Aquapac Waterproof Mini


First off, the thing is a lot thinner than I had originally imagined looking at the picture to the left. Shipping from the EverythingiCafe website was prompt and it arrived exactly when it was supposed to. When it arrived, I had a bit of trouble getting my iPhone 3G into it. Due to the type of rubber/plastic material used to make the case itself, the inside is very stick and makes it nearly impossible to move your phone in/out of the case. However, I found that putting a bit of paper in between the phone and the case itself when putting the phone in/taking the phone out allows you to slip it and and out freely. I was doubtful at first of the plastic, patented "Aquaclip" that seals the case via a clamp system, but it actually does an admirable job of keeping the water (along with everything else) out. The neck string is slightly elastic, and the LENZFLEX panel in the back does a fine job of leaving your pictures just as they would have been if your phone weren't in a case. Being the stupid teenager that I am, I slipped my phone in(with a fair bit of effort) as soon as it came and rushed to the restroom to fill my sink with iPhone-destroying water and dunk my phone in! Luckily for me, the case did it's job, and well.

So, ultimately the Aquapac Waterproof Mini does what it's supposed to, but, at $30, "Well worth the money" is not the first thing that springs to mind.
