plastic piece, which is forest green for me, and that snaps into the back of the black case. So you get a two tone effect with black around there edges and the secondary color on the back and around the edges.

Case looks nice and fits my phone perfectly. The texture makes it easy to grip and keeps it from sliding all over the place. The buttons and fingerprint scanner work well, and it is easy to take on and off. I'm happy with the color, it's not a bright "kiddie" pink and the trim is a deep burgundy/berry. Phone feels well protected now. My husband has had this case in the forest green/teal color for nearly 2 years and his phone is like new, so I don't expect any issues to arise with this one either :)
