    One of the best cases to protect your cell but does not last with constant use. Will not last the 12 months and good luck trying to get lifeproof to honor lifetime warranty.

    I like that this case covers all parts of the phone including the home button and still allows for use of touch id. I was not happy to discover that I could not access the keypad during a call because it does not work well if you have an existing screen protector under the case. I purchased the case and a glass screen protector at the same time. I would have appreciated the salesperson telling me that this case may not work well with another screen protector in place. I bought an Otterbox defender which does work with the glass screen protector so I am no longer using this case.

      Hi Alise,

      We are sorry for any misunderstanding with this FRE case. True, we do not recommend using an additional adhesive screen protector with the FRE case as it comes with a built in screen protector and having both may cause touchscreen sensitivity issues. If you ever have any LifeProof questions please feel free to give us a call at 1-855-419-7418.

    I liked this case however for the price-point it seems like it should be better made. I ended up returning it and going with one of the slimmer OtterBox cases as their build is much, much better.

    The case isn’t bad but fter A month it fell when taking it out of my pocket. The door to the charging port broke. They did replace it for me but that was not such a big fall.

      Hi Frank,

      We're sorry to see that you're feeling slightly disappointed in this FRĒ series! Our cases are not deliberately designed to be indestructible so much as they are intended to absorb the brunt of any impacts that might otherwise damage your device. So as long as your iPhone is still doing okay, that's still a win in our books! We're glad that you already have a replacement headed your way, and if you have any other questions, feel free to give us a call at 1-888-533-0735. We're always happy to chat!

    Good product but Lifeproof denied warranty

    If you do not buy Lifeproof from Verizon you do not get the 1 year Total Waterproof protection to replace your damaged phone which is ironic since that is the selling point of the product. I wished I had known that before buying at Bestbuy. Lifeproof customer service had no sympathy when I inquired about the TWP warranty after my purchase & was actually quite rude. Why can't Lifeproof reveal that on the outside label of the box instead of inside the box in the fine print after the purchase? Realize what you are getting into before your purchase!

    Leaks

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We bought two Lifeproof Fre cases, one for each kid. We tested the case in water before putting it on the phone and found no leaks. About two weeks later, the phone case allowed water throigh the top of the case and the phone was damaged. Lifeproof will send you a replacement case for a fee. Of course, the phone is already damaged at this point. Thankfully, we were able to get a refund at Best Buy. The other case is doing fine. Oh, also difficult to get the case on without ending up with rainbowing on the screen.

    Not sturdy enough to be called 'Lifeproof'

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is actually the 3rd 'Lifeproof' case that I have purchased for my iPhones. I only bought this case as it was on sale. These cases are NOT 'Lifeproof', far from it. The last case cracked and the protective screen cover peeled off, and I NEVER dropped the case or got it wet. This case was not even a year old The warranty is basically nonexistent. I will never pay full price for this product. There are better cases out there.

    the overall case just feels cheap. the front plastic though is awful, there is a clear gap between the screen and the plastic causing we to have to double tap sometimes. it tends to stick. it also looks like it lowers the screen image because of the bad front. i do not like it at all.

      Hi there,

      We are sorry that the screen protector on this FRE case is hindering your touchscreen experience. Although this is not at all typical we can certainly understand why this would be disappointing. If you give us a call at 1-855-419-7418, we will be more than happy to get a warranty replacement lined up for you!

      Hi, Savyshopper!

      We're bummed to hear about the damage to your husband's FRĒ case. The good news is, we have a great warranty, so we'd be happy to get that torn case replaced. Give us a call at 1-888-533-0735, and we can get that case replaced with one that's a little more put together.

      Happy Holidays,

    Purchased this case after owning a lifeproof case in the past. I've had it for a little over a month. I took it with me when I was sitting in low water and when I looked at my phone the case had water in it and my IPhone was wet. The case was completely closed, so it really made me upset to see that it was a wasted $80. Luckily my phone dried up, but now I can't take videos or photos around water. Very disappointed.
