This case leaves the front of your phone vulnerable to water, dirt, breakage, etc. Not sure how it can possibly be "water and dirt resistant" as advertised when the entire face of the phone is exposed to the elements. Returned for a case that completely encloses the phone.

Dear Daisy,
We sincerely apologize about any miscommunication surrounding our NËXT series! The NËXT is intentionally designed to keep dirt and snow out of the most important parts of your phone (such as the charger port), as well as protect your device from intense drops. Additionally, the NËXT is our first non-waterproof case, as the website states, and incorporates screenless technology to allow users to directly interact with their phone display. Regardless, we're glad to hear that you found an option that works better for you, and should you have any further LifeProof questions, please don't hesitate to call our wonderful representatives at 1-888-533-0735. They'll be delighted to assist you!
Sincerely, LifeProof Customer Service Team

Case looks really good on the phone. But the back is very slippery, and the case is creaks.

The otter box reputation for protecting cellular phones is well deserved. The double shell gives great protection. The only issue is that they no longer offer screen protection in this case so I needed to add a zagg glass screen protector.

Have always used lifeproof cases to protect from accidental drops and falls. Holds up well to the daily grind - maybe not as pretty as the cheap cases-but when it falls on the floor- my phone and screen won’t shatter

Bought this at Christmas time for an iPhone 7. It fit well and allowed great functionality. This summer left my phone on patio while I was in pool. The case pretty much melted away. And fell apart. Phone was not hurt but case had to be replaced.

I went to several stores before I found this iPhone case for my iPhone 8. The case is durable, stylish and looks great with my new phone. Wishing I had started at Best Buy first-but happy to have this eye catching case.

This is our third life proof case. The company has an excellent warranty service. When we had a problem, they helped right away. The phone has never had any damage after being dropped. The case has always protected it.

I usually carry my phone in my back pocket. My case needs to be strong enough to protect my phone from bending, minimalistic to not add too much bulk or weight. This case strikes the right balance for me.

Dear Chelle,
Glad to hear that you're finding the NEXT case "fantastic!" We apologize about any disappointment caused by the lack of a screen protector. The NEXT is one of our screenless designs, allowing for direct contact with the touchscreen. If you have your heart set on a screen protector, we would recommend our FRĒ series, which does have integrated screen protection. Please feel free to check it out by following the link below, and reach out to us at 1-888-533-0735 with any further inquiries!

I love how Slim it is! It is not Bulky at all! It is good to note that it does make your phone bigger length wise. It will add on to the sides, so if you have small hands, it might be hard to hold.

Hi again, PirateSkevi!
Sorry to see that you're having trouble with two NEXT cases! The NEXT has to be very specifically installed in order to fit seamlessly with the iPhone, but as we said in the other response, our support team is happy to help! Just ring them up at 1-888-533-0735, and they'll get that case to match perfectly with your device in no time.
Sincerely, LifeProof Customer Service Team

These phone cases are the best protection for the money spent. We have tested them through everyday life and have only lost phones that were not in Lifeproof cases. They are the real thing.

Nice slim case. Like the clear back so you can see color and logo on back of phone. Hard to get off phone and one corner does not stay firmly latched.

this case is sleek and slim. the only thing that I don't like is the out part breaks apart and I ended having to call life proof twice since it comes apart fast.

The rubber began to peal in 7 months

I liked the case at first but in a few weeks dust began to build inside the back cover and then the rubber on the outside began to peel and the seal around the screen shortly after.
