Iphone Waterproof Case

[thatotakugalaxy]

Alrighty, So i cannot afford a waterproof camera By far, reasoning being they cost hundreds to THOUSANDS of dollars, i have about 300 dollars saved up to get a case for my phone, so i thought 'hey! i should just get a waterproof case!' and so heres what i've got

its an Iphone 6S, no screen protection or anything, its pretty much brand new.

i need a waterproof case or bag i can take under 7-8 feet. i heard bags cause the video to be blurry, so idk about doing a bag... anyway, tell me what your opinions are!

It has to be under $100
it doesnt matter what it looks like, as long as i can still fit it in my pocket
i have a otterbox i can switch it out with, so if i do a case for water only and a case for dry land, thats good with me.

That the camera I use. My is over 4 years old and it takes amazing pictures. It's not the fastest camera but look at the quality and you don't have to risk your phone. 40917

You're welcome. I know those weren't my best pictures but it was the quickest ones I could find to give you an example. It does fit your budget when you find those camera used.

welp.. i asked my mother and she said not to order anything from ebay, she wont let me ;-; She said i can use amazon and aliexpress... rip..

[Slim]

On ebay they go as low as $40. I hope she realizes that for a slightly lesser quality. Amazon has a used one for about $120.00. Otherwise she going to be paying the same or equal on amazon for a lifeproof case.

Jeez... its me paying btw XD she doesnt need it, but my mom monitors my paypal and bank account, so she said so

Awesome suggestion, and way less than GoPro.
Aliexpress? But eBay is much more reliable and has buyer protections... Amazon is a good site but like Slim said its more expensive.

My action cam is from the brand guardo, great quality and way cheeper then go pro, I made this video with it : https://youtu.be/hW79cFkjpvg

Did you have a filter on it? Are there cameras for underwater that don't need filters?

Aliexpress has buyer protection. Weird that she isn't ok with ebay though.

Gearbest has a lot of affordable waterproof cameras, and some of them are on sale right now! Gearbest is reliable and has great customer service - I'm currently writing up reviews for an underwater mp3 player and waterproof eyeshadow they sent me to test 😊

Here's the link to their waterproof camera selection:

If you want to go through Amazon, I bought a waterproof camera comparable to go pro for a little over $100. It's called the akaso ek7000. I took it to Hawaii earlier this month and it was amazing.

Yep! I'm still not even sure what some of them do 😂😅

If you have a dive shop in your area you could go in and they usually have a good selection of waterproof cases for cell phones and for cameras. :)

I got a Lightdow waterproof action camera (off brand goPro basically) for $40 off amazon. I have only used it on land and briefly in a pool so far, but I have been very happy with the results. I am taking it with me to the bahamas in less than two weeks too (only 11 days! Woohoo!) And can report back how it does when skim diving there :)

I personally would not recommend using a waterproof case on a phone for underwater filming because, should the case break or malfunction, you have to buy a whole new phone. That would be significantly more expensive than just an underwater camera.

I have personally used Lifeproof cases underwater, last one I bought was $80 and it was amazing.

Ah, alrighty! do you have a link to the one you got?

I had one for my iPhone 5 but they have it for 6S too.
