2m fall protection
According to our phone case expert
The OtterBox Symmetry Apple iPhone SE 2022 / SE 2020 / 8/ 7 Back Cover Black is a sturdy, yet slim case. The fall protection prevents damage in the event of a fall of up to 2m high. Still, the Otterbox Symmetry isn't as thick as other fall protection cases. It's a relatively thin and light case that easily fits in your bag or pocket. The extra sturdy edges also protect your touchscreen, because the edges are slightly higher than the screen. This prevents scratches when your device is placed on the table with the screen down or dropped. That edge runs all over the side and also prevents scratches on your buttons.

The tough, sturdy edges protect my phone well against bumps and drops. This keeps my device intact, even if I put my iPhone loose in my bag.
Thick, firm edges Because I always throw my device loose in my bag and it sometimes bumps into something, it is useful to have a sturdy case. That's why I chose the Otterbox Symmetry. The polycarbonate back and rubber edges combine to form a sturdy case. My smartphone is a bit thicker due to the sturdy edges, but I don't find it disturbing. In addition, the thick edges also protect my screen. In addition, my cameras are protected on the back by the raised edges around the camera island. With this case I can safely take my expensive iPhone out the door.
Tough material The material feels nice and feels good in the hand. Thanks to the rubber edges you have extra grip. The back, on the other hand, does feel smooth, which makes it glide faster over my desk. It is a fairly 'basic' case in appearance. This is what I like about this back cover: it is not too noticeable. The back still looks completely intact, even though I often put my case in my bag with my sharp keys. So I expect this case to stay as new for a long time.
Tight on your device The Otterbox Symmetry fits snugly around my iPhone. It fits nicely and my device doesn't just slip out of the case. It was therefore difficult to get my smartphone in the case. Fortunately, getting it out was a lot easier.
I tested this case on the iPhone 11, but the Otterbox Symmetry is the same for other types of devices.

The case does exactly what it's supposed to do: protect your phone, and do it well. I rented a scooter in Italy. I drove on the boulevard, sun, female on the back, sunglasses on, felt completely the man then boom .... I drove over a manhole cover and my brand new iPhone 7 bounces at 50 km / h from the dashboard tray on the red-hot asphalt. Braking, cursing, getting off, picking up....angel chanting...there it was, in all its beauty...my iPhone...completely intact, fully working. That's why you put such a thick case around that slender device.
