Pelican i1015 Black Case With Clear Lid For iPhone Water Resistant

 (53 customer reviews)

This case is great! As with all Pelican products, build quality is excellent. I designed a custom retention system which consists of a length of tensioned webbing running along the back and 2 metal clips to securely and effortlessly strap it to my belt, and a "mini wallet" compartment - which is a folded piece of cardboard tucked in the front between the two foam spacers. I used the cardboard from my iPhone packaging, and centered the package's super cool metallic Apple logo in the viewing area over it's sleek black background.

This case could be better if it had the mini wallet built in so I didn't have to add it, but I am perfectly satisfied with my solution. The headphone storage could also have used much more thought - if you just stuff your headphones in the bottom of the storage area, they will cause you grief by making it difficult to rapidly remove and insert the iPhone without getting attacked by them. I am working on a special "cage" to coil the headphones around...Read more

This is going to be cheap insurance for my iPhone 4 when I'm doing things outdoors. It fits my iPhone 4 while it's still in it's case-mate Barely There case with some room to spare. I saw a Youtube video that said that the remote on the earbuds did not work, he might have been using and older version of the case, or he just didn't know what he was talking about, because the one I received has the standard 3 ring headphone plug that supports the mic and playback controls! The picture and description is a little deceiving because it says "black" as the color, the gasket that seals the case and holds the device is black, the case itself is all clear, not a big deal though. So far it looks like this is going to be a good case and heavy duty protection.

Not a case for everyday use, it's far too large to carry comfortably in most situations. However, there are situations when this case works out very well. I spend a lot of time kayaking, and this case is perfect for being out on the water, when used with some water resistant headphones. I wouldn't go swimming with it, but it's survived all of the splashes and minor soakings it's received while out on the kayak. The clip is pretty convenient, I just clip it to my vest or shorts, and no worries whenever a swell gives a bit of a splash.

I use the case with a 2nd Gen iPod Touch, which fits easily and securely into the case. Because of the foam inserts in the front of the case, it will also fit other similar-sized electronics, even if they're a bit thicker. I have a G1 phone, and it fits right in as well. As with all Pelican cases, it's very sturdy, and I have no doubts I could throw my iPod at a wall, drop it on the ground, sit on it, maybe even stand on it with no...Read more
