Nice case

Otterbox pretty well nailed it on this case for me! I really like the slimness of the case, and the molded hard outer shell and softer liner, just the right level of protection for me. Works quite well with the tempered glass screen cover that I have on my phone. If I have one complaint, it is that the screen/lock button is more difficult to press than I would like, but not as bad as some I have seen. It's a winner for me.
This case was exactly what I was looking for. I was looking for a case that was thin, yet sturdy and easy to take off when needed and this case delivered! My phone is very well protected without being a big bulky case and I don't need iron figures to take my case out, which for me is a big plus! Great product!! Keep up the good work Outter box!
I really like my case. It has the slim design I wanted, but I feel like it offers my phone protection. (Although I haven't actually dropped it yet, so I can't say how well it would protect it.) I read other reviews complaining about how slippery the case is. I see the point it would be nice if the back had a bit more rubbery texture, but overall I would not say this phone is as slippery as some made it out to be. It doesn't just slide across the table or anything, and I don't feel like it's going to slide out of my hand. Overall, this case is great and just what I was looking for!
The case does not fit snug. I have tried over and over to re insert it and the left side where the volume control is not tight. The down volume does not work at all. I can not turn the volume down with the case on it.
Great case. Thin enough to look good yet protects very well.
Pros: High quality, Durable
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Protection.

The symmetry case has a great feel to it, and has a substantial rim around the front to protect from a face planting phone.
I don't personally like screen protectors or portholes in the back of the phone (no one really needs to know that badly I have an iPhone) and this provides all around protection.
Just purchased our 3rd and 4th Otterbox cases with a gift certificate were won at a silent auction (YAY to Otterbox for supporting local, charitable events with a donation!). The first two served their purpose- the case was beat up, but the phone was/is perfectly fine! Loving the colors of my new one and my husband enjoys the slenderness of the Symmetry. I had to use customer service (for an error on my part) and they were quick, helpful, and friendly.
