    Not the quality I have come to expect from other box, once on it is okay. But very tight, so much so that the 1 piece case actually got a couple cracks/tiny breaks in the material. Would not purchase again

    Clear plastic shows off the nice finish of the Note 9. But with no ridges on the side, cover feels a bit slippery and couldn't grip the phone securely. Scared of dropping it especially near water.

      Hi Ross,

      We apologize that you're feeling a little nervous about the Galaxy Note 9 Symmetry series! It you're running into issues with grip, we would suggest taking a peek at the Defender series, which sports an outer rubber silicone that should offer extra resistance. Check it out via the link below, and if any other questions pop up, our friendly Otters are just a call away at 1-855-688-7269!

    Outside is smooth and slippery. The S8 case from them had ribs on the back to provide grip. Also has a tendency to slide around because of no grip.

      Hi Batt25,

      We apologize that this Symmetry series wasn't exactly what you were looking for to protect your Galaxy Note 9! It sounds like you might be more interested in our Defender case, which sports an outer rubber exterior for additional grip. Feel free to check it out via the link below, and give our awesome Otters a ring at 1-855-688-7269 with any questions!

      Hi Stew,

      We apologize that this Symmetry series isn't quite matching up with your preferences! For fingerprints that pop up on our cases, we typically recommend using a trusty microfiber cloth to wipe any smudges away. If this doesn't clean things up, please feel welcome to call our handy Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll gladly help you find a quick (and tidy) fix!

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear about your wife's disappointment with her Symmetry Series case! Our cases are compatible with wireless charging, but there is always some variance between the performances of different chargers. We'd suggest giving another charger a try!

      Hi Daniel,

      We're so sorry to hear that your Galaxy Note 9 did not end up surviving a tragic drop with this Symmetry series. Our cases go through an intense amount of testing to make sure they provide the best device protection possible, but unfortunately, every fall is subject to a number of different dynamics and angles, some of which we are unable to prepare for. Although our warranty is not transferable to the phone itself, our friendly Otters would still love to get you into a brand-new OtterBox, since your current one might be compromised as well. Please don't hesitate to call them at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll get a warranty claim started for you right away!

      Sincerely,
      OtterBox Customer Service Team otterbox

      Dear Sharon,

      While it's awesome to see that your Galaxy Note 9 feels invincible in this Symmetry series, we apologize that the side switches are acting a little stiff! Not to worry - after a brief break-in period, the buttons should start to relax and move more comfortably. You'll be enjoying seamless security before you know it! If you have any other questions, feel free to contact our friendly Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll be happy to chat!

      Hi Reviewer,

      We're so happy to hear that your lady loves the Galaxy Note 9 Symmetry series!

As long as your device isn't looking scratched, then we're going to go ahead and call this a win! Let's get your protection back to peak levels with a warranty claim - simply call our friendly Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll send you a resistant new replacement right away!

      Hi tazy,

      Sorry to hear that your Symmetry series seems a bit 'fingerprinty!' We always recommend using a trusty microfiber cloth to wipe away any smudges on the case, but if this isn't doing the trick, our friendly Otters will be happy to further assist you with this. Feel free to give them a call at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll gladly provide some tips and tricks of the trade!

      Nevertheless, if you're looking for a case that adds traction, so to speak, we would suggest our Defender Series Pro. This product sports an outer rubber slipcover, which offers extra grip. Feel free to take a peek via the link below, and reach out to us if you run into any other questions!
