    Wanted to Love This Case

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I really wanted to love this case, as I'm a big Star Wars fan (I got the full Vader case, not the smaller helmet one). Unfortunately, this case developed a lot of little white scratch marks, usually in the four corners of the case in just a few days (see below photos). Other than that, it's a solid case that does protect quite well, but has a bit of a price premium due to the Star Wars images on it.

      Hey jediknight,

      Sorry to hear that this Darth Vader Symmetry series seems to have a little bit of light shining through the dark! While these cosmetic complications shouldn't necessarily affect the powers of the force, we certainly understand Vader's dedication to the dark side, and our Otter Stormtroopers would love to assist with a warranty claim. Please feel free to give them a call at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll send you a sleek new replacement with speed and agility!

      Cheers,

    Protection But Not Scratch Resistant

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I wanted a clear case for my iPhone XR so the color would shine through. It is good in that regard and seems like it will provide good protection if I drop the phone. (I have not dropped it yet. I also put a screen protector on the phone.) My main complaint is that almost immediately, small hairline scratches appeared on this case although it is supposed to be scratch-resistant. Unlike some other reviewers, I was able to put the case on the phone without much difficulty but even minimal handling caused very faint scratches on the case.

Just give them a call at 1-855-688-7269, and after a few finishing touches, you'll have a shiny new warranty replacement headed your way!

    Pretty But Has Room to Improve

    I bought this case based on the Otterbox reputation and pretty design. It protected my phone well, but I ultimately replaced it after about a year when the bottom split. It fits very snugly and was difficult to put on and take off, to the point that I felt like I might break my phone. It also leached color from my jeans pocket over time and was permanently a grayish blue, no matter how much I tried to clean it, which really detracted from the pretty clear casing.

    Purchased for my wife and it's been a great case in regards to protection. However, after only a few months the case turned yellow on half of it. The other half is still clear. It's gross! Contacted OtterBox and they wanted us to pay to ship the old one back instead of sending a new one and shipping the defective one back.

    I absolutely love this brand and will always purchase, it’s protection is superior. But, when it comes to clear color phone covers I’m done. Only the front edges turned yellow but it’s still noticeable. It’s a cute case so I wish this didn’t happen. I’ll look out next time when buying clear for ones that specifically say will not discolor

    I like this phone case because it is protective when you drop We are phone. The drawback with this phone cases it appears to be very slippery and it slides off from the car seat my lap many times, Which in turn can lead to your phone hitting hard surface ground.

    It's a bit bulky and a bit more slick than I would like. It sometimes feels like it can slip out of my hand, although it hasn't yet. That being said it seems very durable and seems very good at absorbing shocks.

    I don’t honestly trust this case to truly protect the larger cell phone screens these days. My wife actually dropped hers and it did break the 1 week old ZAGG invisishield screen glass cover than we had to buy separately. There isn’t any rubber bumper pads inside the edges of the case as you used to see. The case itself is a very solid plastic actually. Tough I’m sure but as far as shock absorption it’s not. It transfers it pretty directly in my opinion. Also very little protection of the front screen side. It’s not raised above the phone glass much at all. $1000 phones need better than this. I’m looking into a different case now as I don’t trust it and having to deal with zagg for replacement screen protector we paid $35 for.

      We're so sorry this Symmetry Series case emerged from your purse with some battle scars!

      This case wasn't actually designed to be indestructible as much as it was intended to absorb all scratches and impacts that would compromise your iPhone otherwise. As long as your display survived all scratches unscathed, we'll still call it a win and skip straight to the part where we help you get a brand-new case. Simply give us a call at 1-855-688-7269 and we'll get you back on track to seamless, crystal-clear security!

    I bought an iPhone 11 and wanted a protective case for it. The sales rep gave me the choice of a clear or black Otterbox case. I selected the black case. The sales rep placed my new phone into the case. When I got home and started to play with this iPhone, I noticed something was wrong with the camera. I then realized the rep sold me a case for a XR phone. Thank you Best Buy.
