Best Google Pixel 10a Cases & Accessories Guide

The Ringke Fusion case is not new with the Pixel 10a, as Ringke makes it for other devices. However, it’s a solid option when it comes to clear cases for the Pixel 10a. Not only does it support MagSafe and Google’s Pixel Snap, it has air-cushioned pockets for durability with short drops and dings. The fact that it’s clear means you get to continue enjoying the lovely color of your new Pixel 10a phone. One of the reasons some people don’t like cases is because the phone they have looks great, but putting a case on it covers up that beautiful design. With the Ringke Fusion clear case, that is no longer an issue.

Ringke also made this case with a discoloration-resistant and scratch-resistant UV coating. Another big issue with cases, usually clear ones, is that they can discolor or yellow after a longer period of time. The UV coating on this case will prevent that for quite a long while, if it ever discolors in the first place. It’s also pretty thin with a raised bezel so the screen edges and stuff are still protected in the event of a drop. That being said, this isn’t a rugged case. You definitely want this if you aren’t as concerned with the ultimate protection, but if you want something that can withstand more damage, you’ll want to look at other case types.

If you just want something plan and simple, with no extra frills or special features and a clean look, then there’s really no need to go for anything other than Google’s official Pixel 10a case. These have the cleanest look you could possibly find for a phone case, and the best part is that they’re color matched to the phone. They’re drop-tested by Google so you can rest assured that they’ll add some small amounts of protection to your device. Though, we wouldn’t go dropping it all the time on purpose to test this yourself. It’s made from stain-resistant silicone, too. If you’re like us and you despise dirty tech and accessories, then you love that this is designed to prevent stain build-up.

The case is made with at least 36% recycled plastic as well. This is a good option for those who are more environmentally conscious and want to reflect that with the case they buy. This case does not support MagSafe or Pixel Snap. So be aware of that if you want something that uses the magnetic charging capabilities. The phone will, however, still be able to charge wirelessly, just not with magnets.

Kickstands are an underrated feature of cases because if you think about it, you’re probably going to spend a ton of time watching videos or some kind of content on your phone. Whether it’s while you’re eating a meal or simply taking a break, it will happen. When it does, it’s going to be a lot better to have a kickstand propping up your phone than not. With that in mind, the best kickstand case option is Spigen’s ToughArmor MagFit case. It has an easy-access kickstand on the back that feels sturdy and folds right into the back of the case so it’s nice and flush.

On top of that, this case also supports MagFit and Google’s Pixel Snap. So, if you have MaFit-compatible chargers or other accessories, this will easily work with those. This is also the ToughArmor case. Tough is in the name, and that means this case was designed to be durable in the event you accidentally drop your phone. Hopefully that never happens, but if it does, you want your phone to be protected, and Spigen’s ToughArmor case will certainly protect your phone. It comes in a few different colors as well, and’s always nice to have some options with accessories like this.

Leather cases are amazing for a few reasons. For starters, it’s hard to beat the nice feel they have in your hand. They add a natural amount of grip so you should end up with less of a chance of accidental drops. They also just look really nice. That’s why the Bellroy Leather case for the Pixel 10a is on this list. It’s a very stylish case for a stylish phone. It comes in a few different colors including Sienna, Black, and Sapphire. So you have a few options. Leather cases also do what leather naturally does. Over time, leather will start to develop a natural patina. This will enhance the look of the case and the colors will slightly change to be different shades.

This doesn’t happen overnight but if you plan to keep the phone for a while, trust us, this is a worthwhile trait for the case because it really will look that much better.

Chances are, if you’re picking up a new smartphone, you may also need a new smartwatch, and there’s really no better option for the Pixel 10a than Google’s own Pixel Watch 4. It comes in two different sizes, so you can pick your poison, and it even has both Bluetooth and LTE connectivity options. Which one of those you pick depends on whether or not you want access to the data-related features without your phone on you.

Speaking of features, the Pixel Watch 4 is packed with them. One of the most useful features is the Gemini Raise To Talk function you can enable. This comes in handy all the time, especially when you’re driving and need to get an answer to a question quickly. In most cases, you could just use your phone, but when you’re driving that’s not usually an option. Luckily, with the Pixel Watch 4, you can just raise your wrist, ask Gemini a question, and Gemini will respond. Of course, the Pixel Watch 4 also makes sure you’ll get all your Pixel 10a notifications. It tracks sleep, stress, tons of different exercise activities, and even acts as a GPS navigation unit with Google Maps.

The Pixel Buds 2a are the best bang for your buck true wireless earbuds you could ever spend your money on if you’re moving into a brand-new Pixel 10a phone. Like the Google Pixel Buds 2 Pro, the Pixel Buds 2a will have really nice integration with the Pixel phones, and since the Pixel 10a is your phone of choice, you might as well pick a pair of true wireless earbuds that are affordable, but won’t skimp on features. For starters, these are extremely comfortable. Google implemented the same twist to secure design as the Pixel Buds 2 Pro, and that really helps seal them in your ears so they won’t fall out.

They also come with active noise cancellation that works surprisingly well in a lot of different scenarios. Whether you’re shopping and trying to ignore the noisy environment or you simply want to block out the noisiness of your home so you can have a few moments of peace, these will get the job done. They also come with decent battery life and charge up relatively fast. Google offers these in a few different colors, and as you might have guessed, some of them match the colors of the Pixel 10a.

If you’re buying the Pixel 10a, then it already comes with a USB-C cable inside the box, but it doesn’t hurt to have extras. You can essentially keep these as spare cables that you have for backups at home in case something happens to the original, or you can use them as travel and commute options. For instance, if you commute for work and you like bringing a charger with you, then you should absolutely bring a second charger and a second cable, while the main ones stay at home. That way, if you forget it, it doesn’t really matter, because you’ll still have a home charger for your device when needed.

The nice thing about these particular USB-C cables from UGREEN is that these support 100W charging. While the Pixel 10a doesn’t support charging this fast, you can still use these cables for other things in addition to the Pixel 10a. Such as your laptops, gaming handhelds, and anything else that really does need charging at a higher output. Plus, it’s $9.99 for a two-pack of cables which is a really good deal. Especially when they come from UGREEN, which makes excellent power products. The cables are braided and 3.3 feet long as well.

While the Pixel 10a does come with a USB-C charging cable, what it doesn’t come with is an adapter. That being the case, you will need one to charge the phone if you don’t already have one, and even if you do, you might want an upgrade to a better charger. The Anker Nano 45W charger is your best friend because it can charge at up to 45W, and that’s more than enough for the Pixel 10a, and it will even work for devices like the Nintendo Switch 2 and some other handhelds.

This is the perfect charger for those who want something compact and travel-ready. It’s small enough to store in most bag pockets and small pockets of luggage, making it an ideal option if you need something powerful that won’t take up a bunch of room. What’s neat about this charger too, is that the prongs are foldable, making it more compact when not in use. Plus, they fold 180 degrees. Thiis makes it possible to have the USB-C port facing directly outwards or down. The idea here is that when it’s facing down, you’re less likely to be able to pull the cable out and thereby puling the adapter out of the socket. Though, it also gives you options in which plugs you can use because the cable may or may not get in the way. Normally, this charger is $39.99, but it’s currently on sale for $29.99.

Screen protectors are one of the single most important accessories you can buy for your phone. In the event that you drop it or accidentally bump the screen up against something, the screen has a chance to crack, and you definitely don’t want that happening. With a screen protector on the phone, there’s a very good chance that in these types of situations, only the screen protector cracks. If that happens, it’s much cheaper to replace the screen protector than the phone’s display. Not all screen protectors are created equal, either. However, this one from OMOTON comes with a 9H hardness which is great, and it’s a two-pack so, if the first one cracks, you can take it off and apply the other one. What makes this even better is that it comes with an alignment tool that makes it virtually impossible to mess up the application of the screen protector.

If you’ve ever been in a situation where you misaligned the screen protector on your phone, you know how frustrating it can be. Your only choices at that point are to remove the screen protector and waste a good one, or live with the misalignment. Neither of those choices is ideal. So, the best course of action is to just remove that variable from the start.
