Looks like cool stuff, but that's still a gamble. Cell phones are not cheap to replace.

Watch the videos and you'll understand. It's more a precaution measure. The Lifeproof box for $80 is a much more sure method.

Yes, there are less expensive alternatives. I just think the technology is pretty slick. Wonder if they could put it on fishing reels.

For what it's worth I use this.

You can talk on it and have full features of the phone available. It has loop where you can attach a line. Which came in handy one day as I dragged it for who knows how many miles one day. Picked it up out of the water as I was loading up the truck at the ramp.

Pictures are so so and might work for a tourney, but not much more. I throw in some silica baggies for humidity.

Would consider the liquid stuff if the phone were mine, but it's corporate.

Interesting. I think I will stick with my life proof case and store my phone in a waterproof case.

There's an ad on one if these football games for a stood phone that has 'nano waterproofing' of the interior.

Might be nice if all the manufacturers did it on all their phones - and gave a guarantee

That makes even more sense Rik. I wouldn't test it out, but it would give some peace of mind.

You have to have the phone in order for the cool blue tooth ear decoration to work.

Its intresting, but it does not seam like they have a guarantee, witch worries me. I get a new phone in a few months. I might send it off.
