Lifeproof ram mount

I got my lifeproof mounted on my kayak with a ram mount. Works great for listening to music, or lets talk hookup on the weekends. Easy to change channels too!

Oh shit Gangnam Style!!!!!:luxhello:

Get back to work Frank!!!!

no leash, or even a float on your phone Tony, your going to Jorge that phone if you keep it up!

BTW that's the biggest Fuggin sand dab I have ever seen.

Thanks for the review. I'm waiting for the iPhone 5 to come out and since the dimensions are different I'll have to use my Aquapak case that I use for my BB. until they make one for the 5. Or I may stay with my Aquapak, since it was only half of what the lifeproof retails for and has never failed me yet.

Sometimes I really like cell phones, and change it often.Last year i got a LG Chocolate one, but at my angry moment i throw it away, so it died! And this year i bought this kind of cell phone with cheap price, but i am afraid of his fate then. I hate the noises of irrelevant calls,you know sometimes i just want to be alone, that is enough, anyone knows how can i do? I have got a cell phone jammer in Google, but I heve no idea of it, ask some profession for help!

I am on my third case in just over a year. The cases keeps tearing and falling apart with what i would call very normal use. Great customer service (they have sent me two new cases free of charge and say this is my last replacement), but not exactly what I would call LifeProof.

Has anyone tried the new OtterBox Armor Series? Steep in price, but may be worth the investment?

Details:
iPhone 5 Armor Series, $99.95
The OtterBox iPhone 5 Armor Series case is a reinvention of an OtterBox classic that brings protection against water, drops, dust and crushing force. Metal latches, o-ring seal, port covers and mesh coverings keep water out and allow the Armor Series case for iPhone 5 to be completely waterproof. This case was made with confidence. We encourage you to use it with some.

Good to know. Mine peeled all the rubber lip off the lens. I still keep it in my trunks when surf fishing.
I'll see if they'll replace it.

$80? holly chit bat man.

My lifeproof case is still holding up well, I did get a spectra burn on the top of it caused by a BSB a couple of weeks ago....that sucked but the case is still intact and still lifeproof!

Otterbox Armor Waterproof Case VS LifeProof

I have been looking at these two cases (LifeProof & the new Otterbox iPhone Armor Waterproof Series) as contenders. Problem is that so far I have yet to find the Otterbox case so I can physically look at it to check it out... it was only released for sale last Friday (2/22) and supposedly AT&T will be the only retailer initially selling these via retail. I went to my local AT&T store and they were clueless, didn't even know about it or its release last Friday... great. LifeProof looks like a pretty good option but I've read a lot of reviews where users were complaining about the audio being muffled... people hearing you speak, and/or hearing what's coming through the phone. In addition, I'm hearing some complaints here on this thread as well about longevity and tearing and whatnot... hmmm... what to do, what to do...

Sure would like to see the new Otterbox up close before making a commitment... anyone know more info about these?

Thanks,

- Ken
