The Google Pixel 4a was one of the most compelling phones of 2020, offering excellent performance and cameras for less than half the price of its flagship. While it might not cost thousands of dollars, that doesn’t mean it’s any less worthy of protection. Whether you need to spice up the Just Black of the Pixel 4a or need to keep it safe from the chaos outside your door, these are the best Pixel 4a cases you can buy right now.

The best Pixel 4a cases
Caseology Parallax
Pretty protection
This hybrid case comes in four dazzling color combinations — matte black, classic blue, purple, and a darling coral pink — and offers drop protection and grip in a compact profile.
Poetic Revolution
Guard the front and back
This heavy-duty case comes with a screen protector built into the front frame, offering 360 degrees of protection for your Pixel 4a. I also like the robust kickstand on the back that can be used in portrait or landscape.
Google Pixel 4a Fabric Case
Sustainable and stylish
Google’s fabric cases have long been a fan-favorite, but they get even more durable this year because the fabric is woven out of recycled plastic bottles. And when the case gets dirty, it’s also machine washable!
OtterBox Commuter Series
Rugged, but cute
This hybrid case may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but that’s alright. If you’re not secure enough to rock a ruggedly handsome case that’s pink and magenta, it’s more heavy-duty goodness for me.
Anccer Colorful Series
Add some pizzazz
With the Pixel 4a only launching in black at first, I understand wanting to add some color without adding bulk. The bold blue and emerald green are lovely, but there’s always Rose Gold if you like a softer shade.
Spigen Liquid Crystal
Clean and clear
A slim profile and excellent grip have helped make the Spigen Liquid Crystal one of the most popular cases on the market for the last several years. The corner air cushions here don’t stick out, giving a more refined look.
Feitenn Folio Wallet
Functional and fashionable
This synthetic leather case can hold three cards plus cash while keeping your Pixel 4a safe from the big bad world outside. A magnetic clasp keeps things tidy when closed, and when open, the folio doubles as a kickstand.
Caseology Vault
Get a grip
There are millions of flexible TPU cases out there, but I like the Caseology Vault because the back panel has a subtle texturing that provides an excellent grip and a nice feel similar to leather.
ESR Crystal Clear
Clear and compact
If you prefer a clear case that will show off the minimalist styling of the Pixel 4a, this slim case will add grip without obscuring that all-important G on the back of the phone.
Teelevo Card Slot Cover
Carry it all
Despite how compact the Pixel 4a is, there’s still just enough room between the fingerprint sensor and the bottom of the phone to hide a couple of credit cards. The slot cover also doubles as a kickstand.
Spigen Rugged Armor
Classic style
This is one of Spigen’s oldest case lines, and it’s still the one that thousands swear by. The texturing on the sides adds some nice grip, and I’m excited to see a differentiation in texture between the top and bottom accents.
Pordsioc Leather Wallet Case
Double wallet
This wallet case has slots inside for cards and cash, but there’s also a slip-out card slot on the front of the folio where you can hide two additional cards. There’s also a hole for a lanyard, but you’ll have to buy one separately.
Ghostek Covert
Clear corner cushions
Ghostek’s clear case isn’t a dainty flower by any means, and the gel cushions can better help your Pixel 4a survive the oh-so-dreaded corner drops without cracking the screen. Three colors are available, including a cute pink.
Kwmobile Fabric Case
Fabulous feel for less
If Google’s fabric cases don’t have enough fun colors for the back fabric, Kwmobile offers a fabric case in seven colors, including this “coral” that’s more of deep burgundy. The buttons are uncovered for easier access.
BENTOBEN Glow in The Dark Case
Glow in the dark
Give your Pixel 4a a real glamorous glow-up with this glow-in-the-dark case. It’s a snug fit so your Pixel will look real slick in it.
What are the best Pixel 4a cases?
There’s a lot to love about the Pixel 4a, and you can pick up a case to add some pizzazz to it, whether you want to go with Just Black or something brighter and bolder. The classic blue navy of the Caseology Parallax is alluring but still somewhat understated, for example. But if you want to go big and bold, there’s also the coral pink or purple-ish — the darling color from the previous generation Pixel 3a.
