does this actually protect your phone underwater, like could you take it in the pool with you

Hi Izzy. I'm sorry, I don't know. Once I discovered the case did not properly fit the phone, I sent it back.

Haven't tried and don't plan to but has kept phone protected w small amounts of water spilling on it.

Yes its just great you can throw it in the pool and take pictures underwater

I'm not sure if you can take in water with you my son did drop it in snow and nothing happen and also I got it wet when doing dishes and nothing happened. But that is all I can tell you about it as far as water goes. I hope you get the right case for you I do love mine.

Haven't put it in water with phone inside, but when I checked it before using by placing it in water it appeared to be water proof.

No, if you drop the phone+case while it's in water it will sink. It comes with a neat wrist strap to prevent that from happening though!

If you are looking to swim with your phone in it, no. I ran a half with it and splashed water on myself and sweat a ton without issues. But no, it is not water proof. It may repel water, but the fabric is nylon feeling.

No its really waterproof. We tried it before we put our phone in it. It really works!

no not at all if it is that cheap your phone will probably brake under water

No. There are places where water could get to the phone itself from the case. Took mine to the beach and even got sand under the screen protector.

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".

No. I have the galaxy s4 and technically you can squeeze it in to the case but only the second opening will close so I don't know how much protection that will give your phone if it is submerged into water. I bought this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009NUVVV0/ref=redir_mdp_mobile?psc=1&redirect;=true&ref;_=oh_details_o01_s00_i02 Works great for my galaxy s4!

Not if submerged but it does a great job of protecting the phone from water in cases of rain, spilled liquid, etc.

No! Nothing is actually that good. However I have had better success with the LifeProof than any other cover OtterBox etc. Living on a lake and always by the water I have dropped previous phones in or walked into the water having had my phone in my pocket only to ruin a couple of phones. The LifeProof is Truly Waterproof! I have taken images under water in my 8ft deep end of our pool with no issues!

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.

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

It does have a zip-type waterproof section, so I think the phone would be safe, but the bag is a little bit large to use swimming, in my opinion.You can get Dry Pak cases that work much better for that. They have them in different sizes, and they are clear so you can actually use your phone (photos, etc) without taking it out of the Dry Pak.Short answer - yes, it will protect your phone, but it would be a bit clunky swimming with it.Tip - whatever you decide on - put one of those little desiccant packets in the bottom of the pouch to dry up any moisture that might get inside.

Hi . . . I'm sorry. I can't really answer your question. I bought the case to use this summer at the pool and beach . . . so we haven't had a chance to use it yet. I did have a similar case for my iPhone 4 last year and the pictures came out fine, but I didn't use it underwater. I needed a different case now that I have an iPhone 5, that's why I bought this one. It fits the phone fine, but like I said . . . I haven't had a chance to use it yet. I'm not planning on using it underwater though . . . but more for just protection of my phone at the beach or pool so it doesn't get wet by accident. Sorry I couldn't give you more information.

i definitely wouldnt take this under water intentionally. I have this case, LOVE it. great protector, not sure why you'd want to take it underwater.

No. I never attempted to put my phone in water with the case on (nor was I ever told that it was waterproof haha), but with all the uncovered areas I wouldn't think about doing it. Dust got on the screen and all around my phone so easily with that cover on, so it can be assumed water would do the same.
