This was my second Lifeproof case purchase-- I initially had a regular iPhone 5 and got a case for that phone, and then I purchased an iPhone 5c and needed to get the Lifeproof case for that model instead (the two types of iPhone most definitely do not fit in the same case!). I am very pleased with this case. I like the black and clear/translucent color scheme of this particular one, and especially like that it has a built-in, sealed screen protector, unlike the Lifeproof Nuud cases which have no built-in screen protector, exposing your screen to scratches or making the use of a regular plastic screen protector sheet necessary. I find that this one's built-in screen protection does make the screen of my phone slightly less responsive, but not in a way that compromises my normal use of the phone at all, with the exception of making actions around the edge of the screen more difficult (like placing the cursor at the end of a line of text to backspace-- that can be a little challenging sometimes, though it is still possible). There is very little "rainbow" splotching on the surface of the phone screen from the case, although there is one spot about 1/2 inch across on mine that does show this at times. Visibility of stuff on the screen is not affected at all. Despite that, I think this case is great; I work outdoors around lots of soil and water and often use my phone for work and carry it with me for much of the day. The case can be muddy or greasy or something and I can simply wash the whole assembly of phone and case off with soap and water. I have not submerged my phone in this case. For my needs, that test is unnecessary, but considering how the case has performed so far, I think it would be just fine if it got dunked underwater. The case is also quite durable, and both my phones have taken a couple of short falls (3 ft or so) while in these Lifeproof cases and been entirely undamaged. Overall I'm quite pleased; the case is worth the price and is visibly slimmer and sturdier than the cheap knockoff waterproof phone cases (I had ordered one from elsewhere and sent it back). Additionally, most of the iPhone users with whom I work also have Lifeproof cases, so I guess this is a good choice for farmers!Read full review

I received this case, which was listed as 'new & unused' in a timely manner. It arrived broken. Clearly it had been used before. the small cover for the charging port was missing entirely the rubber-like seal that makes that opening waterproof when its closed. The hinge that that same cover swings open & closed on is bent, and the part of the same cover that attaches to this metal rod that is bent, well, the plastic that is supposed to be holding the cover on the rod is broken, so the whole cover broke off the case in just 1 week's use. This is the worst review I've ever left on ebay.

This is my second case. The last one lasted 1-1/2 years until the side flip switch wore through from using my fingernail to operate it. I'm trying to be more gentle with the switch this time and hope for longer ware. I tried buying cheaper cases and they turned out to be junk from the start.

I used to have the white version of this case but I'm really glad I got this black one, it looks way nicer! I love these lifeproof cases, with the rate at which I drop things I do need a new one about every year but I would much rather buy a new case every year than buy a new phone every year! The case is really durable and feels really solid but not too heavy. I've never deliberately dropped my phone in the ocean with the case on or anything but I never worry about using it in the rain and it's always been well protected :)

It is more difficult for those you are speaking with to hear you and it is more difficult for you to hear them as compared to an Otterbox Defender phone case. The Lifeproof case is waterproof & dustproof, therefore the ear section and the area you speak into are closed up. This naturally affects the sound coming in and going out. Otherwise, the case looks fine and so far has been durable.
