TORRAS Magnetic & Stand for Google Pixel 8 Pro Case, Fit for MagSafe, 12FT Mil-Grade Drop Protection, Slim Fit for Google Pixel 8 Pro Phone Case with Built-in Flush Kickstand, Translucent Matte Black

This review is for the Google Pixel 8 Pro kickstand, magsafe case from Torras. I've broken down my review into three parts describing features that I consider most important regarding a phone case. I think others searching for a quality case for their own smartphone should find this helpful. Price: I spent a good amount of time searching on Google as well as Amazon looking for a phone case that came with a kickstand. Although this kickstand case by Torras was on the pricier end of the spectrum, it was NOT the most expensive case by far. With many phone cases, you really get what you pay for, so if you you're looking for a good case to protect your phone, you're going to have shell out some money. Fortunately, with this Torras case you get great quality and value. Regarding quality, let's talk about the kickstand. My biggest concern with any kickstand case would be the durability and quality of the kickstand. One of the biggest complaints I found reading reviews for other case providers was that the kickstand oftentimes was flimsy and ultimately failed rather quickly. I'll say that thus far the kickstand on the Torras case feels very sturdy and not at all shaky while propping my phone up. Only time will tell how long the kickstand lasts, but I'll be sure to provide and update if or when it begins to fail. This also comes with a magsafe magnet, but I have yet to use it, so I can't speak to that yet. Fit: Excellent! The case fits very snug on my Pixel 8 Pro. I am not at all fearful of it slipping out of the case. The case profile is also very slim, so the case does not add much bulk to an already big and heavy Pixel phone. The case exterior also provides a nice grip, so it doesn't feel like my phone is going to slip out of my hand. Protection: I've already accidentally dropped my phone a few times with the Torras case on, and my phone remains damage free. Because the fit is so perfect, my phone feels very well protected from edge to edge. Another thing I'll point out that is great about this case is that the interior part of the case does NOT make little microscratches on my phone. I've had cases in the past that have completely scratched up the edges of my phones and thus far I have not had that issue my the Torras case.

Very well made case, fits perfectly and feels solid. Cases are essential for anyone who wants to take care of their phone, and this one is really great. I wanted rubberised protection with a kick stand and mag charge support. Not tested the mag charge yet, but the kick stand is great very stable and well engineered. Snaps closed in a very satisfying way too. The back attracts fingerprints but seems easy to wipe clean. Internationally shipped to the UK so it took longer than I hoped but the seller responded quickly with additional tracking info when I reached out. Highly recommended for Pixel 8 Pro. The only negative after a few weeks use is that in landscape mode when using the kickstand the volume buttons are facing down so they are impossible to use.

Slippery is not an issue, like many complaints here indicated. I wanted to mention it since so many negative reviews come from this issue alone. The slippery property comes from the manufacture process that left some coating on the product after it was made. This is a common issue among toy models such as Gundam. Simply wash it with dish soap or wipe with some sort of cleaning agent before first use, it would no longer be slippery. (If you don't, then it is indeed very slippery straight out of the box lol) Case is an exact fit for my Pixel 9. The cover for the camera lenses is raised around the edge, so the lenses never really touch the surface. The kick stand is sturdy for my initial week of use. It's more useful than many cases out there that only support either landscape or portrait orientation. This kick stand supports both orientations. The magnetic ring in the back is stronger than the other brands I have used before, very satisfied. Overall, I would give this case a 4.5 (due to the initial slippery issue) but I had to choose between a 4 or a 5, I went with a 5 for my overall satisfaction. (I have used countless cases since my first smartphone usage back in 2006)

Pros: Fits the Pixel 9 well. Allows charging nicely on everything I've tried. Grippy enough for me, and easy to put on/remove. The stand works well enough. Cons: Some paint coming off stand. It's a little top heavy in the vertical position. Some small dust/debris gets in around the edges, but I think that's typical for cases without a screen cover. Overall nice and works well for me. I have a 'ring' magnetic mount in the car, and it holds firmly in place with this case.

I bought this case to pair with a Journey Express wireless charger in my car. It was easy to install on the phone and works great with the wireless charger. Off the charger, it has a decent texture and doesn't slip around on smooth surfaces. A nice, slim design that seems more durable than other cases I've tried. As others have stated, it does not work at all with a Gen 2 Pixel Stand. It tries, but the stand light almost immediately goes orange. I bought a Gen 1 stand and it will "mostly" work with that if the phone is set in the exact right spot and pressed tight against the stand. Quite often, though, I will wake up to another orange light and a phone that hasn't been charging. I'd like to be able to use a Pixel stand but with this case it's unreliable so I'll either have to get a MagSafe stand or just use a direct plug in.
