That case looks amazing.

Just got round to trying it in the car with my magnetic wireless mount. Nice and secure, pretty much the same strength as my 14 Pro with leather mag safe case.

This one is nice and slim as well so adds next to no bulk. Highly recommended if you are after a slim case.

Yea I stopped frequenting craigslist when they were getting cracked down on by the feds and dropped the "casual encounters" section 🙁;)

I KID, I KID, I've been a happily married man for a long, long time!

Sorry to hear @BMox81
Let us know what you end up doing.

In other news, my screen protector and my case just arrived. I went with a Spigen screen protector and it's pretty bad. It has black borders around the glass and I think it's eating into the screen a little. It had one of those plastic moudks to line the protector up perfectly, but I don't think it has.

The case was a clear one from Amazon and it is awful. It'll do for now when I go out and about but think I may go for an official Google one.

Thanks for posting this regarding the screen protector. Now I know I don't even need to open mine up and just return it to Amazon. I noticed it looked like it had a black border on it on the amazon pictures but figured it may have just been an error. I've always used the glas.tr screen protectors from Spigen and never had a black border. Why they would they start doing that cheap crap now is beyond me. Looks like I'll be looking elsewhere.

Anyone already charged their phone how much time takes?

This is a strange question. Does it not depend on the charger used? Are you specifically asking for fast charging speed? You need to be clearer.
My phone charges on the pixel stand and I choose the setting that takes my alarm wake up into consideration so it slowly charges until that time when it tops it up to full. So to answer your question - 8 hours.
Everyone else will give a different answer.

That's the same screen protector I got and I hate that they would put a black border on it. My phone is going to be porcelain so not sure how it will look. I may return mine, too, even though I've always loved Spigen.

At low brightness the white text is red when Always on Display is active. Anyone else notice this?

I wonder if it’s like my Apple Watch turns red in dark areas instead of the current watch face …let’s see what folks here come back …
