The Nexus 6P has proven itself to be a fantastic phone which has resulted in many phone cases being designed for it. Here are the best Nexus 6P cases in a variety of different styles and levels of protection.
Spigen Rugged Armor
Spigen offers an incredibly rugged single layer TPU shell that is both durable and flexible. It has a nice carbon fiber design with glossy accents and a matte grip. The corners use Spigen’s Air Cushion Technology to help protect against small drops and bumps. It is incredibly easy to take the case on and off and fits nice and tight with the cutouts matching perfectly with the camera and USB-C port. Also works well with screen protectors. |
Spigen Thin Fit
This case is specifically designed to provide and slim and lightweight appearance. It is a hard shell made from polycarbonate that feels like you aren’t using a case at all. The texture is a soft matte-finish with a smooth coating. The buttons for volume and power are exposed so it makes it easier to press them compared to other cases that cover the buttons. This case won’t protect much against big drops, but against scratches and bumps it offers great coverage. |
SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro Series
This case is heavy duty and built to protect your Nexus 6P from accidental drops and bumps. It uses a dual layer combination of polycarbonate hard shell with flexible TPU to absorb shocks while the front cover has a screen protector to protect against scratches. The USB-C charging port has a cover that opens and there is also a belt clip holster on the back of this case. |
Spigen Neo Hybrid EX
This case consists of two pieces — a clear flexible TPU shell and a hard outer frame. The frame has reinforced cutouts for the camera and ports and a raised lip for lens and screen protection when setting the phone down. It also has an inner dot pattern on the TPU shell to prevent bubbled smudges on the back of the phone. |
Cimo Premium Slim Fit Flexible TPU Cover
This is a very slim case made of TPU to protect against small drops and bumps with a raised front lip to protect the screen when it is face down. It has a premium feel with anti-slip properties to provide a better grip, especially since this phone can feel slippery. This case adds minimal bulk to your phone and looks really fantastic and sleek. |
J&D Shock Resistant Protective Slim Cushion Jelly Case
Another TPU case for the Nexus 6P. Has good handling and anti-slip properties to prevent accidental drops. The texture feels good and the case comes in a range of colors and has a high-tech looking design. It also feels quite slim and fits tight for good drop protection. |
OMOTON High Impact Dual Layer Case
This is another dual layer case with a soft TPU interior and durable polycarbonate exterior. Offers great protection against most drops with large openings for all ports and sensors. This is a thick and tough case that is great value for the price. |
Lizimandu Blue Flower Pattern Case
This is a simple TPU shell that comes in a variety of unique textured patterns that adds some color and intrigue to your phone without sacrificing protection. All the buttons and sensors have accurate cutouts with a wide USB cutout. It feels smooth but grippy, typical of TPU material and also has room for you to add a screen protector. |
E LV Dual Layer Armor Holster Defender
A functional and rugged case with three layers of protection — hard polycarbonate exterior backing that also has a kickstand, soft silicone interior and extra padded corners for absorbing dangerous angled drops. Provides proper access to all ports and sensors. No screen protector but it does come with a belt clip. |
Mobility Waterproof Nexus 6P Case
This is a universal 100% waterproof case that is completely sealed so you can even take your phone in the pool without worry. Perfect for the outdoors, pools, boating, snowboarding and anywhere it might get wet (however it doesn’t float!). It is both touch friendly and scratch resistant so you can still use the phone while its inside the case. Also useful for keeping cash and credit cards dry inside and very easy to seal and unseal whenever you need to get something out! |
Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit Case
Made from TPU this case provides straightforward protection in an assortment of colors that are partially see-through. Minimal design with button cutouts instead of button covers and a raised lip to protect the front edges and screen of your phone. Overall a good affordable case! |
Arae Nexus 6P Leather Wallet Case
This is one of the few leather cases for the Nexus 6P and it comes in a folio wallet style to protect your phone. The inside has a TPU case to hold your phone inside the leather folio which can also be folded into a kickstand for watching videos. A wrist strap is also included. We only wish this had an auto-wake/sleep magnet to activate the phone when you open and close the wallet. |
RhinoShield CrashGuard Heavy Duty Protective Bumper
This is a very unique case design that offers heavy duty drop protection by utilizing a hard and soft polycarbonate bumper that goes around the edges of the phone. They claim it can protect against drops up to 11 feet. If you are looking to be as minimal as possible, then this is the way to go as there is no back cover. It is also compatible with most tempered glass screen protectors. |
Nillkin Nature Series Clear TPU Case
If you want to have protection but also want to show off your Nexus 6P’s sleek design, then this translucent TPU case appears almost invisible at first look. This case hugs the phone and is ultra thin to maintain the original look of your phone. Fantastic grip on both sides and easy to remove this case when needed. Thumbs up! |
Poetic Revolution Heavy Duty Protection Hybrid Case
Our last case for the Nexus 6P is this rugged polycarbonate and TPU hybrid case. It comes with a number of features including a built-in carabiner loop, side grip textures, dust and lint flaps, built-in screen protector and a metal stand that works in both portrait and landscape formats. Also offers unique corner protection for accidental drops. This case offers some of the toughest all-around protection for the Nexus 6P. |
