Customers are saying

Customers highly value the FRĒ Series Carrying Case's excellent protection and water resistance, frequently praising its secure fit and ease of use. However, some users experienced issues with Face ID functionality and sound muffling, while others found the screen protector and price to be less satisfactory. The case's lightweight design was also a positive attribute for many.

    I bought it to take on a trip to Hawaii. The intent was to take pictures/videos while snorkeling. Shortly after submerged, the case would start filling with water. I made sure it was sealed, repositioned the little rubber piece, and retried it multiple times. Every time it would leak. A $10 plastic sack on a necklace from Amazon worked better than this $80 life proof case. I would love a refund, but it’s probably too late now. Aside from it not being waterproof, it sucks to use outside of the water. The plastic covering on the screen makes it annoying to type. I recommend searching elsewhere for a case.

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear that your FRĒ case isn't up to the our high standards! It's certainly odd to hear that your LifeProof is leaking water. The good news is, we have a great warranty, so we'd be more than happy to get you taken care of with a case that is functioning properly. Give us a ring at 1-888-533-0735, and we can get your claim started.

    Unfortunately this case does not live up to the legacy of previous models. I have owned every version going back to the beginning of the series and am disappointed with many aspects. Most importantly is the fact that it does not work with wireless charging, neither the older QI, which has worked with previous versions, or MagSafe which was purchased for use with this new iPhone and case combination. If you do a quick search thru their own website feedback you we see this is a widespread issue, and LifeProof continues to state that it will work. Long time customer, who may have just purchased his last Lifeproof product.

      Hi, Chris!

      We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with your FRĒ case! We appreciate your feedback, and we'll be sure to pass your thoughts up the ladder to our design team. While that case can charge on the MagSafe and Qi chargers, it isn't designed for optimal performance with all MagSafe accessories. We have found that some charging bases work better with our cases than others, so a different charger may work better for you. If you continue having issues, please don't hesitate to reach out to our helpful Customer Service Team here: https://www.lifeproof.com/en-us/contact-us

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with your FRĒ case! We appreciate your feedback about the scratches on your case, and we'll be sure to let our design team know about your experience. Keep in mind, many of those seals are designed to be removable for cleaning purposes, and should slot back in the case fairly easily. If you're having excess trouble with that case, please don't hesitate to reach out to our helpful Customer Service Team here: https://www.lifeproof.com/en-us/contact-us

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear that you were having some trouble with your FRĒ case! Sometimes if you don't have that case installed just right, it can lead to some audio issues like you're experiencing. When you're putting your phone into that case, we recommend sliding your phone in speaker-end first, as that will help with proper alignment of the speakers, microphones, and proximity sensors. If you decide you'd like to get your case replaced, feel free to call us at 1-888-533-0735, and we'd be more than happy to get you taken care of.

      Hi, Dwayne!

      We're bummed to hear that you're having troubles using FaceID in your FRĒ case! We are happy to walk you through some steps to modify your case that should resolve this issue.

      Step 1: Open your case and remove your device.

      Step 2: Lay the front of the case down on a flat hard surface with the screen protector surface facing down (the Silence Switch will be on your right).

      Step 3: Centered near the top of the inside of the screen protector, you’ll see two small clear stickers. Using your fingernail, remove the sticker on the right (leave the left sticker in place).

      Step 4: You may need to use some isopropol or rubbing alcohol and a Q-tip to remove glue residue left by the sticker you removed.

      After doing that, your case should be good to go! If that doesn't help, please don't hesitate to reach out to our helpful Customer Service Team here: https://www.lifeproof.com/en-us/contact-us

    Needs work. I think they have made some changes now, but the product that I received the FaceId would not work unless you pulled off a piece inside the case. The MagSafe charger would not stay connected they the back of the case. The waterproof seal was way over stretched. If you do buy one make sure there is only 1 plastic dot to the front of the selfie cam. Lifeproof used to be my go to case but it looks like I will be looking for another

      You're not wrong to expect a fog-free experience with the LifeProof FRĒ, and we're sorry to hear things were a bit hazy right out of the gate. Between that and the continuously disengaging gasket, perhaps it's best we take things from the top with a brand-new warranty replacement, which we trust will give you no such trouble going forward. You can use the link below to set things in motion, or feel free to give us a quick call at 1-888-533-0735 and we'll be glad to help!

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear about your frustration with your FRĒ case! While your case is designed with Qi charging in mind, we've found that some chargers perform better with our cases than others, so a different charging base may yield better results. We're sad to hear that you ended up returning your case, but we hope you choose to give us another shot in the future.
