Many appreciate its slim profile and how well it protects their phones. However, some customers are negative about the case's tendency to scratch, its lack of grip, and limited color options. A few also mentioned that the case is not as bulky as some alternatives.

    The case was great while it lasted. I still have my iPhone 8 but the Otterbox clear case has turned dark brown and the silicone sides have started to peel away from the acrylic case

    This case isn’t one of my favorites. It’s the 3rd one that I’ve purchased. The edges of this case doesn’t stay clear. It develops a yellowish color along the edges over time.

    The case was very sleek and pretty but the plastic hurt my ear every time I talked on the phone. It rubbed my ear raw. I had to return it. So I chose a different otter box case.

      Dear Karen,

      Oh no, we're so sorry to see that this Symmetry series was so "ear-itating!"

      All jokes, aside, it is certainly bizarre that this particular unit was sporting such a rough edge, since normally our cases are smooth and sleek. Had you contacted us, we would have been ready and willing to set you up with a warranty replacement, but we also definitely understand your decision to go with a different style. We trust that your current OtterBox is making all your case dreams come true, but if you do run into any further questions, please feel welcome to call our wonderful Otters at 1-855-688-7269. They're always thrilled to provide assistance!

      Sincerely,
      OtterBox Customer Service Team otterbox

      Dear Blair,

We'll be happy to pass your feedback along to our product design team, and in the meantime, if you have any further questions, please feel free to call our Otter experts at 1-855-688-7269.

      Hey Ames28,

      We're so sorry to hear that your Symmetry series decided to pull a chameleon act and turn a different color!

Feel free to give them a call at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll send over a sleek new replacement in practically no time at all!

      Hi Jon43,

      Our apologies that you're feeling slightly uneasy towards the open-faced design of the streamlined Symmetry series! While this case passed all of our extensive tests to ensure excellent drop protection, if you're looking for a little extra peace of mind in the form of an enclosed case, we would suggest our Defender series. The Defender sports a multi-layer style, which additionally includes a built-in screen protector. Take a peek by following the link below, and if you have any additional queries, our customer service team is just a call away at 1-855-688-7269!
