The BeachBuoy Waterproof case is a case designed for the more adventurous among us, or the more holiday savvy among us, whichever way you look at it. Giving your iPhone 6 the protection from water, sea, sun, snow or sand, this gives you all the protection from the elements while giving you full access to your touch screen.

Features:

  • Touch Screen Access
  • For water, snow, sand and sticky fingers
  • 100% waterproof up to 5m
  • British Standards Institute IP58 approved
  • Compatible with devices measuring up to 147 x 72 x 10mm
  • Dimensions: 194 x 130mm
  • Lifetime Exchange Warranty

How does it secure my phone?

The secret to this is similar to the original BeachBuoy case we tried back in the day, with a three step fold and seal mechanism. This ensures that even if you are a little careless in folding it up, the extra layers of protection should keep your phone secure. Of course, I DO NOT RECOMMEND being careless, and I am sure, neither do Proporta!

How well does it fit the phone?

It provides a bit of a snug fit, which isn’t that bad for such a device. You don’t really want your device flapping about.

What about port access while in the case?

Nope. None of that. And you do not want to be accessing them while your device is submerged. However, if you have an iPhone, you can easily press the Home button. The volume/power keys are a bit more difficult to access. This means that while you are able to also use the same device for other phones, phones which do not have the ‘knock to wake up’ feature will probably struggle a bit.

Is this the device I need to make me ready for the beach?

Yes. Well. This makes your device ready for the beach. You must use sunblock.

Verdict

If you are the type to be needing to access your phone while you’re on the beach, look no further. Same goes for poolside adventures, as well as snowy ones!
