I have been wanting this case for a while and a couple months ago I got lucky and found an awesome deal on a Facebook sales group. Cost me $50 for a brand new case! I couldn't pass it up, I've been using an Otter Box case and it just doesn't give me the kind of protection a need. I just wanted to tell people that this case is pretty awesome in as few words as possible.

Speaker sound quality is fine. I don't feel like I'm having any issues hearing callers. I haven't had anyone complain that I sound like I'm in a tunnel when I'm talking.

The keyboard is responsive, even if the screen gets wet from rain or splashes.
I only wish that the case was more rubberized, I don't feel like the case absorbs as much shock from being dropped like the Otter Box case does.

Over all It is great at keeping water out. As soon as I got the case on and closed up, I immediately threw it in the bath with my daughter. I left it there for a while and I found no leaks when I took it out of the water.
I'm going to get some velcro and make a detachable  float for the case so it doesn't sink if I ever drop it while on the water. I use this phone to take pictures for AOTY...well that is the plan. I haven't submitted a fish yet this year.

I hope this short review helps anyone looking for a good case.

I have the life proof for my iPhone 5. In short, I couldn't live without it!!! I fish in the rain while streaming pandora.  At work I don't think twice about touching the screen with dirty or oily fingers. A quick bath in the sink takes care of any dirt, grime, oil, or even bait. Don't worry about drops, I drop mine all the time. Good choice and thank you for sharing.

If anyone is looking at waterproof cases, they owe it to themselves to check out and compare with the Seidio Obex for either Iphone or the S4.  I have both and they are very good cases. But to me the Obex is by far the winner in quality and engineering.
