Pelican Marine - IP68 Waterproof Phone Pouch (Regular Size) Floating Waterproof Phone Case - Beach Cruise Ship Travel Essentials - Works with All Phones - Detachable Lanyard - Black/Hi-Vis Yellow

These worked better than expected. Bought these for a cruise which included snorkelling, jet ski, and swimming. I was a little skeptical putting my thousand dollar plus cell phone in it, so I tested it first by placing tissue inside, sealing it, and then submerging it is 6 feet of pool water. I held it under for several minutes and splashed around to see if it would hold up to active use. When my test was done I was pleased to find that none of the tissue got a drop of water on it. Perfectly dry inside. I was not so concerned with being able to try to use it while in the bag, but it was a nice feature that I could still snap underwater shots and use the phone/texting feature when not in the water as well. I felt the lanyard was pretty secure and confident it would not just snap off. Putting the phone with a protective case on it in the Pelican Pouch was a little challenging if you have a larger device, however if you removed it from the case before putting in the pouch it was no issue and made installation very easy. I was not worried about not being in my regular protective case, because the Pelican Pouch offered just as much protection. Great product if you are going to be using a phone in or around water.

Bought these for a trip to French Polynesia that involved snorkeling and lots of time in the water. These held up well. Phones went in and out easily and stayed dry. Being able to touch the screen worked well when above water. Underwater was hit or miss, so we ended up starting videos above the surface. These are in line with other Pelican products in terms of quality and durability.

Excellent buy, excellent value! Ease of use: product is extremely easy to use. Camera window is easy to locate which makes this extremely easy to identify how to place your phone into the pouch. Waterproofing: product operates as advertised. My family and I used these pouches in a saltwater bay. They were brought into the water and used to record both in and out of the water, fully submerged at a snorkeling depth of 3 feet or less. Clarity: these pouches do not even appear to be on when taking photos and videos. The clarity is uncanny. Durability: the pouches lasted a full 8 hours of boating along with approximately 2 hours of water time. They do seem like they will last a considerable amount of time. Issues: forward camera is not accessible for facial recognition. Don’t expect to unlock or authorize electronic payment using facial recognition while your phone is in the case. Phone can still be unlocked using your alternative method. Additionally, the side button can be challenging to manipulate. This can pose an issue for those who use the side buttons to take photos or videos, to lock the phone, or for other uses. I do not consider this a problem as I bought these pouches for their waterproof and floating properties. In these categories, the pouches are excellent! Money well spent!

Bought this to use while snorkeling in Hawaii. Loved it - with 2 exceptions. It took great pics & videos UNLESS I tried to start a video or take a pic underwater…then the buttons wouldn’t work. I had to surface, start the video, then go below the surface and hope it kept going. Several times it stopped without me pushing a button so that was very frustrating. I missed some great shots for this reason. The 2nd thing is something I loved/hated. If I’m just walking around. The lanyard length is great. If I want to extend my arms (below water or to take a selfie with my husband) then the lanyard is much too short. I wish it was adjustable. That said, I loved the clip that adjusted so I could tighten it and make it less likely to slip off my head while snorkeling. I trust Pelican products so if I need to buy one again, I will - I trust it to keep my phone safe & dry and that’s exactly what it did for nearly 2 weeks in paradise.

My IPhone stayed dry and protected at the waterpark, Pool and beach. It’s a good quality case. However though my Iphone 17 Max Pro fits inside, when taking video or pics, the camera is partially covered creating a Black shadow in my videos.

I was on the fence but really glad I bought this at the last minute. It fits the pixel 9 pro even with a phone case already on the phone. Kept both phones dry. It floats and the phones did not overheat. It can take sharp photos underwater but depends how deep the water is, it is not consistent underwater, it can be hard to press the button underwater. Best to use a timer for underwater shots.

Works Great!. The bright green is gonna be me see it. No more wet or dirty phone at work

For the cost, I was expecting this to last a bit longer than one and a half snorkels. Long story short, I returned it. First, the order didn't arrive, but I really wanted it for the snorkeling and animals so I had a second sent. I tested it in the sink for about 45 minutes to an hour before I left for my trip, it was super dry and promising. Even the float was good, I had to weigh it down to test. We'll discover this floating is pretty much the only good thing about it. Took it on my trip and it worked okay on the first snorkel, but the underwater touch sensitivity was non-existent. Had to start videos above water, which is fine, but since the screen doesn't work, photos are down to the side buttons, which is probably where it started to fail- the side seams. Still, no major issues on that first snorkel, which was maybe an hour and no depth longer than the lanyard (which is maybe a foot from your face around your neck). Took it on the second snorkel the next day. Got a pretty good view of the turtles. Got a manta. Then the swim back towards the boat for the next jump in, the inside started fogging. We were barely in the water half an hour. Yes, I made sure to squeeze extra air out. Yes, I made sure the locks were secured with nothing in the way. Yes, I made sure the entire outside was dry before opening it to find droplets inside. Basically, for $27, I wanted to be able to jump in again without worrying it would fill up with sea water. But at least the pictures were pretty clear- that's the only reason for the stars it did get
