After previously launching a number of protective case accessories that emphasized drop protection, Otterbox has actually been adjusting its product development direction. In addition to continuously evolving its protective case accessories from the past bulky and unsightly image to incorporate elements such as slim and stylish design, the recently announced Universe series adopts a modular component design, allowing users to expand the functions of the iPhone through the protective case, such as directly using the Square mobile card reader, corresponding to the Olloclip 4-in-1 external lens set, or the SanDisk iXpand flash drive and other partner peripheral accessories.
According to Otterbox, the new Universe series of protective cases will feature a modular design that allows the iPhone to easily connect to various peripheral accessories, eliminating the need to disassemble the case before installation. Otterbox's primary goal with this design is to leverage its protective case accessories to create opportunities for iPhone-related peripheral sales.
Through the card slot design on the back of the protective case, users can use the peripheral accessories of this collaboration with Otterbox, such as the Square card reader, Olloclip 4-in-1 external lens set, PolarPro BeatPulsar speaker, PolarPro tripod accessories or external mobile power bank. Even the newly launched new SanDisk iXpand has exclusive accessory specifications, and the external thermal imager previously designed by Seek for iPhone is also compatible with this series of protective cases.
目前Universe系列保護殼配件分別對應iPhone 6、iPhone 6s系列，並且提供4.7吋或5.5吋兩種規格，配色部分則分別為提供黑色或白色款式，建議售價則分別為49.95美元與59.95美元。而與Universe系列保護殼配件合作配件部分，依照配件類型不同將介於29.99美元至299.99美元區間。
