I haven't had any issues with the Phoozy pouch but it seems to be well made with quality materials. Until summer I won't be testing its heat protection, flotation, or water resistance. Even though the Best Buy description says that it is for "Plus Size Devices," the box in which mine came has a sticker that says "Made for Smaller Phones." Fortunately, my iPhone 8 fits nicely, but I'm glad that I don't have a plus size one because it may not fit. That is the reason for the three-star rating and why I would be reluctant to recommend it.

The Phoozy case protects the phone as advertised, but is too snug for the iPhone XR using a smart battery case. Difficult to put in and pull out of case. The case seals only with velcro at the opening and I am not confident this case will keep the phone dry during water sports or when working in a very wet environment. I missed several calls due to the struggle of trying to pull my phone out of this case. I plan to keep it as it does provide a good cushion against drops or when in your pocket and you are working in a tight area and do not want to worry about cracking the screen on your phone. 4 stars max as it still does not accomodate larger phones as advertised.

After leaving my iPhone 6 Plus in the car overnight several times in the cold, I can tell you how fast it drains the battery and how many times I’ve had a dead phone. I picked this up for a few reasons, but this being one of them and did an experiment. The battery was almost full the next morning. Amazing.

Ordered on line. I wanted to protect my phone while in my purse. This does and much more. Well padded.I like the way it closes. It is a little bit snug but loosens up a bit with use.

I've been using this snowmobiling for past 3 weeks. I've had trouble in the past with my phone draining due to getting cold and constantly searching for a signal. I put my iPhone 5 and my iPod both in there and have been able to ride all day without worrying about the batteries dieting on my. Great purchase!!

I like this product a lot. Did what it said it would do. Definitely saved my battery on the mountain...and I dropped my phone while it was in the PHOOZY to asphalt while I was carrying my gear to my truck - not a scratch on my phone. five stars.

My wife purchased this for her XS phone and lives it! She has a cover on her phone but puts them inside this pouch. It’s padded to protect when you drop or throw in a pocketbook, gym bag. The Velcro closer is in the inside of the pouch on each of it a red seam is used. When dropped in water it floats. I hope this helps. I love it!!

A tight fit though my apple xr with apple clear case does fit in the bag. Have not had a need to try it at the beach or cold environment yet. Seeems like it will work though. On sale would recommend it.
Though sale price for larger one is not discounted as much when last on sale at BB site.

Seems to work well. Bought it to keep my phone battery from going dead from the cold weather. I have the 6+ so it is a little small but covers 98% of the phone.

We purchased this due to going to the beach in Cali. This product kept my phone clean and safe from the heat as we sat on the beach for 3 hours. I will be looking forward to purchasing more for this summer in Texas

I bought this for those times I forget to take my iPod out of my car or want to use it around a pool. It helps keep it cool if not left too long and also adds some protection.

This is a useful product but it seems that the designers made it for the iPhone ex S max without a case. I have a low profile case from nomad and it makes it very difficult to get in and out… I don’t want take it out of the case every time I put it into the pouch.

Solid phone case that is a bit on the small side but able to snugly fit my Samsung Galaxy phone. Have not 'tested ' it out yet as far as dropping or waterproof potential - and hopefully will never need to.
