LifeProof - Case for Apple® iPhone® 4 and 4S - Purple

I drop my phone alot and never know where it is going to land . This case has taken some hit to the pavement and Incan go swimming in the pool and I made some really cool videos with the family.

I was a little skeptical at first, but this performed amazingly during Warrior Dash race. Music was pumping the whole race, even when up to my neck in mud. Great product!

It's a good product, tough and very protective for my phone

this product was good, waterproof, durable but couldn't stand up to puppy teeth. i left my phone or case on the sofa for a few seconds and my pup made some good dents and pierced the screen. i was not able to return my product. also it does scratch easily.. but i liked it just that it was useless to me once my puppy pierced the case.

When l first opened the LifeProof packaging I was initially shocked because the case looked so delicate & fragile - but looks are deceiving & once l had snapped it into place it was as solid as a rock, whilst still being as light as a feather. My initial installation did not go well because the screen did not sit straight in the top right-hand corner. After contact with LifeProof they suggested l re-install the case & boy did correct installation make a big difference, my screen now sits perfect. I also removed the tiny piece of plastic added to the LifeProof home button area, for me the home button works better without it. My top tips for installation are:- * Clean your phone impeccably * Unscrew & remove the top bung from the front cover piece * Place your phone into the front cover & then visually inspect your screen front to make sure it is perfect before snapping the back cover on * Screw the bung back in The case looks great & feels very comfortable in my hand. My screen is now flat & l have no issues playing any of the hundreds of iPhone games that l have amassed. For me the best feature is that it is waterproof! I enjoy taking my LifeProofed phone into the shower every day & listening to TuneIn Radio, as well as playing games & tweeting on it. This case has really grown on me & l love it.

I tested my case as mentioned in the directions for leaks, and it worked perfectly. I was able to use my phone under water multiple times. I swam with it in the lake, filmed Tarpon at the dock under water in the Keys, swam with it offshore; however, on a swim in waist deep water at the beach a very small amount of moisture leaked into the case. The result was an iPhone that doesn't turn off, the front camera doesn't focus, and accelerated battery usage. The very small water droplets were able to bypass the membrane near the earpiece speaker. I did check the condition and security of the case before entering the water. Each water use was limited to no more than 5 feet. A quote from lifeproof.com ~ "LifeProof warranty does not, under any circumstance, cover the replacement or cost of any electronic device or personal property inside or outside of the case. " I write this review as a caution to you. The case will work as advertised a majority of the time, but I would be careful in using it as a primary underwater camera like I did. I should have used my cheap Fuji for that. Good luck.

I originally had purchased the other "top brand" case but promptly returned it once I found the Lifeproof at Best Buy. The other case was too bulky and offered little or no protection to the speakers/mic/cameras. Lifeproof took care of those issues for me, plus it provides usage that no other case can. I don't have to concern myself about the status of my phone when I go to the beach or worry when I get caught in a rainstorm. No similar issues as mentioned in the earlier posts. If you watch the install and care videos then you shouldn't have a problem. This is the single best investment I have ever made for a product. I am overly satisfied with the level of protection it gives to my iPhone and thoroughly enjoy the comfort and peace of mind that goes with it. Check out their website, watch the videos, look on YouTube, read the reviews, and see for yourself. I did and I'm happy with the results!

Overall I am satisfied with the case. I'd give it 4.5 stars if I were allowed to do so. It's functional, has been very waterproof. I work in and around water a lot, so hey, I hesitantly gave it a true dunk test for fun. :) I am someone who likes technology, but am not willing to always by the newest thing on the market just because it's new. I have an Iphone 4S. It works and I like it, but my previous case bit the dust...it is very hard to find a case now for the 4S. This was the last one on the shelf at my store. I wish it was a little more stylish, I work in what tends to be a masculine job...so I usually tend to go a little more girly on stuff like this. Maybe years ago they had it, but this was the only one in 5 different stores so I couldn't be too picky. It appears they have done a good job at improving on what other people were intially having issues with...having to press really hard to get the phone to recognize the command. I have not found that to be an issue. I have really only two complaints. One is I have a really hard time hearing my phone ring while it is in my purse as it seems to affect the speaker volume (in general both ring volume and with soft talkers). I never had that issue with my previous case. The second is a relative complaint, I found the cost of the case to be rediculous! I only bought it becuase after going to 5 different stores, this was the only case on the shelf for a 4S. Since I am around water a lot and my other case was not "waterproof" and was broken, since I have no plans on replacing my phone any time soon and since I was unable to find any other 4S cases in 5 different stores...I bought it. Seriously, I got a deal on my phone when I got it, so I spent more on this case than I did the phone...Crazy!!
