Aggregate ratings are more positive than negative overall, but a notable minority are low-rated, so buyer experiences are not uniformly favourable. The ratings do not explain the reasons behind those opinions. Consider the case’s listed dual-layer build and MagSafe features against your needs, and note that ratings do not verify the manufacturer’s protection claims.
