I was the first to introduce the LifeProof case to this forum. It served well... until it didn't. My iPhone 4 survived everything that I could throw at it in its LifeProof case until I purposely took it underwater to use as a camera in Hawaii.

Apparently these cases have a lifespan and mine had reached the end. The case had developed a small crack which quickly allowed water to drown my phone. LifeProof support told me that this was my fault because I did not check the case ahead of time to determine if there were any leaks. How does one do that?

I used the case in one of the ways that LifeProof promotes in their advertising. If a product is hyped for a particular application but fails when used for that application, the product is not worthy of consideration.

Put me down as no longer being a LifeProof fan.
