The driSuit iPhone Case Keeps the Device Dry in Wet Conditions
Sarah Moore — June 20, 2012 — Tech
While there are many smartphone cases that prevent one's iPhone from suffering dreaded water damage the driSuit iPhone case stands apart in that it also offers complete functionality of the touchscreen when one is underwater.
Many sleeves prevent phones from being damaged if they're accidentally dropped, or if one dives into a pool with their cell accidentally in tow, but there are few that are designed to actually be used when in the water intentionally.
This sleeve, however, features a thin coating that lets the user check email, text and even make phone calls when submerged -- if they have a mobile carrier that is awesome enough to provide a signal down below, that is.
The company also makes accompanying waterproof headphones so that one's underwater expedition can have music to go along with it.
