Dirtproof, waterproof, snowproof
and shockproof!

iPhone cases come in all shapes, colours, sizes and smells. But how much protection do they offer your Apple gadget? Generally you can either choose a slim and stylish one that protects your mobile from scuffs and scratches; or you can choose a chunky and cumbersome one that makes your iPhone virtually bombproof. Those are the rules. And for years iPhone cases (and users) have abided by them. But we’ve found a case that’s set to change all that.

Three years in the making, with over $1.2 million spent on research and development, the Lifeproof for iPhone not only protects your mobile from drops, knocks, splashes and just about everything; it also enhances the functions of your iPhone. And all this while adding a mere 1.3mm to your precious Apple gadget.


Keep it dirt-free		Great for holidays		Underwater fun

Water-tight screw-in headphone

Double AR-coated optical glass (yes, that stuff) protects your camera lens for crystal clear photos. And the delicate touchscreen is covered by a tough, barely visible, clear film; providing just the same functionality as the bare touchscreen. In fact, the only difference with the Lifeproof fitted is that you can flick through your photos, update your Facebook status and play Angry Birds from the bottom of the swimming pool. Sounds fun!

Hatch for ease of charging

And speaking of sounds, the ingenious case will also convert the back of your iPhone into a miniature subwoofer, to add depth to your music and audio clips. Unless of course you’re underwater.

Super slim protection for your iPhone 4/4S

Designed by the people behind black-box flight recorder technology and tested to military specifications, the Lifeproof for iPhone is perfect for anyone who has ever dropped, kicked, squashed, splashed, thrown or drowned their mobile; but can’t bear the idea of hiding Apple’s gorgeous design in a chunky case. So... that’s all of us then.

Colours available (L-R): Black, White, Pink and Purple.... plus Bike Mount accessory

Now you can strap your Lifeproof to your body and feel like a cyborg style extreme machine! This well-padded Arm Band will hold your phone securely while still allowing easy access to all buttons and features. The premium high impact materials mean that you get a lightweight accessory that will stand up to anything life can throw at you.

Fits the Lifeproof case perfectly

Ideal for most sports and activities

It won't weigh you down

How easy is it to remove the phone once it's in the cover? I regularly use my phone as a satnav and have to remove it from the slimmest covers to sit it in the cradle. I'm concerned it might be really fiddly to do.
David, Wolverhampton - 4th May 2012

Firebox says: Heya, its a bit fiddly, but takes no more than 30-40 seconds

I replaced my Griffin case with the Lifeproof, just because every time I tied my boot laces with the phone in my trouser pocket it went to voice dial. Was a little miffed that the Lifeproof does the same thing. It has saved my phone, due to being a welder, grinding dust has a habit of finding magnets. With a quick bang on the workbench the dust just falls out of the bottom. Cyber clean putty is also used. Crashed my bike last week with the phone secured on the handle bars. No damage to the phone case or the mount. Still stings a bit in the shower for me though. Great product when will other versions for other phones and iPad be available?
Scott Ainsworth, Fairford Leys Aylesbury - 29th April 2012

Ive been put off getting one of these by some of the reviews :( the case doesn't let you use standard iphone chargers as they don't fit through the case, only the cut back one's do and even thats awkward to get in and out...is this true?????
Marcus, Stamford - 28th April 2012

Firebox says: Hi, As far as we are aware any new apple branded charges should work (ie the iPod ones may be a little chunky)

The case itself is very good. Does exactly what it says. The only problem I had was with the headphone connector, the wires within it broke within a week of being given the case. This is a huge problem if you listen to music a lot. Another thing is if the speaker is too loud it makes people's voices crackle slightly. Overall it's a good case, the problems may have only been to my item not every one.
Josh, England - 16th April 2012

Firebox says: Great to hear, but please do give us a shout about the headphone connector on info@firebox.com

Am I offered any guarantee with this cases waterproof capabilities? Just say I use it in a pool and water somehow finds its way in (water has a habit of this) will I be offered a new iphone? Or is there fine print that covers this company?
Ravi, UK - 11th April 2012

Firebox says: Hi Ravi, the manufacturers provide a 365 day Warranty - please note that you have to validate this with them (details of how to do so come with the product).

These cases are brilliant I have had mine shipped from the states prior to firebox stocking them, witch did cost a lot in shipping fees!! It has saved my phone many a time when on the beach and also drunken nights out from drops and people disbelieving its waterproofness which has to tested ... in pints???!! the main feature is that when it comes to upgrading in the future the phone will be all shinny and new! I also have the Bike case which leaves you not worrying when riding in the rain, or flying over the handle bars as it locks the phone firmly in. The size of the clamp easily fits on to any bike and could easily fit a motorbike handle bars also. Will you be getting the Arm Band in???? so I can lissen to my tunes when out on the water or running???
Nik, Fareham - 3rd April 2012

Hmm think I've been had here... 60 squid for a plastic frame and bit of cling film :0 talk about day light robbery! Seriously though, the case might not add much size but the buttons stick out a mile. And the enhanced subwoofer, did they run out of features so started pretending!? It makes No sound difference! Overall... Expensive piece of flexible plastic that might or might not be waterproof, could protect your phone, and doesn't improve sound! Oh and you have to carry a dock extender and headphone extender if you wish o actually use you phone!
Dave, West Mods - 2nd April 2012

Firebox says: Hi Dave, I am sorry your not completely happy with it, please feel free to give us a shout on info@firebox.com if you want to return it for a hassle free refund

When will the black case be available?
Barry, Dublin - 31st March 2012

Firebox says: We hope to have them within the next 2 weeks!

Is this the gen 1 or gen 2?
Nick, Dudley - 27th March 2012

Firebox says: Hi Nick, this is a 2nd generation case

So the question as been asked but not answered, will this work with the kogeto dot? Because I want both... Please answer!!
Tom, Hawkinge - 25th March 2012

Firebox says: Unfortunately the two are not compatible, sorry about that!
