No protection at all!
on July 31, 2014
Posted by: DMSW
I cracked my screen early in the summer. After replacing, I decided to buy an OtteBox to prevent it from happening again. A couple of weeks after putting the case on, I dropped it on my laminate kitchen floor and MY SCREEN CRACKED. So disappointed in OtterBox.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have had the Defender Series case for about two years and was looking for something a little slimmer that offers good protection. Love the case. Just wish it came with the glass protector case attached like the Defender case does.
Pros: High quality, Durable
I would recommend this to a friend!

I knew that Otterbox offered great cases to protect your mobile phones from cracked screens, dented corners, and a bunch of other accidental mishaps. I just never liked how the original Otterbox cases made your phone resemble a brick. How was I going to fit this in my pocket or purse? Dare I bare my naked cell phone to be able to fit it into my evening clutch?!?! So I stayed away from Otterbox and bought other cases that were cute but offered little protection.
I have used the Symmetry cover for the past month and I am impressed. It still offers that Otterbox protection without all of the clunkiness. I have the Brazil cover which is an amazing colorful design. I have had people attracted to the colors and pattern and when I tell them it's Otterbox they stare in disbelief. I KnOw! I say. Who knew we didn't have to sacrifice protection with style AND pocket space :)
Pros: Durable
I would recommend this to a friend!

I purchased this cover in Dreamy Pink for my iPhone 5s. It was very easy to put on and fit perfectly. All of the openings are positioned exactly where they should be. The case does not interfere with the operation of the phone. I am especially pleased that it is not bulky at all. Love the color...shades of pinks and purples in a triangular pattern. Very pretty!
Pros: High quality, Durable, not bulky, attractive
Cons: a little expensive
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have received so many compliments on my Brazilian Pop case -- no one can believe that it is an OtterBox! You guys have hit it out of the park with this one!
Pros: High quality

I switched from the Defender series and it was the best decision! I love this case. It is durable, beautiful, and sleek. The defender provided great protection but I was always getting moisture in the thumb hole. Also the defender screen protecter is a nuisance in my opinion. Unless you are storing you phone somewhere it is going to have some high pressure scratching the screen protection isn't necessary. Apple uses windshield grade glass, or so I have been told. The defender just becomes scratched and blurry because the screen protection is weaker than the actual screen. I am a mom of 2 little kids and this fits the bill!
Pros: High quality, Durable, stylish
I would recommend this to a friend!

Product Looks Dirty Easily

Otterbox is a great product and it protects my phone, no question about that. However, I purchased the teal/rose color and I have not been happy with that part of my purchase. The teal front gets incredibly dirty and you cannot clean it. I should have stuck with the black instead of branching out into a new fun color. I've tried cleaning it and nothing has worked, it constantly looks dirty.
Pros: Durable
Cons: looks dirty
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I had an otter box before which was amazing but a little bulky and boring looking. Love this version!!! really slimline but has protected my phone really well as I constantly drop it getting out of the car! I have also gotten lots of compliments about the design. Can't recommend this enough!! Really easy to put on and take off too.
Pros: High quality, Durable, really pretty
I would recommend this to a friend!
