Review on LifeProof FRĒ SERIES Waterproof Case For IPhone 11 Pro Max - FIRE SKY (BLUEBIRD/TANGERINE) by Eathan Wilson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Thinner, there may be problems with the bubble effect, the rubber seal on the back of the case may fall out

So I already bought the black version of this case which is rubbish. Bubbles are bubbling all over the screen and the case seems difficult to close. I ordered this one as it sold for almost half what I paid for the black one and LifeProof will send me a replacement for the black one I bought from them. .BYE, this case (not sure if it's because it's a different color if I'm lucky, or some magic), but this case is way better. It APPEARS to seal completely as far as I can tell, and while I have SOME of the bubbles/water effect, it is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa it was it was it that it was sealed completely and although I have SOME of the bubbles/water effect that I can say. The only real downside right now is that the rubber strap, which I think is a seal or something, is on the back of the case and just sits inside the box. It took me about 15 minutes to get it installed on the back of the case, but I'm not entirely sure (but I hope) that it stayed intact when I put the back on - if it didn't then I did ' I suspect the waterproofing is gone, but I don't want to keep uninstalling and reinstalling just to find out. My replacement for my original case will arrive next week and I can see if it's any better than my first one but I'm starting to think the issues could be mostly related to the black cases as they were the first ones available and possibly one bad had batch - most of the negative reviews i saw were for them. Edit - after a while the bubble/water effect is back - HOWEVER it's still, at least not as bad as the previous one.

Pros
  • FRĒ: Built-in scratch protection is hardly noticeable visually and haptically; Full access to buttons and controls - USB charging and syncing
Cons
  • Weak kit
