is this phone waterproof

I wouldn't chance it. It's just like a phone. The outer speakers and Mic will get ruined.

No, it is water resistant, not water proof. It can handle rain and sweat but not being submerged

I wouldn't say it's waterproof. The s5 is water resistant itself. As far as protection goes, it will keep your phone from getting scratched and should protect it from a small fall. If you lay the phone down on its face, there is almost about 1/8" gap from surface to screen because of raised sides on case.

waterproof no, water resistant yes. The IP (ingress protection) rating of the phone says that submerging the phone or splashing it with water will not hard the phone. It is a good idea not to use the speakers when submerged either.

the case is only designed to protect the device from some impact, dirt, etc. but the phone itself is proported to be waterproof in some reasonable, time limited situations. best of luck. I am wary of trying it myself.

It is not waterproof. I would call it water resistant. If you drop it in water you will probably ruin your phone. Nothing in this world is "break proof."

No it is not waterproof but it does keep the port covers from getting dirty. I would not take this phone with this case in the shower. I it makes the phone bulky. Makes the back square. I can throw my phone now so all my worries of it breaking if dropped are gone. I was also able to attach a phone lanyard to it which makes the case even awesomerz

It really is waterproof! I haven't tried taking it deep underwater yet but so far it has kept my phone dry!

It is not waterproof in terms of immersing in water but will keep splashes off the phone. I actually did drop mine in a shallow stream momentarily and it was OK, but I would not recommend this

No, a water proof plastic pouch is included - the entire phone slips into the pouch making it waterproof.

No this is not water proof, it is just a soft rubber shell, covered in a harder shell. Makes it pretty bulky, but my phone is protected.

Hello in my country works with the three telephone operators without problems, this ZL is not waterproof, otherwise it is an excellent phone

It's not fully waterproof. There are openings where you put the phone in and where the headphones go.

It is not waterproof, the charging port and audio port are open as well as the mic, but the power and volume button are covered they are permenantly covered, but they did a really good job of not making it super stiff to use these buttons like some other cases do

i wouldnt say waterproof, like if you drop it and submerge it in water, then its probably done for, but if you get it wet from rain or whatnot then its fine. and the case itself is quite durable, it has whistanded quite some falls and been fine, so i would highly recommend this case. the only other case as good as an otterbox is a lifeproof. hope i helped!

Yes, its waterproof. I have had it outside for months, no leaks or water problems.

I would say definitely not waterproof. If the phone and case were dropped in liquid, the fit does not seem tight enough to keep the liquid out, not to mention the screen, speaker and video camera are exposed. However, if a small amount of liquid spilled on the case, it could be wiped off with no damage to the phone..all depends on where the liquid landed and how much.
