New styles available for iPhone 13, 14, 15, and 16 models as consumers hold onto their phones longer

FORT COLLINS, Colo., Aug. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As more consumers choose to extend the life of their smartphones, OtterBox is meeting the moment with its Fall 2026 collection—featuring fresh case designs not only for the latest iPhone 16 models, but for trusted favorites like the iPhone 15, 14 and 13.

A recent device upgrade survey conducted by OtterBox revealed that nearly half of respondents (49%) are delaying phone upgrades due to rising costs and economic uncertainty. Among iPhone users who've had their device for less than a year, 50% reported purchasing an earlier-generation model. With this shift in consumer behavior, the importance of a reliable, stylish phone case has never been greater.

"People are making smart, intentional choices with their tech," said OtterBox CEO Trey Northrup. "Whether it's holding onto a device longer or upgrading to a previous-gen model, our new color and style options are designed to protect what still works—while giving it a fresh look."

Survey data also shows that 84% of respondents feel that changing their phone case makes their device feel brand new again, and 55% say protection becomes even more important as their phone ages. The new color and design options from OtterBox deliver on both fronts—refreshing the look of your device while providing trusted protection. New styles include:

• Symmetry Series Clear with MagSafe is OtterBox's slimmest case yet—offering three times the drop protection of military standard (MIL-STD-810G 516.6). This season's collection introduces fresh designs with metallic accents, including gold foiling and opalescent finishes featured in Floral Romance and Opal Prism.
• Symmetry Series Cactus Leather Embroidery blends sustainable craftsmanship with bold embroidered designs on a plant-based leather alternative made from organic nopal cacti. New designs include the Enchanted Garden case, fusing vibrant floral embroidery with the luxurious feel of cactus leather for a fresh, nature-inspired look.
• New colorways and designs are also available in the Commuter Series, Defender Pro Series and Defender Pro XT Series including the new Offgrid case, featuring topographic artwork for an adventure-inspired look. These updates bring fresh style to the brand's most rugged and reliable cases.

Whether you're upgrading to the latest model or sticking with a favorite, OtterBox has you covered with cases that combine elevated style, everyday functionality and superior protection. These designs are available now for select devices at OtterBox.com, with more products coming this fall/winter.

Complete your setup with OtterBox screen protection and mobile charging accessories—designed to keep your device powered and protected wherever life takes you.
