I finally bought this case for my upcoming honeymoon to Jamaica, but I have already started to use it on many adventures! I wore it while kayaking and it was the first time I wasn’t uneasy about possibly falling out of the kayak and ruining my phone. I also used it during a river tubing trip and was able to get so many cute photos through the pouch! The touch screen works surprisingly well too! My only complaint (which is definitely not a big deal) is that when it’s super sunny out, the sunlight naturally reflects off the plastic, making it hard to see your phone screen. It fits any phone up to 100mm x 170mm (or about 3.9 inches x 6.7 inches). It’s also a great fix for keeping out sand and dirt!

Promising review: “I bought two cases, one for my Galaxy S7 Edge and one for my girlfriend’s Moto Z, for our trip to Kauai last week. I was a little skeptical when I received it…. it was so inexpensive, and so simple, that I wasn’t sure it was going to work well. My first test was to put a piece of paper into the case and submerge it… and to my surprise, it stayed totally dry! Fast forward to Kauai, and we put these cases through the test! From kayaking, to hiking, to playing in the waves at the beach, this case was phenomenal! I could not believe I was swimming in rivers, jumping off of waterfalls, and body surfing, with an $800 phone around my neck! Picture quality was absolutely perfect! Sound quality on recordings was very good, but not perfect. And most importantly, my phone was safe the entire time. I was even able to take phone calls from the ocean, although sound quality during a call did suffer. We also used the cases while hiking through muddy a muddy rain forest, and on an extremely dusty ATV tour. Every time, the phones came out perfectly dry and clean, and we got amazing photo’s and video.” —Amazon customer
