Protect and style up your Pixel 4a 5G with these heavy-duty phone cases

A solid Google Pixel 4a 5G case is necessary for protecting its excellent OLED panel and high-spec dual cameras. The phone itself has a relatively plain design and no color options besides black, so you have no excuse not to cover it up with a thick, protective case. That being said, while all of our heavy-duty cases will help your Pixel 4a 5G survive falls, we found many sleek and beautiful cases that will only add to your phone's charm. Here are the best Google Pixel 4a 5G cases you can trust to protect your phone — and look good doing it.

Multi-layered protection

Spigen Tough Armor Case

Staff Pick

Aside from dual TPU and polycarbonate (PC) layers, Spigen threw in a foam layer and air cushioning to blunt the most shocking corner drops. Add in a kickstand, clicky buttons, and reasonable price, and the Tough Armor model has few downsides besides a rather plain appearance.

From $15 at Amazon

Protects more than credit cards

Vena vCommute Wallet Case

Wallet cases usually prioritize a pretty design over protection, but Vena's Pixel 4a 5G case is an outstanding exception. It hides credit card slots and a metal plate for magnetic mounts along with dual layers and corner-guards, plus a large and sturdy kickstand.

Slim armor

Tudia DualShield Merge Series

Tudia adds dual TPU/PC layers and a particularly tall lip to its otherwise compact case, protecting your Pixel 4a 5G without ballooning it in size too much. We appreciate it for its ridged grip and blue, slate, and rose gold color schemes.

$12 at Amazon

Keep a tight grip

SaharaCase Military Kickstand Series

You may or may not like your Pixel 4a 5G's back, looking like an impregnable bank vault, but you can't deny the results! Thanks to its hardened TPU materials, this SaharaCase handles falls like a champ and is less likely to slip from your hand than a cheaper case.

Subtle security

SaharaCase Prestige Series

Made with the same materials, anti-slip grip, and drop-absorbant corners as the SaharaCase Military model, the Prestige case lacks its sibling's kickstand but more than wins the aesthetic battle. It protects your phone without being so dramatic about it.

$30 at Best Buy

One-piece protection

OtterBox Symmetry

OtterBox cases can get expensive but have earned their reputation as a manufacturer of sturdy, fall-resistant cases. The Pixel 4a 5G's boring design makes the clear Symmetry case an odd choice, so we recommend the "Stardust" case for a bit more pizzazz.

Diamonds are a phone's best friend

Caseology Parallax

Choose between three dual-color patterns to go with the Caseology Parralax's dual-layer protection: Burgandy & Rose Gold, Navy Blue & Gold, and Aqua Green & Teal. It's another protective case that looks great and feels comfortable to hold.

From $14 at Amazon $19 at Walmart

Screen protector included

Poetic Google Pixel 3a Rugged Clear Case

We tried to make dual-layer TPU / PC protection a standard for most of our picks, but only the Poetic Guardian case also comes with a screen protector for total protection of your phone. Or, if the screen becomes scratched or smudged, you can swap in a backup, screen-less front frame.

From $19 at Amazon From $17 at Walmart

Corner cushioning

Spigen Liquid Air Armor

If you can live without a kickstand and dual layers, this Spigen model ably protects your Pixel 4a 5G with air-cushioned corners but with a more close-packed design than the Tough Armor case. Plus, your fingers and eyes will love the patterned back.

What are the best protective Pixel 4a 5G phone cases?

We looked for specific Google Pixel 4a 5G cases with multiple protective layers to withstand higher drops, along with grippable patterns on the side or back, so you're less likely to drop it in the first place. The Spigen Tough Armor case almost goes overboard on the layers, making darn sure that if the plastic doesn't save your phone, the foam and air pockets will.

Of course, heavy-duty phone cases mean different things for different people. You may resent the lack of cases (besides the reliable and affordable Poetic Guardian) that come with screen protectors. Still, many buyers dislike them, and you can always invest in one of these excellent Pixel 4a 5G screen protectors separately.

We'll note that the Pixel 4a 5G isn't waterproof or dust-proof like the Pixel 5, so no phone case in the world will keep it safe in extreme conditions. But if you're hoping for a Pixel 4a 5G case that protects it from drops but want something a bit more stylish, you'll find plenty of options above. The Vena vCommute Wallet case is both stylish and practical and tops our list of the best wallet cases for the Pixel 4a 5G too.

The hidden cost of food delivery

Noah Lichtenstein Contributor Share on Twitter Noah Lichtenstein is the founder and managing partner of Crossover , a diversified private technology fund backed by institutional investors, technology execs and professional athletes and entertainers. More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
