iPhone 4 waterproof case?

Post by HeroicZebra » May 23rd, 2011, 11:30 pm

Ok before you think I'm stupid and crazy hear me out.

I'm going on vacation to Myrtle Beach in July, and I want to take pictures.

I figure "My iPhone can take good pictures and video, why not?"

Then I realized I'll be in swimtrunks practically the whole day, and in the pool, at the beach, etc. Meaning I'll have the leave my phone in the hotel room unless I want to douse it in water every five minutes.

So I come here asking if anyone knows of a good, solid, waterproof iPhone 4 case. The big part is being able to use the camera. Not so much making phone calls and all of that. I won't necessarily be taking it to the bottom of the pool either, but I need something that'll keep it protected should it get a few dribbles of water on it.

Anyone have suggestions?

I was looking for just such a thing a few weeks ago, but after doing quite a bit of research and reading reviews, I've come away with the impression that none of the solutions available currently are good enough to satisfy my concerns about the risk involved with taking an iPhone into water. I've pretty much scrapped that idea for now.
I am now telling the computer exactly what it can do.

Do you know of one that protects well enough from like just drops of water? Like I said I'm not planning on submerging it in water, I just need protection from wet hands or slightly moist swimtrunks

Look at Otterbox mate. Or alternately Gumdrop. Both make good solutions, neither is submersible but will keep your i<device> safe from accidental splashes and the like.
