FAQs

What makes the cactus leather sustainable?

The cactus leather is made from nopal cactus that is organically grown and sustainably harvested without the need for irrigation. This plant-based material reduces reliance on traditional leather production and minimizes environmental impact.

How much drop protection does this case offer?

This Symmetry Series case is tested to resist up to 3 times as many drops as the military standard (MIL-STD-810G 516.6), which equates to surviving 78 individual drops from 4 feet (1.2 meters).

Is this case compatible with wireless charging?

Yes, the case is designed with built-in magnets that are perfectly aligned for MagSafe compatibility, ensuring faster and easier wireless charging and seamless attachment of MagSafe accessories.

How should I clean the cactus leather material?

Clean the cactus leather with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive moisture. Dry immediately with a soft, dry cloth if cleaning with a mild soap solution.

Does the case add significant bulk to the iPhone 16?

No, the Symmetry Series is designed with a sleek, thin profile. It aims to provide robust protection without adding unnecessary bulk, making it pocket-friendly and comfortable to hold.

What is the recycled content of this case?

The Symmetry Series Cactus Leather case contains a minimum of 50% recycled content, utilizing 100% recycled plastics in its construction.

Will this case protect my iPhone's camera and screen from scratches?

Yes, the case features raised edges around the screen and camera lens, providing a buffer against direct contact with surfaces when placed face down or screen up.

Troubleshooting

Case feels loose on the phone

Ensure all corners of the iPhone 16 are fully seated within the case. Re-align the phone and press firmly around the edges until a secure fit is achieved.

MagSafe accessories not attaching or charging properly

Remove the case and reattach it, ensuring it is aligned correctly. Check the MagSafe accessory for any debris or damage. Ensure no other metallic objects are between the case and the MagSafe charger.

Difficulty interacting with buttons or ports

Verify that no debris is caught in the button covers or port openings. Ensure the phone is correctly aligned within the case, as misalignment can sometimes affect button access.

Cactus leather surface appears stained or discolored

Gently wipe the affected area with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For more persistent stains, use a very mild soap solution on the cloth, wipe carefully, and then dry immediately with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
