Great bag for my Galaxy S5

I really liked that this bag was very lightweight, yet durable, and very easy to close. Easy to slide my phone in and out (without removing my hard shell phone case). Also liked that the strap could be easily adjusted to hang from my neck or be tightly secured around my wrist. Never had any issue with leaking. What I did have an issue with was frequent inability to get any soft keys on my phone to respond. I have a Samsung Galaxy S5, which I took snorkeling in Grand Cayman. The majority of the time, my screen taps were not registered if I was underwater. Since the point of this bag was for me to take underwater photos, it left me frustrated. It wasn't until the end of my trip that I even thought to see if there was a setting for using any of the physical buttons for taking pictures -- and of course, there was. The volume button on the side. My bad. In practice, it was a little difficult to press the volume key; but not impossible. For taking video, I usually just got recording started while above water (using soft keys), and then went under to film whatever I wanted. For taking still photos underwater -- just be aware if your phone has the option for using physical keys, and be aware that there may be a little extra effort involved when taking those pics.

Pros
  • You can listen to music or make hands-free calls while using this product
Cons
  • The pouch may be difficult to carry on the go
