I bought this case a year ago because it wasn’t as bulky as the other cases. Over this year, I have dropped it several times and my phone has been well protected. This last time, my toddler dropped it on to the concrete by accident. The case cracked on the top corner and my phone was intact. A phone case is a lot easier to replace than the phone in my opinion. Needless to say I have purchased a second to protect my phone :)
I love the new features of the iPhones that showed the classy colors, but was always disappointed that Ottebox didn't make cases that allowed people to show off the colors of their phones. Until now. I love how I can show off my phone with the added safety and security that comes from Otterbox. This case is still slim and not bulky like some of the other cases, but adds some extra protection from the inevitable slips and falls that are bound to happen. Many other fashionable see-through cases don't have the raised edges that protect the screen from falls like Otterbox. I have always been an Otterbox user and always felt my phone was well protected in an Otterbox. Now I finally have a fashionable case that allows me to show off my new rose gold iPhone!
I particularly like the symmetry series cases for the streamlined design, but this one is way better in quality. The case I had for my iPhone 6 was made of a more flimsy plastic that eventually lost its elasticity around the volume buttons and by the charge port. This particular case is made of a less flexible plastic that I'm certain won't sag like the other case I previously owned.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Pretty Polka Dots
on March 22, 2017
Posted by: Suzy
I own more phone cases than I care to admit and I'm a big fan of Otterbox Symmetry (I have several). I wanted to review this case because it is actually much prettier in person than it is in the pictures. The darker pink dots toward the bottom are not a purple/mauve color; they are just a medium shade of pink. And each pink polka dot has a pretty light rose gold colored shadow behind it that you can't see in the photos. This case is perfect for a rose gold phone. I don't know how this will hold up to scratching on the back, but it's quite pretty. It has sort of a Kate Spade look with Otterbox protection. Very nice.
Buttons are two stiff because they don't match up completely with iPhone 8. Searched several products and Otterbox was the best but not perfect. Will a iPhone 8 specific case come out soon?
I bought the "Drive Me Daisy" design because I liked it. After I received it, I wasn't quite as happy. Online it is shown on a black phone, I think it looks better on the black than on my silver one. At first, I thought I would just keep it, but I just found another Symmetry design I like better. So I think I will get the other one.
Not a huge fan of this case. It's flimsy compared to other symmetry cases I own. Wish I could return it but I already tossed the packaging.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
