The Ultra-slim profile of Otterbox’s Symmetry Series means it does not take away from the sleek design of the iPhone 11, though it still offers some serious protection. It has drop protection and a raised screen bumper to help protect the screen. We like the blue fade on the colour ‘We’ll Call Blue’ but you can also get a clear and Stardust (or glitter) option.
