Google has unveiled a new accessory for Pixel phones — the Rope Wristlet. This move follows in the footsteps of Apple, which introduced its crossbody strap alongside the iPhone 17 launch. Google’s Rope Wristlet is designed to offer convenience and portability for users, providing a stylish yet functional way to carry your Pixel phone hands-free.
What is the Rope Wristlet?
The Rope Wristlet is a polyester cord with a carabiner on one end that easily clips onto a D-ring plate. This plate sits between your phone and its case, allowing you to securely dangle your device by wrapping the cord around your wrist.
While Google markets this as an accessory for Pixel devices, it can also be used with other smartphones. However, it’s important to note that the accessory is not compatible with the Pixel Fold phones, as per the official Google Store page.
Design and Features
The Rope Wristlet is available in three dual-tone color options:
- Purple/Blue
- Black/Grey
- Green/Yellow
The strap also includes a Google logo, adding a touch of branding to the accessory. Though practical, the Rope Wristlet does not appear to have the same premium feel as Apple’s Crossbody Strap. Its simple design is intended for users seeking an affordable, functional way to carry their phone.
Pricing and Availability
The Rope Wristlet is priced at just $7 in the United States, making it an affordable accessory for Pixel phone users.
