EVERY SINGLE CASE WATER TESTED
To give you confidence to go everywhere with your LifeProof iPhone, iPod and iPad we water test each and every case we make. Not only that, after the test an independent agent performs additional testing and even puts randomly selected cases through a second water test. We never ship a case unless it has been successfully tested. As LifeProof employees we use our cases every day, so we only make cases we trust ourselves!
DESIGNED TO MEET OR EXCEED THESE SPECIFICATIONS:
Military Standard 810F-516
MIL STD 810 F is the standard that addresses a broad range of environmental conditions, with MIL STD 810F-516 being the section of the standard that is specific to functional drop. This standard requires that the item can physically and functionally withstand the relatively infrequent, non-repetitive shocks encountered in handling, transportation, and service environments. This may include an assessment of the overall material system integrity for safety purposes in any one or all of the handling, transportation, and service environments.
IP-68
IEL 60529 is the standard for Ingress Protection from water and dust for enclosures. IP-68 is the most rigorous classification in this specification. The first characteristic number describes protection from solid foreign objects. An enclosure with a characteristic number of 6 can withstand exposure to circulating talcum powder for 8 hours with no dust ingress after that period. The second characteristic number describes protection against water. An enclosure with a characteristic number of 8 exceeds all other water protection levels and is specified by the manufacturer. For LifeProof, number 8 signifies LifeProof cases will withstand immersion in water to a depth of 2 meters / 6.6 feet for 60 minutes.

Great awesome fabulous simply the best LIFEPROOF!!!! Anyone with a iPhone needs this case, I need a case for my iPad and you do too!!! – Paul B.
I can say not only is lifeproof water proof, dust proof and shock proof but it's also "car" proof. My wife left her phone on her car by accident. It fell off on a major 4 lane highway. The phone was ran over by a car. The case saved my wife's phone. It broke apart and but the phone still works with minor scratches. Now she gets to have the pink lifeproof case she wanted. – Dana G.
I just wanted to let ya know that your product saved me $500. Somehow my iphone 4s ened up in my ice box in the freezer. It was misplaced there for 15 hours. Ten minutes after I found it, the phone started working again. Thank you!!!! – Sarah P.
I work for the fire department and have had my case for almost two days now. Last night while on a call, my phone fell out of my truck and onto a dirt road. I didn't realize that my phone was missing until I got back to the fire station. After an hour of trying to figure out where my phone was, we finally located the iPhone through Apple's iPhone tracker. The phone was still in the road and face down in the dirt. The back of the case had a tire mark across it where either the rescue truck or the police cruiser backed over it. When I picked up the phone, the protective screen of the case was scratched pretty bad, sand was packed in every crack, and there were a few scratches all around. When I got backed to the station I pulled the phone out of the case. Much to my amazement, the phone was undamaged! I cleaned the case up and put the phone back in it. Unfortunately the screen protector is severely scratched, but I am going to continue to use the case until I can afford another. The picture is impressive! Thanks for a product that actually does what it says it will do. I am a true believer! – Mark S.
Hello, my name is Steve and I purchased a IPhone case from you a few months ago. I just wanted to express how happy I am with your product. I work for a irrigation and well company and constantly put your case through hell whether it be dirt, sand, mud, or water your product has protected my phone. Due to how well the case has performed at my job I decided to bring it along with me on a 10 kilometer obstacle course called Mudman X, whch was held in Lakewood, NJ. The case was submerged for over twenty minutes in muddy water and took many impacts. I figured I would just let you know how great of a product that you have. – Steve B.
I love their product!!! Completely AWESOME!!! The customer service is great!!! I love Rex the best!!! – Sandi H.
Just had a quick story to share. Tonight I went on a 5 mile run through town. I had my iphone with me to track the mileage -- it was nestled carefully in the top cup holder in my son's stroller. At the halfway point on my run, I stopped to check my time....only to discover that my phone was GONE. Nowhere to be found. It was a windy night and we had hit a lot of bumps on the road. I realized it had bounced out somewhere along the way, but had no idea where or when it happened. I slowly backtracked & walked back the way I came. The further I walked, the more hopeless the situation became. Just two tenths of a mile away from my starting point, I looked down to see my phone floating face down in a deep puddle of cold, muddy water. At this point, most people would have been happier if they had never found their phone. But for me -- not so! Why? Because my Lifeproof case saved the day! As I knew it would, when I picked it up the phone after floating in that puddle for over an hour, not a drop of water had penetrated the case & my phone worked perfectly. Wiped the muddy water away, and on we went! So, so, SO happy I had my Lifeproof case. Hooray Lifeproof! Thanks so much for making such a solid, amazing case. –Tania L.
I just wanted to write you and tell you about my Lifeproof story. I purchased a Lifeproof case for myself and my wife off your website about 3 months ago. After completing the water test and registering our phones, we were off to the races. After using Otterboxes for the first year of our iPhone4’s, we could not have been happier with how the Lifeproof case felt, worked and protected our phones. That being said, I could not have anticipated just how amazing these cases were. About 3 weeks ago I took an early morning walk with our newborn to let my wife sleep. As we walked, I placed my phone on my son’s lap and played him music. We strolled around the whole morning without incident, and then I looked down and noticed that my phone was missing. I retraced my steps and came to one of the busiest intersections in the area. Much to my dismay, I saw my phone lying face down on the pavement right in the middle of the intersection. I watched in pain as a truck pulling a boat rolled over the phone and then the boat rolled over the phone. A few car rolls later and much cringing, the light changed and I walked out to retrieve what I assumed was my destroyed phone. I was stunned to hear music coming out of my phone as I walked up. Not only was the screen perfectly intact, but the phone worked without trouble. The only visible damage were two nicks in the plastic near the home button. My phone sat in an intersection for close to 20 or 30 minutes, only to emerge unscathed. When I got home I took the phone out of the case to check for damage. Not a nick, not a scratch and none the worse for wear after getting rolled over by a car. I cannot thank you enough for developing a product that goes above and beyond what anyone could ever expect. Since that day I have told every person I know about these cases and now I am happy to say several friends, family and colleagues are now Lifeproof. Lifeproof and then some. –Hudson Harris

I totally love this product. I am an iPhone clutz and have dropped my previous iPhone's and smashed several screens (costing me $150 each time for repair). Since I purchased the LifeProof cover, I have 100% confidence of taking my phone everywhere and anywhere!
Every time I have accidentally dropped the phone, I have not so silently praised the fact that the LifeProof offers me fantastic protection! I have even accidentally left the phone on the edge of a car boot (trunk) and someone closed the door on it. Thanks to LifeProof the phone was undamaged!
I work in dusty and wet climates in the North of Western Australia. I have absolute confidence in taking my phone out to this rugged environment, and happily use my phone in all season, weather and terrain. I also do a fair amount of cycling, and I love the fact that I can put my phone in my back pocket without worrying about a little dirt, sweat or rain! Just to show you how confident I was with the case, I took it out paddling on my last trip to NZ...no problems!
What I like most about the design is the slimness and the tough case without the need for 'sticky' silicone. When using other 'brick' type protection, I had problems getting the phone in/out of a pocket. With your design, I have no such problems!!
I have convinced many of my friends and colleagues to purchase your case! Obviously I rave about it just a little too much!
Any chance of a car mount for this phone?

Love the case. It has a slim and light weight design!
The only thing I dislike is that the head phone plug is not teathered to the case.
My niece and I are always losing the plug. If there was a way to teather it would be great.

I have received this case about a month ago and let me tell you, this is a great case! I drop my phone quit frequently and there is no damage what so ever to my phone or case. This case is very durable! I definitely recommend everyone to get this because, even though it is a lot of money, I rather pay $79.00 for this case then pay $100.00+ at the apple iPhone store to get my phone fixed. I drop my phone quit frequently like I said, so this case has saved me a lot of money. This is a great buy! I recommend all to get the LifeProof case!

I currently have a LifeProof TEAL case for my iPhone 4s and this is the best investment besides the phone I have ever made! I seriously have let my son play in the tub with it and have dropped and even thrown it multiple times (got a little mad lol) and my phone is in perfect condition after almost a year. I am obsessed with changing my phone cases but with this one, I have not changed since I bought it! Beside the obvious perks and protection of it, it is UNBELIEVABLY THIN. And that is something that I have not found with any other "rugged" case. I'm in love! The color (I have Teal) is gorgeous and bright. I recently bought one for my sister (but in pink and gray) for Mother's day and she loves it too. My upgrade is coming for my iPhone 5 in less than a month, I have just ordered myself a LifeProof Fre for that, in White as I want to show off the white of my phone, maybe get a color next <3 I love everything about it! YOU ARE AMAZING. Thank you!

I like that my case gives me security without making my phone HUGH. I get frustrated that the charger is so difficutl to take out when not using the adaptor. I have also had an issue with the phone saying that it is in headphone mode after taking the headphone adaptor out. Other than that it is a great case.

very good case. not as shock resistant as otterbox. i dropped my iphone with the case a good 5 feet, and it bounced around on the ground.. apparently the phone shut off.. i find that strange because thats never happened to me with an otterbox... also 80 bucks is a little expensive too but whatever my phone still works right? already purchased my third one today for my travel iphone.. i got the black/clear one.. we'll see how that goes after hearing things like it scratching easily....

This is by far the best case you could buy for your iphone. I live in Denver and just went to waterworld the other day. I left my phone in my pocket all day and it is completely fine. It was submerged in water basically for 8 hours straight, and I would pull it out of my pocket soaking wet and it worked like a charm when wet. Only 4 stars on design due to the fact you have to buy life proof adapter for charger port, this should come with the product, other than that this is a 5 star product!

I drop my phone at least 5 times a day and this case protects my phone every time. This is my second case in about a year and a half because of the amount of wear and tear it faces. I purchased the clear case which was slightly deceiving as it appears that both sides of the case are clear when in actuality, only the back part of the case is clear. I would have purchased a color one instead had this been more apparent. Still can't beat the protection. #fanforlife
