Unicorn Beetle Pro Full-Body Rugged Holster Case for Google Pixel 5A (2021 Release), Tilt

I've used this brand on my past 3 pixel phones. I've had my current phone for almost 3 years. About every 6 months I take the case off to clean under it. Very little gets through this case. Seriously, my phone looks like it's a few months old, not 3 years. Love it!

I picked this case because the Unicorn Beatle case I got for my iPad 6 yrs ago is still going strong and has protected it from a zillion drops and scratches by my kids. The iPad looks like new when I remove it from that case. I KNOW it is going to keep my new phone safe. I picked it ONLY for use when I'm hiking or backpacking where I am more likely to break my phone. The clip holster attaches to my backpack straps making it easy/fast to grab as it clips in and out of the holster easily. The buttons and cut outs are well placed and I don't have to push extra hard or anything. I like the screen protector and it doesn't mess up ease of use. I've dropped my phone a few times on the trail (rocks) and in camp (dirt) without issue. It is definitely bulky and the rubbery corners make it hard to pull in and out of a pants pocket. Easy fix but I don't always bother to switch the holster to my pants. My hands are small so I use a popsocket and I'm able to keep that on and use the holster. This does everything I need it to. It's perfect for rough times on the trail. I don't need the same level of protection on the daily so I use a slimmer case at home. It's a bit of a pain to get this case off (easy on though) but it's worth it for the protection when I need it. I've broken 2 other phones on trail so I don't want to mess around this time.

I bought my phone back in late November of 2021 (Google Pixel 5a) and purchased the black version of this phone case. I only decided last week to get a new phone case because I had dropped my phone really hard and shattered the glass screen protector. The phone case was in tact, but I had broken the hard shell and a portion of the kickstand. I probably could have continued using it because it was functional, but I was buying a new screen protector anyways and the cosmetic damage after a year and a half of use was fairly noticeable.Tip: if you want to really protect your screen, don’t rely on the plastic film. In both cases of purchasing this phone, I have popped out the plastic to use a glass screen protector. I tried using both tempered glass and the built in plastic, but I lost functionality of the touchscreen. I personally think this also looks far better.

I really do like the case - the design and what feels like the sturdiness. It's just too bad that it has to come with the screen and holster.I already scratched the screen digging it out of the case to put the phone in it, and it smears quite easily. Undoubtedly I will remove it with an exacto knife as others have described.And that holster - it feels great and sturdy, but why? Do most people really use this? I tossed mine somewhere and couldn't even guess where it is now...who cares?Overall, I am quite happy with the case, but I wish there was an option to buy it without the screen and the holster.

It protects pretty good works with my pixel 5a

I had used Otterbox cases before but they weren't available for my Pixel 5a with 5g. Researched a lot, which I do, asnd decided on the case. I've been very pleased. Had it 5 mos. now. Dropped it a time or two accidentally but no breakage problems. Kickstand is good, esp for horizontal viewing, even with charger in place. I love a case with a clip and they're hard to find. I am as lady but love to clip my phone into my pocket or to my crossbody purse for easy but secure access when traveling light. Can clip it to a pocket of my tote bag. I feel evure it won't fall out. This has been as good or a better case than previous Otterboxes and even at a cheaper price. Recommend you try it!

The case is sturdy and rugged and fits the phone well. I dropped my phone while in this case and it hit right on an edge. Saw that there was a crack running diagonally along the phone face but, it turns out, the crack was only in the plastic screen protector. My phone was protected. The crack on the screep protector made the case almost unusable and I was disappointed with that. I did email them to tell them what happened and they immediately sent me another case. They actually honored their warranty. Kudos and I'd buy from the again.

This is an awesome case design but I think it retains too much heat. My phone keeps over heating ever since installing this case. I ended up cutting out the plastic screen cover to allow the phone to dissipate heat and it stopped over heating.
