Title: Cell Phone Case
Post by: TenCrabs on March 05, 2018, 09:19:52 PM
I am looking for a good case for a cell phone that I can keep around my neck. Has anyone used either of these? Might be nice if keys fit in there also.

From reading the reviews it seems like it is difficult to put the phone in the case because of plastic on plastic. Can you take a picture through one of these cases? Probably not...

I don't know about those brands specifically but I use something similar. It is a lil hard getting the phone back out but it works otherwise. I am able to use my phone to take pictures of whatever while in the case.

Those are cool. I use something similar. But keep in mind you'll have to take ur phone out of its original case to fit it in

Stoked with this one from another thread...I feel like it bulletproof and all functions go.......

Not sure about the neck part, has a leash and a float lanyard.

Thanks! That Sealine e-case looks stout. Just have to find a lanyard or make one.

That's a great price---if you get it and it works well (or not) be sure to post a review...

I got a Travelon case for xmas. Only used it once so far. Hopefully will be taking a bunch of pics of halis at ARW soon.

I love it and trust it but am still careful.  Functions all work and speaker and hearing is clear.  Not good at reviewing other than having used the pouchy kind and cannot get the phone screen to stay on.  I don't get it.

I have something similar for my iphone 5se with an otterbox case. It works great. I loop the lanyard on my pfd and keep the phone in one of the pockets

I have a similar case as well, I use my phone for pictures and gps. The camera works surprisingly well, as long as the back of the pouch is dry the photos turn out close to normal. The only complaint I have is that it is difficult to press  buttons on the side of the phone, which is where my power button happens to be.

It's a good case and inexpensive.  Been using it for years!
