I changed from an IPhone to a Google phone and needed a new case. I love this clear case with a pink edge - perfect for my not pink Google Pixel 3 XL phone. Fits well, looks sharp, and came quickly.
I wish it was an actual LifeProof case, where it was waterproof as well and had a screen protector included in the case. Other than that it's pretty nice.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hey Michael,
We're sorry to see that you're feeling some slight apprehension towards the NËXT series! While this particular design may not be waterproof, it does still offer intense protection against dirt, snow, and drops, while also providing direct access to your curved phone display. We're positive that the unit should successfully safeguard your Pixel 3 XL for a long time going forward! If you have any other questions, feel free to call our friendly representatives at 1-888-533-0735, and they'll be glad to further assist you!
Have purchased two lifeproof cases in the past for previous phones and loved them. They provided total protection to my devices. So when it came time to buy this case for my phone I trusted the fact that the case would fully protect my phone. I was wrong. If you are looking for a case to protect you phone from life, this isn't it. Unlike previous lifeproof cases I have bought this case doesn't even cover your camera or screen. This case does the same thing as any other cheap case you can buy, but it costs twice as much. This case is life resistant at best, can't recommend buying, because it isn't actually going to protect your phone. This is the last time I will blindly trust the lifeproof brand. If your thinking about buying this case, don't do it. Save your money and buy a cheap shock resistant case.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Lumlegger,
We're so sorry to see that this NËXT series didn't quite meet your expectations! True, the NËXT does differ from the FRĒ, especially with its open design. The case was engineered with this streamlined style in order to provide full device functionality so that you could completely enjoy your Google Pixel 3 XL!
Rest assured, this NËXT passed all of our extensive tests to ensure that it is ready to protect your investment from dirt, snow, and drops. We're confident that it should prove its worth time and time again! If you have any additional questions on this, please feel welcome to call our friendly representatives at 1-888-533-0735, and they'll be thrilled to help out!
I bought this case rather than the defender series of OtterBox simply because I wanted a slimmer case, but with the hope it would still be just as protected. I drop my phone a lot and need it to hold up against a bit of abuse. So far, it's held up nicely. I haven't dropped it yet, though. So hopefully, when the time comes, it'll come out fine from the ordeal.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Volume buttons stop being responsive
on December 20, 2021

Great case initially but the rubber sides quickly wore off and the rubber buttons over the volume up/down soon became unresponsive. I then had to take the phone out of the case to adjust the volume. A one year warranty for an expensive case which is "LifeProof" is ridiculous. This case was anything but "LifeProof". Very disappointed.

We're very sorry to hear of the structural struggles you've had with your current LifeProof NËXT case at its sides and control button covers.
We're actually quite happy to extend our warranty beyond the one-year mark; however, that is subject to whether or not we still make and/or have stock available. Unfortunately, we no longer have products that support the Google Pixel 3.
Although we aren't able to help in this instance, please do feel welcome to reach us at 1-888-533-0735 if we can ever be of assistance down the road.
I though this case wouldn't be able to handle my life style. It is great. Working in construction I need a solid case and I think this will do it. Haven't take it to work yet because I have no way to protect screen from scratches but I'm sure once I get a film screen protector this thing will be solid.
I bought this a few weeks back hoping to finally have that case that would totally protect my phone while I was at work, but alas, to my discovery, it did not offer screen protection, a main priority for me. I need screen protection on my pixel 3xl
This is my 2nd lifeproof case and always stands up to the test of time and daily use and abuse. Protected my Pixel 2XL and now I have a 3XL it needs the same love and protection. Lifeproof was my only go to case for my investment.
