The Pixelbook is a spendy Chromebook—it's even expensive compared to non-Chrome computers, in fact. Given the price, you might be willing to go a little crazy to protect your investment. Thus, you can drop a whopping $89.99 on the Tech21 Evo Adapt case that just appeared on the Google Store.
Read MoreThis 'airbag' smartphone case is both absurd and brilliant
Smartphone cases, in all their various forms, are meant to do one thing: guard our increasingly expensive pocket-sized supercomputers in case we lose our grip as we absentmindedly jab at them with one finger while also walking and drinking coffee. There are many that do a pretty good job of this, but a German engineering student was evidently dissatisfied with the level of protection afforded by what's currently on the market. So, naturally, he created ADcase, a silly and wonderful contraption that detects when your phone is falling and ejects springy spider legs to dampen its impact.

ZeroLemon, an industry leader in battery cases, has released its high-capacity models for the Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+. These cases not only pack a lot of battery life, but offer a great deal of impact protection. You can even add more functionality by purchasing the compatible belt clip, making it great for use on work sites, outdoor activities, and anywhere else you want protection and ease of access.
Read MoreThe most underrated feature of OnePlus phones? The cases
OnePlus has a lot of things going for its phones. They're usually the least expensive way to get flagship specs like the latest high-end Qualcomm SoC, and the software experience is close to stock Android. But, in my opinion, their best feature isn't something you're likely to notice unless you spend a bit more time and money on the company's store. That's because the first-party wood and Kevlar cases OnePlus sells are, without exception, the single nicest I've ever used.
Read MoreGoogle designer Ivy Ross shows off prototypes of Pixel 2, Pixelbook, Home Mini, and more
Prototypes are always cool to see, but us consumers don't often get to do so. It's nice to take a look at how the designs of products evolve from the drawing board all the way to our homes, pockets, and backpacks. An interview with Google hardware designer Ivy Ross recently went up on The Keyword, and embedded within are photos of several Google products' prototypes.

Read MoreProtect your new LG V30 with one of Zizo's bold, modern cases [Sponsored Post]
It's insane how case manufacturers want to charge consumers for a simple phone case. OtterBox, for instance, wants a whopping $60 for a Defender, a case that isn't even out yet for LG's new V30. But if you like saving a ton of money and still want a tough MIL-STD 810.1G-compliant product, look no further than Zizo's BOLT, STATIC, and ION cases for the V30. Each of the three cases offers great value, and at least one is bound to fit your needs.
Read MoreThe 'Made for Google' site is up with links to recommended accessories
Google is taking accessories more seriously this year with the "Made for Google" program. Products bearing this label have been designed by a certified Google partner to work with devices like the Pixel phones, Pixelbook, and more. If only there was some handy website that showed you all the accessories in the program. Oh hey, that's a thing now.

Google announces 'made for Google' program to certify accessories
The focus of today's announcement might have been the new Pixel phones, but Google also had a nice little surprise that accompanied all the hardware-related news. At the bottom of the blog post for the new Pixel phones, Google revealed that it has a new program called "made for Google" which certifies that accessories like cases, cables, and headphones from different manufacturers meet the company's stringent requirements.
Read MoreGoogle's official Pixel 2 cases include fabric, Bellroy leather, and more
What would a Google phone launch be without a bunch of fancy (and expensive) new phone cases in the Google Store? The Pixel team is really going all out this year with more materials, partners, and even a crazy photo lens case.
