Using the Otterbox lineup for reference:

The Defender is a BRICK of a hybrid two-piece design (technically three-piece, two material).
The Commuter has a sleeker back while presenting fewer rubberized surfaces in what is still a hybrid two-piece design.
This Symmetry series comes just under the Commuter as it attempts to retain some of the benefits of the two-material design in a one-piece case.

That then makes this bulkier than many single-material case designs, but slimmer or as slim as any other two piece design (the Spigen NeoHybrid comes to mind).

Good luck!
Jon

LOVE the Otterbox Symmetry series. Pretty much all I use. Many drops, never a break. The texture is good from the get go, but it really breaks in nicely after a few months. Its the only case Ive found that is smooth textured(esp after break in) without EVER getting greasy/smudgy.

I got the commuter for $15 a month ago, really wish this deal was around then. This is the case I actually like and wanted but did not want to spend $40. Might still get it and then just try and resell the commuter.

i have it through work for my work phones. I like it. I had a spigen or ringke case before, but this one is not too bulky, is more sturdy, so I just decided to keep this case

Quote from The_Love_Spud :
I would definitely argue that the clear cases are a completely different animal from the other Symmetry lineup (given the different materials composition). I too have had mixed experience with the clear case Symmetry (with two of the same model/phone).

Otherwise, I would strongly recommend the Symmetry for anyone seeking a smoother out of pocket experience without compromising too much of the ruggedness of the bulkier Defender. Of course, I would qualify that recommendation by saying that I would only buy an Otterbox case from either Amazon (sold by/shipped by) or Otterbox directly.

This was an interesting deal for me until I saw that it was a 3rd party Amazon seller.

Good luck!
Jon

I never had any problems with my non-clear Symmetry cases. Loved the protection they offer and the easy in and out of jeans' pocket. I would have one now but they were $50 when I got my iPhone 12 Pro Max.

I never understood the appeal of these cases... Seem overpriced and insanely bulky to me. I've always bought <$10 cases from Amazon and have never broken a phone in 20+ years of owning a smartphone.

To give you an idea about the quality of an Otterbox case, last December I put my phone on the fender of my Jeep while changing the oil. Long story short, I forgot about it until after I had driven to my wife's office. Find My iPhone showed that it was on I10 a few mile from house. It had flown off my fender at 80 miles an hour in the far left lane and somehow ended up against a concrete barrier next to the right hand shoulder. I went to find it mainly just to see how bad of condition it was in. The phone was not cracked or even scratched. I have never had a phone break on me before and I bought the Defender case only because it was the best deal I could find on a case on Black Friday. I'm sold for life…

I typically use UAG cases. This one feels much better and gripper in my hand than my UAG Civilian. It's not bulky but offers good protection. I've dropped it countless times and no issues. The MagSafe is very strong as well if you choose to mount it with a MagSafe charger in your car, which is the main reason I decided to try this one. Highly recommended.

I had a Lenovo laptop in only a leather portfolio case. Put it on my roof as I put my suit jacket in that back seat. Drove off and forgot the laptop. Got on the highway and saw something black fly off my car. Realized what it was and slammed my brakes on. Backed up and picked it up off the highway. Zero damage other than tiny scratches on the corner of the front of the top of the laptop near the hinge. And that was only a thin leather portfolio style case.

For me the Symmetry hit the sweet spot of protection and slim design. The Defender is just way too much case IMO.

Defender has occasionally been literally too much: I've been using the same Samsung stand-up wireless charger for years and recall the ugly period where I had an S9 in a Defender case that actually put too much separation for reliable charging. However, the current Defender-clad Pixel 4 and Defender-clad S10e have no issues(!).

If you like the sweet spot of the Symmetry (and if you're not specifically seeking a clear option) the Commuter Lite might be another option for you to consider in the future. I'm really a bit unclear about the positioning Otterbox is creating around this case as it honestly just seems like a cost-reduced Commuter (or perhaps a Commuter for the "rest of us", i.e. - buyers of budget phones). At the same time, it manages to further slim down their two-layer option to bring it closer to the one-piece Symmetry series.

Good luck!
Jon

I have this case, it is literally the most uncomfortable case I have ever owned. I have seem symmetry cases on other iPhones, and they were much better feeling. The plastic is absurdly hard and the TPU border is also just very hard. I didn't think it was possible to make the mini feel uncomfortable in hand, but this dose. I wonder if it's a fake. The MagSafe magnets work well though.

Out of curiosity, what smartphone did you have back in 2001?
