About this item
- Interior ribbed bed provides a snug fit for the device and absorbs shock. Built-in screen protector prevents scratches to glass display, resists fingerprints and maintains the waterproof seal.
- Glass camera covering resists scratches while preserving clear and precise images. Exterior material, made of the same incredibly strong plastic used in hammers and industrial tools, withstands 2 tons of crushing force.
- Durable zinc alloy latches securely fasten the case together to maintain a waterproof seal while still allowing for easy opening.
- Port is protected by a silicone plug that acts as a shield for particle intrusion while allowing easy opening access.(case is not waterproof when charging port or headphone jack are in use.)
- Hinged silicone cover keeps water and particles from entering charging port and opens for easy charging access without removing the case (case is not waterproof when charging port or headphone jack are in use.)

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

- Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2014I purchased this case for the purpose of keeping out sand and dirt at the beach as well as using by the pool. I don't intend to use this case while swimming, so I can't comment on whether or not it is waterproof for swimming.
What I like:
1.) All of the ports are easily accessible and there is no adapter needed in order to plug in headphones/speaker or power adapter.
2.) The phone fits into the case easily and it is very easy to take the phone out when you don't need so much protection. You can easily put your phone into this case to go to the beach, and take it out in seconds when you want a slimmer case.
3.) The case is very solid and looks like nothing can damage your phone.
4.) Looks cool, nice colors.
What I don't like:
1.) It is super bulky. The metal clasps are solid, but heavy. Not for someone looking for something slim if you're planning on leaving it on all the time.
2.) Sometimes it takes a little extra effort to text or use the keyboard. Its not as responsive as when the phone screen is bare.
Bottom line: I would definitely recommend this case for anyone who wants a solid and waterproof case. I like how the phone slides easily out of the case for when I don't need the extra protection.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2015Best iPhone 5 case ever!!! I've used this case for almost 3 years.it says that it's waterproof up to 6.6 ft but I took my phone snorkeling with my mother when she visited me here in Hawaii, and I accidentally dropped my phone about 20-25 feet and it took me about 20 minutes to get it. I was quite tired lol.
My brother had this case before me and was telling me about the crush proofness. Needless to say I didn’t believe him. So we took his phone outside and he had me drive my car over his phone. Sure enough the phone survived. It might have been a different story if it was screen down but none the less I was amazed!!!
I recently upgraded to the iPhone se and it fits perfect. It did seam that the latches were a little bit tighter but I had no issues closing it. The only downside is that with the se is that I can not use the fingerprint scanner but I had an iPhone 5 last so it doesn't really bother me that much. The volume is a little muffled as well and as time goes on the screen tends to get clogged and it is a bit of a pain to clean but a toothbrush and just some water usually works just fine.
This case will keep your phone looking brand new!
Im attaching a couple pictures of my iPhone se in the case to show that it does indeed fit. The lines you see on the back of the phone is from the rubber on the inside and comes off with ease.

- Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2013I have used an OtterBox Defender since I first received my iPhone 5 late last year. I am now getting ready to spend quite a bit of time on the water and outdoors in rugged terrain. The Defender has done the job thus far, but I really wanted the added Water Proof capability but didn't care for the other products on the market. This new Armor Series Case is just what I was trying to find. It is much easier to put the iPhone in the Case then my Defender or other cases I have used. You just basically open the Case and drop the phone in and then close the Case and lock two latches.
All iPhone buttons work as well as they do without a case. The Touch Screen also appears to function just as well as if I was right on the iPhone Glass. The Ear Phone connection and the Charger Port each have a small door with an o-ring ...thus the ensuring Water Proof capability. The case is a little larger than the OtterBox Defender but once your iPhone is in the Armor Series case and not being held directly next to a Defender Series, you will not really notice any difference in use.
All Phone functions, Talk, Ringing, Vibrate, etc. appear to act just like they did without the case.
This is really a nice case for those that want Total Protection for their Cell Phone.
UPDATE: I have had this case for a couple of months now and am so pleased with it, that I am going to continue to use it full-time. I had purchased this case for use when I spend extended time around the woods and the lake. I have had a number of iPhone users make very positive comments on the case and the materials used in it and they are upgrading to this case. I like not worrying about my phone at all. This case is GREAT!

1.0 out of 5 stars Décevant .....
Coque non étanche... Essais avec un essuis tout (avant de mettre le téléphone) dans 10 cm d'eau. Sans problème..... Avec le téléphone à l'intérieur ,la coque ne se ferme pas hermermetiquement et laisse passer l'eau. (En prenant soin de bien suivre la notice lors de l'installion du téléphone.).
Moi qui voulais prendre des photos sous l'eau pendant mes vacances .... C'est louper!!!
Sinôn réactivités du tactile correct malgres la coque.Vraiment dommage!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Tolle Schutzbox für mein Iphone 5s
Nachdem mir bei einem Segeltörn in einer Sturmfront mein Iphone abgesoffen war und ich nach Erhalt eines neuen Iphone keine Risiken mehr eingehen wollte, schaute ich mich im Netz um und fand diese Otterbox der Armor Series Waterproof.
Da meine Erfahrungen mit den Otterboxen bis dahin eher gemischt waren, war ich zunächst skeptisch, aber einige Clips auf Youtube stimmten mich optimistisch und so bestellte ich die Box.
Nach Ausgiebigen Tests, sowohl was das Hinfallen und Nasswerden anbelangt kann ich sagen, dass ich vollauf zufrieden bin mit meinem Kauf. Die Box ist stabil, man kann alle Funktionen des Iphone ohne Einschränkung nutzen und auch die Telefonie ist was die Sprachqualität anbelangt nicht eingeschränkt.
Einzig die Größe des Mobiltelefone wächst beträchtlich, aber das weiss man ja vorher.
Ich empfehle die Box jederzeit und vor allem würde ich sie wieder kaufen, deshalb auch 5 Sterne von mir

3.0 out of 5 stars 's ok.
Does what it says on the tin. Nightmare to get open. Also inside bit to turn phone onto loud / silent was broken so had to faff around doing it the difficult way.
