OtterBox Announces Full Case Lineup for iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone X

FORT COLLINS, Colo., Sept. 12, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Apple revolutionized the smartphone industry 10 years ago with the original iPhone, and OtterBox has set the standard of protection from the very beginning by protecting every generation of iPhone. OtterBox, the No. 1-selling smartphone case in the U.S., continues to uphold that tradition with a full lineup of cases for iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and the revolutionary iPhone X.(1)

Since the very first iPhone hit the scene in 2007, OtterBox has protected every single Apple smartphone. Starting with Defender Series, OtterBox has innovated 26 different case styles for iPhone over the past decade. Case designs have evolved to be more sleek and to accommodate an ever-increasing number of features, but one thing has remained the same: trusted protection.

"OtterBox is proud to be the only case company that's protected every single iPhone," said OtterBox CEO Jim Parke. "While other products have come and gone, OtterBox has stood the tests of time and protected every single generation of iPhone, so you can count on us to keep iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X safe from the hazards that life throws your way."

Each iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X case design undergoes a minimum of 24 tests across more than 238 hours to earn the OtterBox Certified Drop+ Protection seal. These tests ensure lasting protection from drops, bumps, scratches and dings.

OtterBox offers a broad suite of cases, because iPhone users are as diverse and complex as their phone features. There's an OtterBox case for everyone:

    --  The fashionable Symmetry Series is sleek with a raised, beveled edge
        that provides extra protection for the touchscreen during facedown
        drops. Available in classic solids, trendy graphics, fully clear and
        clear graphics, it's the perfect fashion statement.
    --  Pursuit Series guards against drop, dust, dirt and snow intrusion,
        perfect for an outdoor adventure or average day in the office.(2) This
        two-piece case snaps around each device for a perfect fit. The open-face
        design seals directly to the display and the case includes an optional
        lanyard.
    --  Defender Series is the original protective case for iPhone with 10 years
        of design and development behind it. The rugged multi-layer case
        features a shell and outer slipcover to absorb and dissipate shock.
    --  Two form-fitting layers combine to create the thin, protective Commuter
        Series. The outer shell and inner slipcover combine to pull shock away
        from the device, and port covers keep debris out.
    --  Strada Series Folio offers a luxurious 100 percent genuine leather cover
        and trusted protection. The folio front clasps securely closed with a
        magnet to guard the display from scratches and includes a card slot.
    --  The uniVERSE Case System features a slim, protective OtterBox case with
        a modular rail mount on the back that allows attachment of a variety of
        accessories. OtterBox has partnered with other industry leaders to
        enhance uniVERSE with accessories like a contactless card reader,
        additional storage, bike mounts, tripods, wallets and more.
    --  Keep the touchscreen brilliant with Alpha Glass fortified screen guards.
        Compatible with Symmetry Series, Pursuit Series, Commuter Series, Strada
        Series Folio and uniVERSE Case System, these screen guards block out
        scratches and complete device protection.
