My friend described the time when his brand new iPhone slipped from his shirt pocket into the bath as he leant over to shampoo his son’s hair as one of those horrifying slow-motion moments. Down, down, down it sank to the bottom of the bath. Gone, gone, gone my friend thought. And he was right – the phone never recovered. He should have ‘life-proofed’ it.
If there was ever an iPhone case made for parents, it’s LifeProof. There’s all sorts of details on the LifeProof website about the ‘seven levels of protection and the four proofs’ the case provides but parents just need to know this: waterproof. Yes, take your iPhone swimming – the LifeProof case features waterproof vents on the microphone and speakers and waterproof seals on the case and ports.
Babyology tried out a LifeProof case on a recent trip to Malaysia and we loved it. It’s also worth noting that LifeProof cases for the iPad will be available soon.
Buy the LifeProof iPhone case online for approximately $76. Accessories such as swimming headphones and belt clips are also available. LifeProof ship to Australia. If you still need more convincing check out the video clip below (note: if you really love your phone, you might find it mildly distressing!).

That is the best thing to ever happen to iphone cant wait for the ipad one whens it coming out
buying now !!!
Mine fell out of my back pocket to swim in the loo
I am absolutely stunned that parents allow such young children ready access to any type of mobile phone. They are not a toy. It is dangerous enough when they accidentally get hold of them. You can buy toy mobile phones with child “designs” on the outside of them and I don’t think they are very expensive.
I have one. They are so good. My 18 months old bring my iPhone to bath at times to distract him when we cut his hair. I bought it from iFamily- an experience store. A iPhone .. Smartphones accesSories shop located at royal randwick shopping centre.. I heard they recently opened at Westfield burwood and Westfield Syd central plaza above Myers food court.. This is in Sydney Australia.
I’ve seen them at Vodafone stores for $79.95! Seems like a small price to pay to protect your phone from little fingers!
