Bellroy Leather Case for Pixel 7 Pro – (Slim Phone Case) - Bluestone

I purchased this particular case because I read that Bellroy designed it in conjunction with Google specifically for the Pixel 7 Pro. It does fit like a glove, looks great and I'm no longer scared of dropping my phone because it has a comfortable grip due to the leather case. I cannot speak to how durable this case will be, I've just had it a week.

Nice leather case by Bellroy for the Pixel 7 Pro. Basalt is a bluish grey color that's usually sold out. I waited for several weeks for it to come back in stock. I am glad I did. The inside of the case had a felt like lining, so that your phone doesn't get scratched. That's another great touch to this case. It is well worth the money. If you are thinking about it, I recommend you get yours before they sell out.

Pixel phones tend to be a bit slippery. The stock cases go too far the other way and feel rubbery. The leather finish on this case gives good grip, whilst feeling pleasant. And it looks classy too

This case looks and feels great but isn't very durable. This one lasted me about 3 months before it broke around the camera.

The Bellroy case is probably one of the better cases you can get for the Pixel 7 series, but it has some flaws. A replacement was issued as the first case was scratched out of the box and had crooked buttons that were difficult to press.PROS:+Slim profile, lightweight+Great color options, Bluestone is a dark subtle gray blue+Raised lip around all four sides should give decent protection+Suede like inside keep the back glass from getting dinged up+Metallic buttons look and feel great+Precise cutouts for ports+Lays flat on the table, keeps the camera bar slightly recessedCONS:-Doesn't have as much grip as many leather cases, not much texture to the leather-The sides of the camera bar are a bit too exposed-Paying over $50 for this case is a ripoff-Poor quality control as some have crooked buttons and leather defects-The rigid frame is difficult to remove and probably isn't very forgiving in a dropUnfortunately, there aren't many high quality options available for the Pixel 7 Pro. If you're looking for a stylish case, and are okay with light protection, case wear over time, this could be the case for you. If you want something grippy and are accident prone, look at other cases.

I've had it for almost a year and it's been holding together really well. I'm looking to get another one because I got a bit rough removing it to clean and cracked the case around the camera.

I didn't usually write reviews , but this has to be said. I have this cover for 2 weeks. The "leather" already discolored and peeling. The edges look like the phone has been in a war zone. The premium feel that it had as a new cover changed into a cheap plastic one. I can see how such a cover can have these problems after a couple of years, but two weeks is a huge disappointment. Expected way way more from bellroy.

First, the positives. It was half off on the Google store and I had some credits from a recent purchase so I only paid shipping on this. It's not a bad looking case when it was new. The interior has a really nice to the touch velvet surface.Now the bad. This case is *really* difficult to get on and off your phone. I'm always very careful to put it in button side first because I'm scared it would pull the buttons out of the side of the phone if I didn't. The power and volume buttons don't feel great with the case on. It makes the normally pretty snappy side buttons on my Pixel 7 Pro feel pretty imprecise and mushy. Next, the durability is lacking in my opinion. I don't mean protection from drops, it feels sturdy and I think it'd survive a drop find and probably protect the phone well, but the case finish itself is already wearing off on the sides and I've done nothing but have this in the pocket of some slacks most of the time. Both sides of the phone look like they've been severely worn and the outer finish is rubbing off leaving behind a shinier surface underneath. The shiny part isn't bad, but with the contrast between the two and the irregular wear pattern, it just looks like an old case, and it's only about 3 month old.For a case that I got essentially for free with device credits on the google store, it's fine, but for the MSRP this isn't worth it. Right after I got my phone I picked up a Spigen Liquid Air which I stashed in a drawer after "upgrading" to the Bellroy case, but it really feels like a downgrade. The Spigen is half the price and better in almost every respect in my opinion, aside from looking like a premium leather case, which the Bellroy only achieved for a couple of months.
