Save yourself a trip to the Genius Bar and protect that new iPhone with one of these waterproof cases.

 

Joto Waterproof Bag

Ok, so it’s not a case, it’s a bag. Most people aren’t hanging around large bodies of water most of the time, making this waterproof bag a handy but temporary solution to waterproofing your iPhone.

 

Lunatik Aquatik

These colorful cases have a slim profile and score an IP68 rating, allowing users to submerge their phone in up to three feet of water for 30 minutes.

 

 

Seidio Obex

It’s on the bulky side, but the Obex is guaranteed to keep your phone waterproof, in addition to surviving drops from up to six feet thanks to a combination of polycarbonate and thermoplastic silicone vulcanizate.

 

 

Lifeproof Nuud

This popular brand now offers their Nuud case for the iPhone 6, featuring an open front side that stays waterproof with a rubber membrane around the screen’s edge, balancing protection with usability.

 

 

Dog & Bone Wetsuit Waterproof

This IP68-rated case also exceeds military drop test standards, surviving falls from two meters, providing protection at a price much cheaper than other waterproof cases.

 

Catalyst Waterproof Case

Considered to be one of the best, the Catalyst can survive up to five meters of submersion, while maintaining the ability to use touch ID and buttons.
