Has anyone tried the new otterbox lumen series from the Apple Store ? I’m curious if it’s nice and strong around the cut outs and buttons this year …. Only seen one video so far and it looks night and tight when they put it on , but they don’t give much details about the case … hope Tee gets to revive this one

If you want cheap, genuine apple silicone then use this AliExpress store. Got mine today and I’m pretty sure their genuine.

They look good but pretty sure they’ll still be fakes.

The text on the inside of the case doesn’t look right.

yep true. there is a less chance of them being genuine and more chance of it being fakes/factory off due to imperfections.

That looks amazing.

Can you snap some pics of the front? Does it add much bulk? How’s the grip?
The grip is real good and not much bulk at all. This is one of the best Symmetry cases Otterbox has made in a long time. I like it. Here is a pic of the front where you can see the little bit of sag by the charge port area.

why did you not like sheath or synthesis out of curiosity?

I thought flex = rebel?
I really like she Sheath. I just like the Phone Rebel better. The phone seems better protected while not feeling much bigger (if at all) than the Sheath. On top of that the Phone Rebel came with a glass screen protector (I hadn’t gotten one yet) and the ability to customize buttons, for about the same amount of money as the Sheath. So better protection and better value.

I really liked the Flex as well. My only knock against it is when using it as a phone it wasn’t as comfortable to me as the Rebel. With everything else the two were equal or I liked the Flex a little more.
14PM - Sheath or Synthesis?
I like both. Maybe I didn’t give the Synthesis a fair shot since I got it at the same time as the Phone Rebel products. But for me having the same grip across the whole phone with the Sheath was great. The Synthesis’ texture across the case isn’t as aggressive as the Sheath except for the side grips. For those areas the phone felt slick to me and my typically dry hands.

If the Synthesis had a texture closer to the Sheath across the case, PLUS the side grips that would be a winner for me.

I love the pink cases as well, but this lilac looks amazing with the DP phone, even more so in person.

I love the lilac colour…but I haven’t bought a silicone case in years after I had the white one with constant lint.

I have the silver and I think the lilac would look good on it as well! Will keep it on my radar if I decide on more than one case.

Btw LOVE your cat avatar. Is he/she yours? I have quite a few that look similar to that!
