Professional Waterproof Diving Case for Snorkeling, 15M/50FT Underwater Photo & Video Protective Housings Lanyard for iPhone 17/16/15/14/13/12Pro Max/XR/XS/X Samsung Galaxy S25/24/23/22 Ultra/Plus

Awesome product (for under $50). I am so happy and relieved that this box kept my phone perfectly dry and allowed me to take some awesome underwater pix on our recent vacation to Hawaii. 5 years ago I bought 2 or 3 cheaper 'ziplock bag' type waterproof iPhone cases and they were an unbelievably frustrating disaster. I missed out on some lifetime photos of my daughter swimming and diving with sea turtles and I've been mad about it since then. This time I spent a little more and I'm so glad I did ~ I have the pix to prove it!The box is very tough, the seal is good, and the 6 strong clamps are very tight. In fact it's quite hard to get them open so make sure to keep the little 'guitar pick' tool with you ~ you'll probably need it.Adjusting the spring clamps inside the box to fit your phone only takes a minute once you're used to it, and it's kinda nice that it can fit all kinds of phones sizes and brands because others on my trip could borrow it.I don't know how it's possible but the touchscreen (kinda) works (if you're patient) so you can change camera settings while underwater. If I clicked enough times I could switch from photo to video mode, and even zoom. Again, it's all relative: it's way better than the plastic bags.The 'extended grip' is really nice just for stability, but the external trigger button is poorly designed. It's soft rubber, so it's easy to push down but half the time it squished to one side and got caught inside the housing and didn't pop back up. That means it's sometimes shooting rapid-fire when I only wanted one shot. I eventually gave up using the trigger and just poked at the screen 'record' button until I saw the timer running.I will say that the glass on the lens side of the case stayed clear and fog-free and my photos came out as clear and sharp as I could have hoped. There's even a small 'pressure release valve' on the back so when the sun heats up the box and the touch screen sheet starts to bow away from your phone, you can let out the air pressure without having to open the case. Nice.One major challenge, I presume with any underwater case, is the reflections can be maddening. Not sure there's a way to solve that, maybe unless you bought an extremely expensive kit with an anti-reflective surface? The problem is that since you're likely snorkeling and pointing your camera straight down into the dark water, the bright sky is right behind you reflecting in the glass. At many angles you can't see a damned thing. So I found myself curling into a ball and trying to tuck my camera into the shadow of my body just to make sure the video was rolling. Ugh.Still, in the end all I cared about was getting a shot of my kids with some sea life ~ and some late night fun in the hotel pool ~ and it did a pretty good job for so low a price.

The media could not be loaded. This phone housing case was life changing! I ordered for my vacation to Hawaii as I didn’t feel like spending a bunch of money on a special camera just for the trip. I love taking photos and videos though, so this seemed like the perfect solution- and, boy, did it meet my expectations!I tested it out at home before actually using it in the ocean. This thing is SECURE to say the least. I used it so many times on my trip and I will bring it on every vacation I plan to do underwater activities. I had zero leaks and the camera clarity wasn’t negatively affected by the case. I used my personal phone, so making sure it was stable and secure was very important. I love that it has the thick, sturdy cord to attach to your wrist. That extra security eased my mind extremely! It was actually kind of difficult to open the case once I was done using it because of the seal/pressure- but I’m not complaining! It definitely made me feel like my phone was safe and nothing was going to happen to my memories.While this might seem a bit pricey, it’s better than hundreds of dollars for a GoPro or similar. I 10000% recommend this!

Used the case in the past, worked well with my smart phone, but as I gave it to a friend, I had to order a new one. Ordered the device TWICE from Amazon, but received used units. As the condition of the unit is critical for the waterproofing of the cell phone, I'm not willing to take chances.Highly disappointed. If I order a NEW case, I expect the case to be new, not a used case that someone else returned, while still asking for the full price.

Good quality Thank you much,

Got it yesterday. Instructions are horrible. Tested twice in 6inches of water in the kitchen sink for >30minutes. No leaks yet. Pictures ok through the plastic window. Don’t think I would trust it to 15m but I’ll give it a try snorkeling.

We used this with a Samsung S24 when snorkeling in the Virgin Islands and it allowed us to get great pictures. They were so good that I don't see the need for a Go-Pro type camera, at least for this purpose. There was no discoloration above or below the water with our phone in this case, and being able to see the full screen is much better than the small screen of an action camera. In the future, I will likely leave our action camera home when snorkeling.

I liked the housing is not cheap plastic, it is a type of metal and kinda heavy. We can wait to use it in the ocean on our next cruise.

Going to be perfect for the Beach
