If I put it in water will it resist the water? because my friends have said that their phones have been damaged from water with waterproof cases?!

Hi Jim, I can't answer that question because I find it difficult to "test" my new Iphone by putting it under water.If it leaks and my phone is ruined....I lose, if it doesn't leak and my phone is fine...I got what I paid for.All I can say is....I am trusting the case to protect my phone from water damage "as advertised". In my opinion the case snapped together securely, with what I believe to be good seals at the joints.I don't expect to take my phone with me "in" the pool or oceanbut I believe it will protect it from splashes and drinks at the table accidents.Hope this helps......john Hi Jim, I can't answer that question because I find it difficult to "test" my new Iphone by putting it under water.If it leaks and my phone is ruined....I lose, if it doesn't leak and my phone is fine...I got what I paid for.All I can say is....I am trusting the case to protect my phone from water damage "as advertised".

Water resistant is not the same as water proof. Common sense says not to submerge any electronics in water even if using a water-proof case. I've gotten mine wet from rain and mud but not dropped it in a toilet, for instance.

If you are referring to being water resistant. Mine hasn't been in anyway near water. I will think it's not water resistant.

You know Im not sure to be honest. I do know for sure. What I do know that by the design if you out it in water with the case on its not sealed enough to stop the water from in between the case and the phone. I just took off the case entirely when I wanted to take underwater pics

I believe it water resistant, I spilled water on it and my phone was dry. I wouldn't go swimming with it though

waterproof no, water resistant yes. The IP (ingress protection) rating of the phone says that submerging the phone or splashing it with water will not hard the phone. It is a good idea not to use the speakers when submerged either.

No, it said it water resistancee , but I not taking any chance with phone, I use small zip bag to protect.

NOO. It's water resistant but if you plan on doing that...you need to go with a Life Proof case. Two VERY different things!

When I first got it I tested the water resistance and yes it worked to keep water out but the problem is it is very fragile so if you drop it once...chances are it won't be water proof anymore

These cases are notorious for this problem. They all have this problem. The only answer I have found is to cut out the waterproof membrane from the bottom of the case where the microphone hole is. It solves the problem, however your phone is no longer submersible. It will remain water resistant.

Not really. FYI if u want your iPhone to last never drop it in water. I don't care how they described it waterproof I heard too many incidents that they dropped their phone in the water or pool in a lifeproof case still their iPhones were damaged.

Well I've never dropped it in water but it is completely covered. It has a screen protector attached to the phone case so I would say if you dropped it in water and got it out right away it would probably protect it but not 100% sure. I love my case. I have dropped it on floor and it protected my phone....great case!

I think they consider it a water resistant case. I don't think you can submerge it under water, but it will protect it from most splashes or spills.

This quote is taken directly from the product description on the Amazon webpage. "Case design retains the Galaxy S 5 water resistance with sealing rubber inside the back cover" So I would have to say that the case is water resistance just like the phone.

Don't get it wet...period! Sweat from your ear will drown your phone. No water resistance rating or if you really need a rating it classifies as a BIG Zilch!

Not sure what you mean... For one, the phone isn't waterproof, but it is water-resistant. The screen protector won't affect how well the phone resists water... It will protect the screen in the event of a drop tho.

The phone itself is not waterproof. It is water resistant. This case is not waterproof.

I have dropped my phone a few times and it has been fine but I would not trust the case with water.
