These new covers for the IPhone X’s Max is rediculas in saying that it’s great for saving a phone. It has no front coverage and expects you to also purchase a glass for the front... After years of great products, this is the worst!!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It’s very protective of the screen display when I place the iPhone in the case it completely covers the screen so I can only see and touch the back of the iPhone. Each time, I have to remove the iPhone from the case to access the screen to make calls etc. I think the design could of been better thought through.
I have used Otterbox ever since I bought my first iPhone. I always bought the Defender series, because I liked the built-in screen protection. Now that is no longer available, so I chose the Symmetry with the add-on alpha glass.
The alpha glass is okay, although I still wish it was built-in.
The case, on the other hand, is lousy. It doesn't feel "good" in my hands. It's heavy and some of the buttons are too sensitive; I hit them accidentally all the time.
I have switched back to using an Apple case I bought, and left the Alpha glass in place. The case probably doesn't protect my phone as well, but it feels good, it's light, and the buttons behave better.
I am VERY disappointed in this purchase. I will think at least twice before trying Otterbox again.

Hey Dan58Mo,
We sincerely apologize that you're feeling so let down by the iPhone Xs Max Symmetry series! We do our absolute best to streamline our case designs as much as possible, but at a certain point, we just can’t bring ourselves to sacrifice any more protective layers.
As for the buttons, we have to admit that we're a little surprised that they seem to be too responsive. This isn't necessarily typical of the product, and if you'd like us to take a closer look, our Otter detectives are all over this case (pun intended). Please feel free to give them a call at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll launch an investigation right away!
I bought this nearly a month ago, but for some reason it keeps on slipped by itself from car phone holder(magnetic one). Tried with another phone holder too, but still same. I missed the free case for this one, as I can't afford my phone to get broke just because of cover.
