Hi Andrew, You can safely submerge and use your phone up to 100 feet. Taking pictures is still possible while submerged as long as you can still see the capture button on your screen. Hope that helps. Kind Regards, Angie/ECO-FUSED

@Kevin, that's awful! Did you try to get it fixed by Sony? I have a Jabra clipper which is supposed to be very waterproof. I haven't tested it much, but it's not a perfect device. Only 3 buttons (which is annoying), and cuts out sometimes (depending on where phone is placed). But in all is ok, not great. The other option was this Sony device, but if it's not waterproof it's not even an option.Thanks for the feedback!

you can definitely have the phone underwater. don't know if the headphones will work or not.

I don't think that would be a good idea. It doesn't have any protective covering or anything. They make some that are much more expensive for swimming. The buttons on this don't have any rubber around them to keep water from going in to the circuit board and battery. You could get it and wrap it or something.

If you use the headphone adapter sent with the phone, it's support to be. However, I would not trust it in the water very long. It's probably as water proof as any you can purchase.

Yea you can, just not under water. I tried! This is GREAT product. One thing to be aware of is leaving the phone sealed inside the case on a hot day while your not in the water, it will heat up sooooooo fast.

Lucky for you. I only used mine once. It got so hot I was afraid it would damage my phone. Send it back and get a refund. Not worth ruining a phone.

They don't guaranty anything but it worked for me. I used it in about 4 feet of water while snorking in Cancun and it worked great! Make sure you test it empty (in the sink) first. When using it in the water, make sure it has enough air in it to prevent the plastic touching the screen or the water will activate the screen. Took some great clips and pics.

Yes - I used it for snorkeling in the ocean and then used it again the next day at the beach and it worked fine. The manual says to rinse it off after use in salt water.

Hello, I swim laps with this often in the pool with head phones. It works perfect. I also swim for fun and listen to my music under water without head phones using it as underwater speaker, Works great too. I have also used in snorkeling in ocean as a underwater camera, and in my pool as an underwater camera. That was safe, I still get some blur in underwater photo's, but above water photos are great! I would be happy to answer any more questions.

I haven't used it, but lined it up with my Droid Bionic Maxx, and it appears to work once you get it lined up. Got it to use kayaking, and that season isn't due for a few months yet in Michigan. Rather than using it to use my phone as a camera, I just wanted to protect my phone. For pics during times/places getting wet is an issue, I opted instead to get a Kodak easyshare sport camera that can take pics even underwater at shallow depths. Better risk than losing everything on my phone if it got was and not salvagable. Sorry couldn't be more helpful.

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

No you can't, but honestly if you are buying this to go underwater or use it in the water i don't think you would want to risk your headphones or want to risk your phone.

No, it is good protection for dropping and other common accidents, but if it was submerged in water the ports and phone would be damaged.

You can use your finger, you just have to press a little harder. But I REALLY suggest just getting the real life proof case. Although it is more expensive, it's worth it. I bought a cheap one, water tested it and thought it was fine but when I took it to the river, it was submerged in inches of water for a few minutes and water got in. I had to pay $500 for a new phone :( the cheap ones have flimsy parts that become loose without you noticing.
