[UPDATE: I HOPE YOU CRETINS ARE HAPPY!]

2 weeks ago, I fell in the pool while cleaning it with my Galaxy S7 in my pocket with no ill effect on the phone. This alone justifes my switch from Apple. So I am not afraid to post from my pool on a hot, late-summer day.

Shout out to Porterville.

I put one of these on my iPhone the day I got it. I’ve dropped the phone from ten feet up onto cement and taken underwater photos and video. No problem.

I thought this was going to be a very different post based on the title. Yes, I’m a child.

I’ve always clad my iPhones in Otterbox Defenders, but I never really thought they would help with water resistance until my gf dropped hers in the (clean) toilet last weekend.

It spent a precautionary two hours in rice, but powered up fine and is running like a top.

I wish my pool didn’t have a hole in the liner.

I’ve been using the (discontinued) Otterbox Preserver, which is fully waterproof. It allows for shenanigans like this

I did try a mil-spec Otterbox whose name I’ve forgotten on my 4s. It was fully waterproof and awesome protection (said it would resist being run over by a humvee), but it totally blocked the microphone and could only be used for actual talking with a Bluetooth headset. I preferred the utility of talking, so I returned to the Defender I’d had before.

I tripped over a rut jogging a trail with the phone in my hand with an otter case. I loaded on the phone screen down and it was fine. They make Awesome cases.

First day in vacation my wife was holding our son (8 months) and he kicked one of our daughter’s toothbrushes into the toilet. Not recoverable
