Clearly a good choice: Spigen Liquid Crystal
Staff pickThis case is great for those who love to show off their new phones without compromising on protection, and it does so without adding too much extra bulk.
All-in for Google: Google Fabric Case
Google's fabric cases are fantastic. They look great, offer rugged protection, and also come with accent colors for the power button.
Sleek and rugged: Ringke Onyx
Ringke offers this slim one-piece TPU case that looks great, delivers the protection you need for your phone, and even includes a lanyard.
Wirelessly charge in style: Google Pixel Stand
The Pixel Stand is more than a wireless charger — it's designed by Google to turn your phone into a bedside alarm clock that does more thanks to Assistant.
More power!: Google 18W USB-C Power Adapter
You'll need this adapter for the fastest wired charging times. It works over USB PD, connects via USB C to C, and is the best way to charge your Pixel.
Backup buds: Google Pixel USB-C earbuds
These USB-C earbuds let you control Google Assistant and access notifications and more without breaking your stride to look at your Pixel 3.
Wirelessly charge for less: Anker 15W Wireless Charger
Anker's wireless charging pad delivers up to 15W of power — more than the Google Pixel Stand. The biggest selling feature here is the price point.
An affordable wall adapter: Anker 18W wall adapter
Anker also has an 18W wall adapter that's ideal for charging your Pixel 3 — as long as you've got a USB-A-to-USB-C cable kicking around.
Charge on the go: Belkin USB-C Car Charger
Available in your choice of a hardwired USB-C cable that includes a second USB-A port or a single USB-C port. Trusted by Google and backed by Belkin.
Reliable portable power: Anker PowerCore 20100+
Anker's PowerCore+ battery pack is a good combination of portability while also packing enough battery power for multiple top-ups.
Protect that screen: amFilm Glass Screen Protector for Google Pixel 3 (3-pack)
Google sells a premium tempered glass screen protector, but we'll hedge our bets and also recommend these low-cost, paper-thin screen protectors.
Made for Google: InvisibleShield Glass+ Vision Guard
This Google-approved screen protector covers the display and has cutouts around the speakers at the top and bottom of the display, and a blue light filter.
Wireless buds for your Pixel: Google Pixel Buds
Google's wireless earbuds are an enticing option if you want live translations on the go and a lightweight design backed by Google Assistant smarts.
No headphone jack? No problem!: Jabra Move Wireless Headphones
These Bluetooth beauties from Jabra are lightweight with an adjustable stainless steel band, making them comfortable to listen to for hours on end.
Mobile gaming gear: Stadia Controller
Forget touch screen games; use this Google-designed, comfortable controller as you stream and play PC-quality games on your Pixel 3. This is also the only way to play Stadia on your TV.
Fun on the go: Razer Kishi
Slide your Pixel 3 directly inside and turn it into a mini-handheld gaming console. Razer Kishi runs off your Pixel's power and needs no charging.
The right accessories let you do more with your phone
Google unveiled a ton of cool tech alongside the Pixel 3, including the Google Pixel Stand, but you can get a quality wireless charging pad from Anker if you don't think those extra Google bells and whistles are worth the extra cash.
If protection is your main priority, you should pick out a case — my top recommendation is the Spigen Liquid Crystal which is affordable and lets your phone's design shine through. For much more, you can enjoy the look and feel of the Google Fabric Case which is pricy but undoubtedly fabulous.
