Overall, I really like this case. It feels like my battery life is doubled with the phone. My primary complaint is the charger. The case requires a micro USB, which is inconvenient for most people because it is less common than you're regular Apple USB charger. The charger does not lock into place well at all with the charger that comes with the case. Because of this issue, the phone may appear to be charging, but if you nudge it the wrong way, it stops charging! Many a time have I woken up to this phone not having charged the night before. Needless to say that is a struggle, but easily resolved if you find a higher quality one elsewhere. It is also more difficult to find a car charger for this case. Everything else is great. I love that I have about double the battery life so I don't have to worry as much about it dying at the wrong time! It's waterproof and sturdy, which is critical if you are outside a lot or you have a tendency to accidentally drop your phone. I would definitely recommend it! Hopefully the kinks are worked out soon with the charger and I'll consider this a 5-star product!

I love everything about this Life Proof case! This is the first time I have bought another case for my iPhone other than an Otter Box. I was been waiting for a protective case that is strong, has a screen cover, and a built in battery pack. I carry my phone in my pocket so I didn't want to carry an extra battery charger pack too. This case does it all and then you add in it's water proof too, I mean come on! Yeah it's costs a bit more than most cases but what you get in return if far greater than purchase price. You will also come across some reviews saying how they don't like the "clicking" sound when they tap in certain areas of the screen, don't worry about it. It's not that bad. I mean I hear it from time to time but it doesn't bother me. The screen protector has a slight gap in it because it floats just above the screen on your phone. The touch ID area works flawlessly too! Oh yeah, it will add a little weight to your phone because it's adding a battery pack the case, so be prepared but it's no big deal. It feels solid in your hand, unlike some cheaply made offerings. I'm about to go buy a second one for my wife's phone. Pick this up!!!

Having already been through the IP6 fre and nuud offerings (both of which I did not like and returned), I was set to move on from Lifeproof. Then, they come out with this bad boy!! Great case that offers all the protection I need! The built in battery is amazing, offering more than a full charge available at the push of a button. Unlike the nuud and regular fre cases, I have had no issues with sound quality/ distortion, or touch ID functions. My only gripes are the built in screen protector that occasionally experiences the rainbow effect (I stress occasionally) and the micro USB charging port as I wish they could have figured out how to make it a lightning port...but that is a personal preference. Solid 4 star review!

Truly is waterproof! All of the great protection a life proof provides with the added bonus if a phone charger. Only down side is how bulky and heavy it makes your iPhone but that's a small price to pay in order to get the charger.

It's durable but pretty heavy to me, charges great, at least 1 full charge from 0-100, possibly a little more. My only complaint is that you are required to have the life proof charger, the regular mini usb charger does not charge the case at all.

Now I only charge my phone at night and then use my power case after it runs down. No more charging throughout the day! Love the protection of the case but hate that it is harder to hear someone when talking on the phone. Still love the case though.

I didn't give this case 5 stars only because it's big and bulky and it couldn't fit in my pocket while at work. Of course, battery cases aren't supposed to be lightweight so if you don't have an issue with that then this is a great case to have. I must have charged up my phone 4 times during the day with this case so if you're constantly using up your battery life, you'll love this case.

I have now used three life proof cases. They all seem to be the best of the worst. Overall they have protected my phone well except with water. The thumb cover came off on every single one. I continue to use this case because of the battery pack. It's the most durable case with a battery pack. I have had multiple problems with charging and had to replace the phone because of water damage through the thumb cover missing and me not realizing. The benefit of the battery pack of this small with the drop protection is why I still use this case. If you decide to purchase always check to make sure you case is fully closed before walking through a creek or getting into water. A simple fix that has seem to work is a piece of tape over the thumb cover it seems to hold up the longest. I've used griffin tech and otter box, neither where any better and they didn't come with a battery pack. With battery pack is still equivalent in feel to a normal otter box case.

I was hesitant to spend the money on this case however since, I bit the bullet I haven't looked back! I have a little one and I'm constantly taking photos of her! Knowing I can take bath/pool/beach/lake photos without the risk of ruining my phone gives me peace of mind! Plus, the fact it has built in battery is nice since, I'm not always around and able to plug in my phone! But, I have battery at 2x now so I'm not stranded without phone access!

This has been the best investment. I listen to streaming music all day at work starting at 0600. It's now 8 pm and thanks to this case my phone is still at 85% I may have missed 2 hours of using my phone for streaming, but I have used it as a flashlight also today. Great for hunters also! I don't have to worry about my husband being without a phone to have access to calls and the GPS if he gets lost in the woods somewhere. A life saving investment!
The only con to this case is it uses a microUSB to charge instead of the one that came with my iPhone 6S, but you can leave the charger at home!

I absolutely love this case. I am a coach and I spend long hours away from home daily in a rugged and active environment. This case gives the assurance of max protection from accidental drops and water exposure AND much needed extra battery life. I used to choose between mophie pack and otter box but this sleek case gives me the best of two worlds. Very satisfied!

I have been wanting a case that can guarantee protection from all of the elements, but still offer additional battery life. I am so happy they finally came out with one. I usually buy Mophie cases, but they do not offer the protection that lifeproof guarantees. When I got the case I made sure to test it in water for a couple hours. No leaks! The extra battery works well and I no longer have to drag my charger around everywhere. Definitely recommend.

I started my walking program the same time that I got this. Since then it has rained on me several times walking home. Not to worry this thing is almost bullet proof. Rain proof, sweat proof and an extra charge just in case your music sucks your battery dry during your walk. I love that the battery turns itself off after reaching 100% phone charge. This leaves extra battery back up just in case.

Does what it needs too. Great for extended battery life with a handy little button to toggle on and off. It does add a fair bit of bulk to the phone but better safe then sorry.

I love my lifeproof case. The ability to add a power pack, even better! Upgraded my lifeproof to the lifeproof power and don't regreat it one bit. Great protection for everyday drops and spills, yet fun to take in the pool, or have on a rainy day... now with power!

Live the Iphone but not impressed with the batt life. I have rock outterboxes for my last 3 iphones. But this is the best of all works, batt charger to 100%, full protection, and the added protect of waterproof. I'm a happy camper
