LifeProof is considered to be the “go-to” when on the hunt waterproof cases to protect your iPhone in unfortunate extreme weather situations. The LifeProof iPhone 4S case was a favorite to many geeks! The $80 Fre case for iPhone 5 is largely based with the same aspects of the iPhone 4S case with a few notable differences.
LifeProof boosts an impressive 30 minutes of under water submissive without damage. Like I previously stated, I’m a klutz so I am completely ecstatic about the Fre case meeting military standards in surviving impacts, shock and even your real-life scenario, accidental drops of as high as 6.6ft (2 meters). Jesus wanted me to have this! lol
The Lifeproof Fre case also is overall a comfortable case to hold despite its robust and overly protective design. This aspect is especially important for me…a girl with small hands and tons of gadgets! The shock absorbing rubber provides a great grip when holding the iPhone in the hand, doubling as a rubber bumper that protects both outside and inside. I expected the buttons to be hard to press, but case integrated buttons are all quite easy to press. Even the flip to silent switch works great.
Overall I definitely think this is something that should be a every klutz phone line up. I’ve had in one my phone since the storms being in Chicago and have not once tired of it. It is solid for the $80 price.
