I installed whitestone dome twice over a six month period. The first time, the phone cracked under the protector. The protector was fine, but the phone wasn't. I spent the $15+$6 to ship back the protector and get a warranty replacement. Within a week, the protector lifted off a corner. I wrote their support and they didn't reply. I took it off and within a week, I dropped my phone on asphalt and the display cracked again.

uBreakiFix has liquid glass screen protector that offers a warranty for 1 year. If you crack the glass, it is just $20 to replace it. It is probably snake oil but I rather go that route than spend another $50 on a wsd without any insurance in the event the glass breaks.

I have a tough armor it's bulky, you'll lose 40% feel of a pixel 4a - petit, handy feel. But since I don't have drop protection screen insurance in my region, I've gone this route to get a case which is third inline to poetic's two cases when it comes to protection in a similar price range and extending the physical durability of the device.Very understated look no flashy highlights on the back of the case and the popup stand even though fragile offers decent stability. Keep in mind to not harshly open it.

Apart from lesser protection, I didn't choose the rugged armor because of the highlight it makes with the carbon fiber look on the top quarter of the phone. It kinda overstates itself. I personally like everything black or gray and not flashy.
