I’ve had this case for a few days now. I love the feel of it! I love that the built in pop socket flattens flush with the rest of the case. The flap over the lightening port is VERY hard to open, but I expect that to improve with use, and I would rather it be hard to open than hard to close!
I had bought a different otter box before this and dropped it twice. Both times the protective glass shattered. This time I bought the defender again and will do so in the future. Also, love the pop socket. I also bought one for my husband for Christmas. We hove love them. Only downside is putting the cases on.
The pop socket doesn't work, pull it out and it tips over.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hey, Trevor!
We're sorry to hear about your frustration with your Otter + Pop Symmetry Series case! We usually suggest pulling the PopTop all the way out, then pushing down one side. This allows you to use the side that's still popped out as the stand for your phone. If you continue to have issues with your case, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at 1-855-688-7269, and we'd be more than happy to get you taken care of.
Very pretty color, and looks to be durable. My only issue is that with the popsocket, which gives a slight bump on the back, my phone can no longer be held by my car mount, or wirelessly charge. I have to remove the popsocket to do that. However,the added popsocket is still a big plus, not to mention the gorgeous dark pink!
This is the 6th OtterBox I've purchased for the 6th phone. OtterBoxes out live the phone. I'm a very active person and require maxium protection. OtterBox provides that level of protection.
The screen protector fits very tightly so it is very responsive, almost feels like I am working right off the screen. The pop up thing in the back is a little dorky, but very handy. Only thing I don't love is that the pop up doesn't allow the phone to lay flat so it gets wobbly if I am using the calculator. Very sturdy case- I need it because I am constantly dropping it. I work in healthcare and I am also constantly wiping it clean. The slight grip of the outside case is nice, keeps phone from sliding around when propped up on something.
