    Question The iPhone Scuba Suit

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Anybody tried using a totally waterproof case for an iPhone 4?

    Just been reading about the iPhone Scuba Suit and it looks quite impressive, have a feeling it is quite new as I cannot find many reviews.

    Or any other cases that you can recommend, I am specifically after a cover whereby it can be turned on and off while still in the case.

    Cheers.

    I had one of these on my iphone 4 while kayaking last week and it was awesome. 100% waterproof and you have 100% functionality while in the case, too. I did not listen to the earphones (I don't own waterproof ones) but I'm going to give them a shot eventually when I start aqua-jogging with it. They even have one that floats now!

    (I've not heard of the scuba suit)

    DH has a lifeproof. It's okay. The touch screen requires more of a solid touch than you'd expect. We haven't had the nerver to test how waterproof it is, yet. His last iphone got dropped in the river.

    I just gave my daughter my Otterbox and got the Lifeproof case. I love it. I can take a bath and listen to tunes or play games on my iPhone.

    The sell a bike bracket for it too. Guess what I'm getting?

    A friend of mine just got the lifeproof case. Her children talked her into it, and she wound up spilling coffee all over her phone. No worries-the case protected the phone completely!

    I did the waterproof test without my phone in the case, first. I submerged the case in a deep sink full of water for 3+ hours (weighed it down with a glass) and zero water got in.

    I do think the lifeproof case needs a place to attach a leash of some sort. I was terrified that I was going to drop it in the ocean while kayaking and never see it again. I assume it sinks (though, maybe not?). The new orange float thingy looks like a good idea, but it wasn't on their website earlier this summer.
