Expensive but good
Quite expensive for a phone case but have used this brand for many years ( originally recommended to me by Military personnel) keeps the phone safe even when dropped and when falling out of back pocket into the toilet! (As long as all ports closed)

Dust!!!
Having recently purchased an iPhone 14 pro I did some research into the best cases for construction and commercial environments as I’m an electrical engineer who is on site a lot. This case stood out to me and as it was discounted ten pounds I coughed up the high price tag.The first complaint I have is the packaging of the case and supplied accessories. Due to the fact that this case boasts an IP68 waterproof rating the case comes with a screen protector. This would be no issue for some it would be a plus, however due to the fact that all that comes with the case is a small advice note and a microfibre cloth there is no way of applying this case dust free. I realise to many this isn’t such a big deal but when the case cost £70 you would expect at least something to tackle this problem. My advice would be to GET SOMEONE ELSE TO FIT THIS FOR YOU.My second complaint is the durability. This is advertised as having 5x military standard drop test. I would highly doubt this as upon delivery of my first case there was a small crack in the camera protector. This firstly invalidates the IP rating and also could lead to photos being poor. I realise this most likely originated from delivery but if a £70 case can’t survive a simple delivery how will it survive a military standard drop test.My third complaint is looks and feel. This case may be tougher than most but it is certainly not pretty. Now I’m aware this case is not meant to be pretty, and I’m also aware it would take a vary skilled designer to make any iPhone 14 pro pretty but still they could have made it feel premium. The best feel there is is the silicone around the top edge of the phone. The rest feels very tacky and cheap. Whilst the recycled plastic maybe sustainable it certainly isn’t nice. Also be aware SCRATCHES APPEAR VERY EASILY.To conclude whilst I am yet to see whether this case will stand the test of time I would probably not purchase this case again. I think the price is far too high for what you get and that it doesn’t live up to promises.

Stands the test of long submersion!
I took my phone with me on a paddle board and used a third party elasticated holder to put it round my neck. The holder pinged off just minutes into my paddling and I watched my phone bounce off the board and into the sea! I searched for hours for my phone and in a massive streak of luck the outgoing tide revealed it 4 hours later with a fully working phone, with just a tiny splash of water inside the case!!Downsides of this case are that there is a tiny bit of plastic that you could use for a lanyard, but a past case demonstrated that this wasn’t 100% secure as the lanyard came out (hence the 3rd party holder this time).I would love for OtterBox to improve this!Also it is hard to close if you have a screen protector on, and I would recommend taking it off if you can.

Otterbox Fre Case for IPhone 15
Only had this case for 1 month but I am happy with it. It has protected my phone when I accidentally drop it. Only down fall is with it being waterproof tight people tend to struggle to hear me properly when on a phone call, but talking a bit louder helps. Other than that I would recommend it, the quality is really good and the built in screen/camera protecter help keep my phone scratch resistant. Reading other reviews I haven’t had a problem with the screen/camera protecters getting scratched. Time will tell. I also have no problems tapping the screen through it either. Would recommend from experience not having a glass screen protected on underneath as this makes it harder to tap the screen. Fits great in my pockets and isn’t bulky. The appearance of the case is nice, I went for the green and yellow for a change.

Great case
It is easy to fit. You test for waterproofing before you fit to phone. Which is a good idea as if it is not you can return it for another one.Only thing I have found is the screen scratches.

Good but now not fit for use
I’ve had this a few months now, Whilst this product has been great for our holiday, protecting in the pool and on the beach it has now become blurry on the plastic screens that cover the cameras so all photos are really blurry, I’m now having to remove the case each time I want to take a photo, and it’s not the easiest case to remove! . I’ve checked the seal and it isn’t letting in water it seems a problem with the actual protective screen.Photos show a bottle taken with the case on and without to illustrate the problem

OVERPRICED C**P! ABSOLUTE RUBBISH PRODUCT! PLEASE READ BEFORE WASTING YOUR MONEY!
Hmmm…. Originally sold at £79.99 now £49.99. I wonder why?! Because this case and the company are a joke.I bought this for my new iPhone 14 pro after seeing it had a lifetime warranty. My friend had one and had dropped it in the sea and it survived so I thought that’s let’s try it.My first issue is the instructions to use a 5p coin to open the case. This causes damage to the case as shown in the photo! So I had to cover the coin to open the case to avoid further damage.I have dropped the phone a few times and the damage is immediate to the case. I have had numerous cheaper cases in the past and they have never got damaged so quickly.I emailed OTTERBOX several times about these issues and to date they have NEVER acknowledged nor replied.The final straw was when I realised when taking photos how grainy and poor quality they were coming out so I tried gently cleaning the camera cover. I even tried cleaning the inside of the case in case that was dirty. The photos clearly show the cover is badly damaged. Now I am not heavy handed with anything and treat my phone extremely carefully so what is this all about??My friend who has the same cover has also had to have a replacement case from Amazon! Not me! I will NEVER part with a ludicrous amount of money for a phone cover again.I gave up contacting Otterbox and contacted Amazon directly who without hesitation have authorised a return and refund.This is an overpriced rubbish case!

Great Case
I have been a LifeProof fan for years. Now that OtterBox has taken over, I was a bit concerned but, I can honestly say there is nothing to worry about. The quality and craftsmanship is spot on LifeProof! The color is great and I know my iPhone pro is fully protected!
