iPhone Case?

[AirborneYak]

I've been wanting to do this, but I'm not sure how it will work in saltwater.

Optrix case.
I've been down ~15 feet taking video with it. No problem. More expensive than Lifeproof, but more shock resistance and depth capability. And you can get several accessories for it, should you choose.

I thought about doing this before I purchased my Lifeproof case but decided against it. My main reason for this is due to the fact that once you replace a damaged or lost phone you will have to send it to get it coated, that's an additional $60 on top of the $60 that you already paid which does not include the $100 that you'll be paying to have your phone replaced.................that is if you have insurance on your phone.

Waterproof is one thing, but if you drop it over the side of the yak, you better have it teathered or give it the ability to float. Just my two pennies. The fingerprint scanner doesn't work well with the case, but who needs fingerprint recognition anyway.

This isn’t the first time I’ve heard of Lifeproof owners having issues with the rubber buttons. Personally, I’ve never had that issue and I keep my phone in front pocket when it’s not in use or while I’m driving. The first case that I bought was exchanged due to a small crack right near the headphone plug, I’m guessing it must have cracked while I was opening/removing the case to clean it. As far as everything else goes, I haven’t have the rubber plug for the headphones or the little door that you have to crack open to charge the phone.

I agree with you about getting it coated every time you replace a phone. Itll get pricey especially if you're a cluts like me. I just don't like something so bulky in my pocket and this is why my phone is usually case less. I'll be doing the liquipel treatment in the near future. I'll you guys know how it works out.

I use one of those snack-sized double-seal ziplock bags, and leave a little extra air before sealing it up. A tiny bit of air inside a sealed container provides much more buoyancy than you think.

The phone still fits inside the PFD pockets, and is 100% waterproof even if you capsize in the surf at La Jolla and you/waders/PFD/everything gets soaked... don't ask how I know. I use a separate bag for my car keys/keyfob so they don't scratch up my phone.

It's cheap, and all the speakers/ports/gaps are protected. The touch-screen and speakers still work, at least it does with my MotoX, so you can listen to tunes while you're out on the water - just not with earbuds.

Ive had 4 life proof cases and every time the rubber around the volume control wears out and leaks! Be care fule and always test it before submersion.

i highly recommend this one!

I've got a hardly used lifeproof case for a iphone 4 if anyone wants to buy it.

Another thing that's worth mentioning is that there are a lot of counterfeit lifeproof cases out there that are even sold on amazon. You can usually tell when it costs $20 or $40 bucks. Yes it's too good to be true. The counterfeit ones have a lot of problems, and you will likely end up damaging your phone. Genuine lifeproof cases are around $80 bucks, usually bought from bestbuy or directly from lifeproof.

Or from chxh8me for $30, who bought his directly from Lifeproof at the Fred Hall show 2 years ago, used it for a couple months, then bought an iphone 5 and no longer needed it, upon which it has been sitting in a drawer for over a year.
