    A little too bulky for what I like. I carry phone in back pocket.

      Hey Ligs,

      If the LifeProof NËXT case is feeling a bit too substantial for your needs and taste, you might find our more streamlined WĀKE to be just the thing you're after to easily fit in your back pocket. Feel free to take a closer look right here on Best Buy!

    Buttons are really hard to push and clear back was discolored within 1 day. I purchased on a Wednesday and by Thursday the area around the camera had turned yellow.

      Hi Daniel,

      We're sorry to hear about the stiff buttons and that your case is changing colors. Oftentimes those buttons will soften up just a bit with a little time and use. As far as the case color goes, we suggest removing your iPhone from the LifeProof to clean it with warm water and a mild soap. If that doesn't do the trick, please call us at 1-888-533-0735 and we'll hook you up with a replacement.

      Kindly,
      LifeProof Customer Service Team Lifeproof

    I am sure the drop protection is top of the line. But the buttons are nearly impossible to press with the case on and make the phone incredibly frustrating to use. Had to replace almost immediately.

    I have always used LifeProof, but this was a disappointment. The buttons were extremely hard to actuate, and it was ugly. Returned it. Bought an OtterBox Pro.

      Hi, Bob!

      We're sorry to hear about your troubles with your NËXT case! We appreciate your feedback about the buttons and discoloration, and we'll be sure to let our engineers know about your experience. As for your mute dial, when you're installing your LifeProof, we'd recommend first installing the front of the case, being sure to twist the mute dial a few times to ensure the mute switch is properly seated. Keep in mind, while that NËXT case keeps your phone safe from drops, dust, and other debris, it is not a waterproof case. If you run into any issues with your LifeProof, feel free to call us at 1-888-533-0735, and we can get you taken care of.
