FOX.INC (Head office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, President: Michinori Isohata, hereinafter referred to as FOX), an authorized distributor of OtterBox, the No.1 selling smartphone/tablet case brand in the United States (*1), would release “Symmetry + Series”. The “Symmetry+ Series” features antibacterial processing technology and comes with the “CASEPLAY CARE” screen crack compensation service.
The shockproof performance also meets the standards of the U.S. military standard (MIL-STD-810G-516.6 (*2)), so you can rest assured even if you drop it unexpectedly. In addition, “Symmetry+ Series” for iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro models comes with Japan’s original “Screen Crack Compensation Service”. Please use the glass included with the case. If the screen of the device itself is cracked due to an accidental drop or other impact during use, we will compensate for the cost of repairing the cracked screen. As many as 30% of people have experienced a cracked LCD screen (*3), and nearly half of those who have cracked the screen are still using the device with the cracked screen, and the high cost of repair is one of the reasons why people continue to use the device without repairing it. The “Cracked Screen Compensation Service” to be released this time is an unprecedented shockproof case that can provide users with safety and security, made possible by our absolute confidence in its shockproof performance.
OtterBox is the No. 1 selling brand of smartphone cases in the U.S. (*1), and its shockproof cases have undergone rigorous quality testing based on OtterBox’s accumulated technologies. OtterBox holds more than 300 patents for its cases and has conducted over 238 hours of rigorous durability testing on more than 24 items, including resistance to UV rays, high temperature, high humidity, and a wide range of usage conditions, including compatibility with chemicals found in cosmetics and hand creams. We have also confirmed that it does not affect the proximity sensor and various functions such as voice and communication that are installed in the protected smartphone.
1: Based on the NPD Group’s survey of the smartphone case category in the US from January 2017 to July 2020.
2: Tested by dropping all surfaces and corners onto concrete from a height of 2 meters.
3: Based on a survey conducted by Rakuten Research in March 2016.
