Is this case toddler proof? My 1 year old stold my phone off the table, drooled in the charger port, and not realizing it was wet, I put it on charger and fried the phone. The insurance replacement arived today. She also made chew marks on the metal...

I really don't know for sure, but the cover for the charger port is pretty hard to open for an adult (I have cracked an acrylic nail on it more than once! Just ask my nail tech!) so I think it would be hard for your toddler to drool in there so long as you remember to close that cover. The cover for the headphone port is easier to open, though.

I've had my unit for 4 months - it's never been knocked over and I haven't noticed any damage to the port. The slot into which the tablet fits is quite tight and this accounts for most of the "holding properties" of the dock - in other words, the tablet doesn't simply stay upright in the dock because of the charging port connection.

No, the case is not waterproof. It is water resistant to some very small degree. The ports are not covered. These cases are meant to protect against falls or drops or other related damage, but not liquid damage.

I experienced the same thing. When I purchase the tablet online this otter box pop up as a recommended item for the tablet. The company's need to recheck there research. And I still won't allow my son to have it from fear of him breaking it.

I can only tell you that I am still using this case and have dropped it multiple times and have had no problems! I have ordered 2 more one for a friend and one for my wife and they both love them! I did the water test when I first got it like the direction said! I know it's going to save my phone from water if I accidentally drop it in water! I will not take it in water on purpose! I hope this helps!

I have the black case phone and it's been beaten solidly. I have left it out for days in the rain, dropped it too many times to count, etc. It has never failed me. Dried that puppy out, put her back together and she was always good to go.

Not sure what happened but my daughter took it to the beach and the water got in. Totally ruined the phone. Luckily I had insurance.

Nope. We had the same thing happen. I called lifeproof and they said they guaranteed their case and nothing else. I was furious! Ended up getting a square trade warranty and getting the phone fixed. It now lives in an OtterBox case.

No it is not waterproof but it does keep the port covers from getting dirty. I would not take this phone with this case in the shower. I it makes the phone bulky. Makes the back square. I can throw my phone now so all my worries of it breaking if dropped are gone. I was also able to attach a phone lanyard to it which makes the case even awesomerz

Honestly, the phone seems pretty durable. I bought it for my 12 year old and its been dumped in book bags and dropped repeatedly. Still works! I didn't buy a protective case but rather "something pretty". You'd be safe getting whatever you like I'd think. It's not as delicate as these newer cell phones are

Probably not! It doesn't work at all and when I tried to return it, they were terribly nasty on the phone. I ended up using a plastic bag for 8 months that was a nuisance but did the trick. Good luck to you and your child! Debi

If the case on the phone is modified in any way the answer is no...I highly recommend that you steer clear of this case...I love Trident and they tried their level best to resolve the issue (Four replacement cases in less than six-months!!!) but this case is simply not very durable. Broken tabs every two months...the charging system worked great, but the case itself is flawed. I wanted mine to work sooooo bad!?!

Hi Tanav! Kendall here from The Friendly Swede! The particular case you have inquired about is not a waterproof case or made from water-resistant material. Therefore, we highly recommend you keep the case dry to keep from damaging it. It is a tough case and will protect your phone from impact but we highly recommend you keep it away from water so that you don't risk damaging your phone! I hope I could help! Should you have any further questions or concerns, please contact us directly at the following customer service link:

That is exactly what happened to me! The bottom strip of plastic at the bottom eventually broke off in my pocket from being snagged. If I had another case that is protective like this one, I would change my case, but I don't so just use this one despite the little part broken

Hey Pen Name, I've had my phone now for quite some time and it works really well. I have gotten it quite wet and it didn't affect it, however, I have not taken it into a swimming pool. Didn't want to tempt fate :) Cheers Morganna

Most cases like this will break if you drop the phone outside of water as long as you don't drop it on a pointy object that hits the screen first. A new case is cheaper than a new phone.

My daughter has this case and she actually dropped her phone the other day and the case came off. I have not seen her try to take it off other than that but since it came off that easily I would have to say that maybe your case has some kind of a defect or something. Sorry wish I could help.
