JOTO Universal Waterproof Cellphone Underwater Reviews Summary

Waterproofing Effectiveness

Pros:

• "I was able to take many cool videos with my iPhone while on a snorkeling tour in Costa Rica. My phone stayed dry."
• "I bought these for my parents trip to Mexico and they work. Not a drop!"
• "I took these on my cruise and they were 100% waterproof."
• "Case is waterproof, used it at ocean, in pool and lazy river. Photos came out nice and clear and no sand getting on phone."
• "Used these while snorkeling on our honeymoon and they worked great! We were able to capture a lot of cool under water photos and videos."
• "I purchased these Universal Size Waterproof Case Dry Bags for a trip to Volcano Bay water park, hoping to keep my iPhone 14 Pro Max and other valuables dry."
• "The performance on this thing is amazing. My phone had no problems in the water."
• "I have a Samsung S23+ with a thin protective case. With the case my phone didn't fit. If I took the case off it barely fit but I had to stretch this a little bit."

Cons:

• "This does get the job done for sure! I give it 4 stars though because with a case on the product itself doesn't fit or it's extremley tight."
• "The only thing is the iPhone phone touch screen doesn’t work with these while underwater so you have to use the side buttons."
• "The touch screen doesn't work when it leaks. Once water gets in, it was impossible to use the phone."
• "Your product had a catastrophic failure and my college kid’s phone was destroyed when it fell into the water even though it was closed up as directed in your pouch."
• "Took this on a tubing trip so i could take photos and not worry about my phone. Water definitely seeped in."
• "The package is watertight for the most part, although some drops may find their way in after prolonged immersion."
• "It is watertight for long snorkeling. But you cannot take photos in the water when your iPhone is in it so this is just false advertising."
• "Once underwater you lose control of the touchscreen. Not a good thing if you have one of the latest iPhone."

Design and Convenience

Pros:

• "The laynard to wear around my neck was much-needed."
• "They are also lightweight and very easy to carry. Also comes with an adjustable neck strap."
• "You can call and take photos while they are in the pouch."
• "We were able to take plenty of photos, videos, and use my phone like normal too."
• "I love the lanyard to be able to hold on to my phone."
• "The touch screen worked the whole time."
• "Completely watertight. You have to press a *little* harder on your screen, of course, but touchscreen worked fine."
• "The touch screen still works on the outside but it can be a little difficult at times."

Cons:

• "My friend was filming my (small) jump off of a rock and the pouch/phone just fell off before I even went into the water."
• "I have mixed feelings about this phone case. Face recognition didn't work well, like it worked 3 out of 10 times for me."
• "The plastic was flimsy and typing was somewhat difficult especially on the sides of the phone because of the air gaps inside the case."
• "Appears to be leak proof but the connection at the bag and clips is easily opened and does not make a right enough seal."
• "Good quality but the straps/landyard did not come on the package."
• "The only thing that worried me was the strap. It is a little flimsy but it held up just fine."
• "The seams are on the side so not easy to push the iPhone buttons."
• "The toggles to open/close are very hard to use."

Photo and Video Quality

Pros:

• "My phone stayed dry, the videos turned out very clear."
• "Photos came out nice and clear and no sand getting on phone."
• "We were able to capture a lot of cool under water photos and videos while our phones stayed protected."
• "I took the phone out and put it back in the pouch. no luck, unresponsive phone keyboard. That is kind of a bummer because main reason I bought this was so i could take pics."
• "I highly recommend this pre test."
• "I went on vacation and spent a lot of time in the water. These cases kept my phones completely dry. The plastic was thin enough for me to still operate my phones, see the screens through the screen protector. Definitely giving these as gifts for the holidays."
• "I love spending time in the pool, but I've always been hesitant to bring my phone with me because I was afraid it would get wet."
• "I was really surprised that my Samsung S9 note fit in it but it did, I bought the clear plastic on both sides so I can take pictures with it in the bag. It took great pictures from inside the bag. No water leaked into it."

Cons:

• "It's hard to see your screen through the plastic because it's so shiny, so just FYI if using in bright sun or underwater which I assume you would be!"
• "Sone underwater photos did not turn out well but don’t know if it was my phone or the case purchased for a beach day while on a cruise."
• "I give this 110+ stars for water resistance. I had one of these on my old iPhone when I went tubing."
• "Touch screen doesn't work when it leaks. Once water gets in, it was impossible to use the phone."
• "The iPhone 12 pro max fits very well in the waterproof case. It is possible of losing some definition when taking pictures; however, the quality of pictures is great."
• "I have a Samsung S23+ with a thin protective case. With the case my phone didn't fit. If I took the case off it barely fit but I had to stretch this a little bit."
• "Very disappointed taking pictures doesn't come out very well I don't have much to say about this product I'm very disappointed I would have prefer to have my money back you win some you lose some I definitely lost this one."
• "I had to remove the phone from my case in order for it to fit in this waterproof case which is something I'm not a huge fan of.Face recognition didn't work well, like it worked 3 out of 10 times for me."
