I love this case! The sparkles are just the perfect amount where it glitters in the sun and is pretty, but its not overwhelming or unprofessional looking. I was skeptical about the reviews of it yellowing or getting dirty - the jury is still out since I've only had it a couple weeks. I feel that the yellowing is inevitable, but if it takes a while before it happens, then it's worth it. I haven't dropped my phone yet (*knock on wood*) but it feels very protective and I feel good about it being safe. The on/off button is a little bit difficult to push, but not a deal breaker for me. Overall, I would definitely recommend it and would buy again (again - pending the discoloration question)
I have (as is usual for me) dropped my new iPhone 8 several times in the few weeks I’ve had it. It is perfectly fine - completely undamaged. I added Aloha Glass screen protector too.
I bought this a month ago but a couple days later I noticed a long scratch on the case but I never dropped it. I’m assuming I got it from sliding on a table? Not sure, just thought the case would be more durable and less sensitive to scratches. Otherwise it is nice, looks sturdy, and very pretty, but maybe too expensive for something that gets easily scratched.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi greymoose,
Yikes! Sounds like your Symmetry just couldn't resist scratching an itch, and we apologize! We definitely want you to have a case that's both extremely protective and stylish. Not to worry - our smooth Otters will be thrilled to process a warranty claim. Just ring them up at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll send out a new, resilient case that should protect your iPhone for a long time going forward!
This case looks really nice. I haven't dropped my phone yet but I am assuming that I'll get the same fantastic Otterbox protection that I got from my old Otterbox cases. I also like that I can easily slip my phone into a pocket. With my older, bulkier Otterbox cases this was more difficult.
The phone case itself is great but it is sharp against my ear so I can only use it to speak on speakerphone.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

been using the symmetry clear case for an iphone8 and so far no complaints; dropped it glass face down from pocket to wooden floor and it was spotless, hopefully it keeps up!
