There are many options available for an iPhone 4/4S case, and it can be difficult to decide which one to choose. in weighing the options, the most important factor to consider is how well a case will protect your phone – wherever you go and whatever you do. whether you are looking for a case for everyday use or planning to take your phone underwater, on a ski slope, or in a sand dune, the LifeProof iPhone 4/4S case should be seriously considered.

You may wonder whether you really need a protective case for your iPhone 4 or 4S. Recent research is showing that the answer is yes, even if you don’t plan to snorkel with your phone. The iPhone 4 and 4S are championed as using gorilla glass, but do not think that your iPhone 4 or 4S is more durable than earlier models or that it does not need to be protected. The 4 and 4S have more than twice the glass surface area as earlier iPhone models and, according to the research so far, the glass seems to be even more susceptible to damage.
Square Trade, a third-party hardware warranty company, has reported an increase of 82% in screen damage claims for the iPhone 4 and 4S in the first 4 months of ownership, as compared with the iPhone 3GS. The company has stated that it expects to receive two times as many claims for broken iPhone 4s each year as compared to the 3GS.
What this means to the consumer is that the iPhone 4 and 4S require a tough protective case even for everyday use.
LifeProof developed and designed its iPhone case to military specifications. The result is the highest protection rating available – IP 68. The IP scale is an international rating scale that measures the level of sealing effectiveness of an enclosure against intrusion from different types of foreign materials. IP 68 means that the LifeProof iPhone case enclosure makes your phone dust tight and waterproof up to 6.6 feet under water. with the case on, dust, dirt, and sand are unable to scratch your screen and cause it to shatter, and water or other liquids cannot get inside.
In addition, the LifeProof iPhone case offers the highest amount of shock and impact protection available in an iPhone case. LifeProof tests included dropping the iPhone 4 and 4S from a height of 6.6 feet onto concrete. The screen protector is scratch resistant and the case is made out of a tough polycarbonate.
LifeProof’s case comes with a General use Headphone Adapter, and the LifeProof WaterProof Headphone Adapter is optional. purchase the adapter, and you can listen to music with your own waterproof headphones underwater.
