Waterprof case for droid.

[Alster2005]

I keep seeing these cases that are waterproof. Do they work? Can you even use case with the droid? Can you talk on the phone with the case on? I am going to start doing a lot of kayaking and would love to take my droid with me so I can use the gps, and nav maps. Can anyone one recomend one to me... Thanks:icon_eek:

i personally wouldn't trust one. but i have had bad experiences with "waterproof" anything (except my WP cannon camera...awesome)

you may be able to use this waterproof case, and a couple ziplock bags to "waterproof" it. and the ONLY way i would use one is if they would replace the phone if it got water damage (for legal reasons it would never happen)

I've had great experiences whitewater rafting with my Droid in an Otterbox case. These things really are water-proof - and I mean even when I fell out of the raft and swam for a bit. Now, as far as actually being able to use your phone through the case, I haven't found anything like that - I'm only referring to their "waterproof Otterbox 1000" model cases that you could put anything in (but happen to fit the Droid nicely). But, if you're like me and can't leave home (or dry land) without it, these do keep it dry underwater. I've even snorkelled with my Droid in one of these with no ill effects.

I use a "Drypak" waterproof bag when I go kayaking. Seems to work alright.

The Pelican 1020 Micro Case Series works well. The Droid X will "just" fit. Previously used with BB Storm. I bought mine at a dive shop.

I think the DryPak is your best bet for a waterproof solution - I sell a lot of these and have never had one complaint: Dry Pak Waterproof Pouch for Cell Phones Mobile Devices - it claims right on the package that you can use your phone while it's in the case (talking and hearing). It's half the price of the Aquapac: Waterproof Pouch Case "PDA Size" by Aquapac - 344 - which is also a great waterproof droid case - but since they went "PVC-less" the pouch is kinda "sticky" trying to get slicker objects into it. Especially the iPhone.

Have any questions just shoot me an email.
