For all-day, take-anywhere protection, the black Case for the iPhone 4S/4 from Lifeproof makes a great choice. The case has a full IP-68 rating against water and dust, and is designed according to military specifications. It will guard against shocks and impacts to your phone, and remains fully sealed against minute dust particles. You can even take it underwater during trips to the beach or pool. While offering unsurpassed protection, the case itself only adds a scant 1/16" to your phone, so it won't add much bulk when you're carrying it around.

You can feel free to continue using the built-in camera on your iPhone as well -- the case has double AR-coated (anti-reflective) optical glass lenses for unprecedented crystal-clear photo and video quality. Plus, you can benefit from access to all phone features while it's inside the case. The case also improves the bass and mid-frequency speaker response by utilizing the back of the case as a sub-woofer for a richer, fuller sound. To sweeten the deal, Lifeproof has included a bonus headphone adapter and keeper for the headphone jack cover along with this rugged case. The Case for the iPhone 4S/4 is backed by Lifeproof's 90-day warranty and can be extended to one-year by registering the product with Lifeproof.

        Comments about Lifeproof Case for the iPhone 4S/4 (Black):

        I'm an avid fisherman and have lost previous phones to moisture. I've been able to wade in streams keeping my phone completely submerged and not have any leaks or any issues whatsoever. Unlike other durable waterproof cases this case allows me to use all of the buttons and ports without removing the case. Something you can't do with a Hitcase or something similar.

            The fit, finish, and design are all good. Much more comfortable to carry around in pocket than Otterbox Defender.Only complaint is the screen cover does not sit flat on the phone, so you have a slight gap between the phone screen and the screen cover. Kind of odd to get used to, and takes tapping the screen a little more firmly to use, but is not a problem once you get used to it. I have no experience in using it in the elements/rain, so cannot comment on that aspect.

                  Comments about Lifeproof Case for the iPhone 4S/4 (Black):

                  Im a fisherman. I lost my broke my last Iphone by getting it wet. As a fisherman its bound to happen. I upgraded my contract and got a new Iphone 4S, and as extra insurance i wanted a waterproof case. I did a lot of research and came across this case and it seemed to be the best one for the job. It is very slim, not bulky by any means. The best thing about it, ITS WATERPROOF OF COURSE! I tested the case as directed by the instructions first, completely air tight. Installed my phone per instructions, put it underwater for 10 mins, no leaks. I have since had it out in the elements, rain, salt spray, (no immersment in water quite yet) and its worked just fine. Mu only concern is I dont know how long the snap seal will last, or the O ring inside. There is no sign of fatigue or anything yet, it just something to consider. My girlfriend liked mine, so she is ordering one for her phone as well.

                              It is a little large, but seens to be unbreakable, so you can go to the beach without worry.

                              Good for protection, but hard to connections.

                                Im a fisherman. I lost my broke my last Iphone by getting it wet. As a fisherman its bound to happen. I upgraded my contract and got a new Iphone 4S, and as extra insurance i wanted a waterproof case. I did a lot of research and came across this case and it seemed to be the best one for the job. It is very slim, not bulky by any means. The best thing about it, ITS WATERPROOF OF COURSE! I tested the case as directed by the instructions first, completely air tight. Installed my phone per instructions, put it underwater for 10 mins, no leaks. I have since had it out in the elements, rain, salt spray, (no immersment in water quite yet) and its worked just fine. Mu only concern is I dont know how long the snap seal will last, or the O ring inside. There is no sign of fatigue or anything yet, it just something to consider. My girlfriend liked mine, so she is ordering one for her phone as well.
