Review on Watershot Splash Housing IPhone Blue by Chris Willis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works very well. Tight closure. Clear image.

Pros: Fits snugly on the phone. No leaks to worry about. Tested up to 25 feet with no issues. Transparent camera lens. Contact with the source on a hot day (large temperature difference between air and water) and no fogging of the lenses. The different lenses (wide and flat) are really good. They're easy to swap out. - Ability to see what you are filming/photographing. Cons (rather *note*): I didn't deduct a star for that, as the manufacturer can't fix it. In order to take photos (or use any of the touchscreen functions underwater) you must ensure that ALL air bubbles have been removed from the case before closing it. If there is air between the screen and the case, it will not respond to your touch underwater. When this happened we just stepped above the water, pressed record (video) and dove back. This prevented us from taking photos underwater, but we were able to capture stills from the video. Once out of the water we removed the case and put it back on to make sure all the bubbles were out and everything was working. well underwater (responsive to all touchscreen functions).

Pros
  • Camera and photo
Cons
  • No insurance
