Otterbox Has Done it This Time

From what Otterboxclaims you can now have a a completely sealed iPhone case. To me that means if I'm swimming I can now create underwater stills and movies. That is gonna sell a lot of Otterbox cases. Here is their official line. Actually it's good down to 6.6' of water depth so maybe no diving.

• Two-piece case with snap assembly for easy installation
• Internal foam cushions device and holds it in place inside the case
• Includes an adjustable lanyard for convenient carrying and tethering
• Waterproof: fully submergible up to 6.6 ft. (2 m) for 30 minutes (IP-X8)
• Drop proof: protects device from drops up to 6.6 ft. (2 m)
• Dust proof: blocks entry of dust and debris particles (IP-6X)

The other feature is there is as you can see above, a layer of internal foam for drop protection, as is the case with many of the Otterbox cases. There simply is no other way to go. I'll admit, I don't like having to shell out $90 for a case, but I look at it as an insurance policy on an expensive piece of my technological arsenal.  Snap one up before you drop yours in the bathtub.

And here is a video from Tim Grey of an iPhone5 underwater using a waterproof case.
