    Case is great, but doesn't work with magnetic charger. You have to remove case to charge or use car vent mount.

      Hi there,

      We're so sorry about this. That's strange because this Symmetry Series case was designed to work with the MagSafe charger seamlessly. that could be due to any of a few different factors, such as the particular platform being used and the specific placement of the Apple/Otter combo on it. In addition, you might find it helpful to reboot both your device and charger and also to check and see if there have been any firmware or operating system updates to either.

      If you're still having trouble, please feel free to give us a call at 1 (855) 688-7269 and we'd be happy to help.

    I had this case for only three months before I needed to contact OtterBox for a replacement. I had accidentally dropped my phone and the corner of the case cracked. Thank goodness, my phone was fine. However, I expected this case to last much longer than three months.

    Disappointed in BestBuy service

    I always thought Best Buy was the place to go for quality products and excellent service. This was not the case here. I was ready to plunk down $900 + for an iPhone 12. I knew what I wanted and came to Best Buy to advise on Accessories and transfer information from my old phone to my new one and to make the connection with my service provider. First of all, although the website for this store said the iPhone was in stock, it was not! So I had to order it and come back. I also had to prove my identity to spend my money. Then to activate etc., I could have bought a new car car in the time it took to do this. Then I had to physically go to the Verizon store to trade in my old phone. Next time I am going straight to the Verizon Store to buy my iPad or iPhone. I am very disappointed with Best Buy. I won’t even start to tell you about the Geek Squad failure to transfer data from one computer to another. I still can’t find my medical files.

      Hi there,

      We're sorry for your mixed feelings about this Symmetry Series case. If you're looking for something grippier, we'd recommend our Defender Series case. Please feel free to check it out on our OtterBox website.

    Very slick so it feels like you’re going to drop your phone. Additionally, it’s very difficult to put the phone inside the case because it’s a little too small. It will go in but if feels like he might do damage to your phone – not good! This is not the case with other colors in the Symmetry line. I now have the black version and it works well.

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear about your frustration with your Symmetry Series Clear, but we're glad to hear that you 're liking that black case! If you decide to give that Symmetry Series Clear case another try, we have a helpful tip for easier installation of that OtterBox. We recommend installing the case on the right corner first. Once your camera and power buttons are in the case, move counterclockwise, and you should have an easier time installing the other three corners!

      Hi there!

Keep in mind, that price is reflective of not only the hundreds of hours of design testing to ensure your case will protect your phone against the abuses of daily life, but also our world-class warranty that covers your OtterBox. That being said, it's certainly odd to hear that your case is causing some issues with your power button.

      Hi there,

      We're bummed to hear this Symmetry Series case didn't work out for you. When installing a Symmetry Series case for iPhone 12/12 Pro/12 Pro Max/12 mini, we recommend starting with the upper right corner of the device (camera and power button corner). After that, the following 3 corners should pop on much easier. The same goes for the removal too.

      We really hope this experience doesn't turn you away for good. We're always trying to improve the Otter experience so we'd love to pass your feedback along to our product design team for future consideration. In the meantime, if you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us through our website under "How Can We Help You?" and select "General Questions."
