This is very CLEAR, stain resistant! Even if you spell some coffee on the clear cover, it comes right off without leaving a spot or stain! Very sturdy and an awesome quality of the plastic manufactured for this pixel phone protector! Excellent value. I would recommend this for anyone.

Always pick up a speck presidio for all my Pixel devices (and every other device I have owned) It gives great drop protection without sacrificing the look of the phone. So, if you like the design of your device and want to keep it looking new this is the way to go!

After having ordered a different case for my Pixel 4 XL on Amazon and receiving the wrong case, I needed something quick to protect my new phone. I found this case on Best Buy, liked the look and good reviews it has received.
The cutouts for the camera & headphone jack & speakers are precise. The covers over the volume rocker and power button are precise as well, but do offer quite a bit of resistance when either is needed. Truthfully, my preference would be to have cutouts over both, but they're low profile so covering them likely adds sturdiness to the case.
I dropped my phone from a short distance to a soft tile floor, and the sound it made tells me this case will do a good job protecting my phone. I really like the clear case to show the colors of my phone, just seems more stylish to me.
The case also offers a measure of protection for the camera and sides as well as the display with an unobtrusive lip. The corners of the case have added protection to do a complete job of protecting the phone no matter how it lands if dropped. Highly recommended!

I bought this case because I needed a clear case so I can actually see the color on my device. It does the job as protection but if hate fingerprints and oily smears this is not for you. The case would definitely benefit from an oiliophobic coating to decrease the amount of finger prints.

Hey there, we’re sorry to hear about your experience. We designed our cases to resist daily wear and tear, but unfortunately we are unable to protect against individual skin pH, skin oils, and certain chemicals (such as lotions, cosmetics, and dyes) that can make the case look dirty. Still, we don't want you to be sporting a dirty case, so please reach out to [email protected] and we'll be happy to help you as best we can.

Unfortunately-Timed Purchase, But A Winner

Speck have always been my default go-to for phone cases as they typically offer some form and function and this case nails both out of the park. Sturdy, rigid, and transparent, the Speck Presidio STAY CLEAR hard shell case hits all the essentials and performs admirably. Not much to elaborate on as this is about as simple as it comes.
Positives:
The slightly rubbery feel of the plastic hard shell case has good grip and is thick enough to negate any sort of anxiety of knowing your phone is intact if dropped. While I wouldn't toss your phone up in the air as proof of concept, I'm confident this would protect your phone from drops of normal heights. The outer lips of the case on the screen side stick out enough from the front that if the phone landed screen-first (pending anything on the ground directly center of the screen), you could rest easy knowing your phone would escape undamaged.
The side buttons are rigid with minimal flex to negate any accidental button presses and the usual suspect of weak structural integrity in between the charging port and screen is solid with no foreseeable wear and tear that could come from daily use.
This is also a very clear and transparent case with an inherent sheen that complimented my Pixel 4 XL's shiny "Clearly White" color scheme so it's a great case if you want to show off or admire your phone's natural aesthetics.
Negatives:
Literally none
Conclusion:
Fantastic case and highly-recommended. It was an unfortunately-timed purchase for me as I upgraded phones shortly after purchase to a Samsung S21 Ultra, but if you're looking for a transparent case that will protect your phone, look no further.

Fit is slightly off. Expensive

The feel of the case is nice. It isn't slippery and it won't catch your pocket if you are pulling it out of your pocket. I always find that annoying with some cases.
The downside is the fit isn't perfect. If you press on the phone when it is in the case, you can feel that there is some kind of gap between the phone and case. It isn't a perfectly snug case. It doesn't feel like it will fall out, but if you are fidgeting with your phone, you will notice it.
It is also expensive, to me. $40 for a case is a lot of money to me. It would be nice if it was in the $20 - $25 range.

A great case for the Pixel 4 XL. It's sturdy, clear, and seems to protect my phone well enough to not worry about drops at all. There is just enough lip on the front so that the phone is never resting on its glass as well.

False advertising-- turns YELLOW after 1 month of

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Total garbage. The level of protection is great but the clear case concept is a huge #fail. My case managed to yellow w/o any external cause. The edges, especially around the camera, vol buttons have a gross yellow tinge.
And thank goodness for the 10ft drop protection because the case itself is incredibly slippery without any amount of grip. If you don't have a popit or similar accessory added to the back of this case, you better hope you have an iron grip otherwise your $1200 phone will end up flying right out of your hand if you aren't careful.

This is a nice clear case for the Pixel 4. I bought it because I have the orange phone and wanted to show it off.
I can be a little slippery compared to an Otter box.

I purchased this case for my new Pixel 4XL, because of its design to protect the phone incase of a hard fall. The case provides good protection around the edge of the glass/screen and around the corners of the phone.
