OtterBox - Symmetry Series Hard Shell for MagSafe for Apple iPhone 16 Pro - Autumn Rust

Upgrading from the XS so the 16 Pro is a big jump. The first off-putting issue is the large cut-out for the camera control button along the lower right edge of the case. This large gap in case material makes the phone awkward to pick up and handle because my fingers aren't completely on the case and some touch the button. I wish this case had more case material around the camera control button so that picking up the case feels more natural and protects the camera control button from accidental presses. The complete notch break in the case is a poor design choice and also weakens the structural integrity of the case. My second biggest issue is the lack of camera protection. The raised border around the camera does not sit flush with the back of the case causing the phone to never lay flat because of the camera bump. I wish this case would have made the back flush with the camera with a few extra mm of space so all of the camera lenses would not touch a flat surface with the screen up. Comparing this case with my Symmetry XS case, the camera on my XS sits slightly recessed into the case and laying my phone on a flat surface has never been a concern. The 16 Pro Symmetry is also missing rubber material around the perimeter of the screen, which protects the screen when screen-side down. I do not plan to keep using this case for very long once additional case options are available that have a lay-flat feature to protect the camera lenses and provide a better grip for everyday use. See photos for more info.

Good protection without being excessively bulky. There are thinner cases available, but this one suits our needs well, balancing size and protection. It’s taken several drops already and served its purpose. Also has wireless charging and can magnetically attach to a mount in the car, great convenience!

For the price this is a good case. The buttons feel tactical, it’s not as slippery as other see-through cases, I like the cut out for the camera button, and it has eyelets in the bottom corner that you can use for a wristlet or charms. Only difference (and I’m not upset) I bought the case in the color ‘Thimbleberry’ and it is more vivid in person.

Purchased this on a sale. I’ve already dropped my phone several times without incident. I love the slim design so it’s not too bulky but still protects my phone. Also knowing the otterbox warranty will replace their product should something happen is an additional peace of mind. I purchased a glass screen protector since this cover only covers the sides and back of the phone and not the screen. Always satisfied with otterbox and very pleased with this particular case.

very happy with this case, i use a magesafe wallet on the back and it works perfect. also can use my car magsafe mount. love the color. I am a bit clumsy and drop phone often it seems to be protecting my phone very well

Love the color and quality of my phone protector. It fits perfectly. Definitely works as it absorbed the shock of a fall.

Solid, high quality, reliable case. Nice snug fit. Good drop protection. Only flaw is the design of the camera button cutout.

does a great job protecting the phone. fit great as well.
