Sealife SportDiver Underwater Smartphone Housing
The SeaLife SportDiver is a compact and lightweight underwater housing for smartphones. The SportDiver housing will allow divers to take photos and video with their smartphone down to 130 feet or 40 meters. The SportDiver can encase most Android models and all iPhones from iPhone 7 through iPhone 14 Pro Max. The free SportDiver App is available at the App Store or Play Store, and works with the current and prior generation of the OS. Please review our SportDiver compatibility checker and fit guide. The heavy-duty housing is constructed of Polycarbonate, stainless steel, aluminum and optical grade glass. And while the SportDiver housing is “heavy duty”, it is not heavy, weighing less than 1.5 pounds (641 grams), and is lightweight for travelling and offers almost neutral buoyancy in water depending on which smartphone model is used.

I was very skeptical to use it, because it takes some time to set it up. I really recommend watching a YouTube video how to put everything together before using this housing (it's about 40 min video). I used this housing in the past week. Overall, I am very satisfied with the quality of this housing. It's very smart how it looks at the pressure inside and checks for leaks. I got down to around 130 ft on one of the dives, and it was totally fine (I think this is the max that you can go with this housing). I used this housing with the iPhone 12pro. Quality of photos and videos is incredible.

Overall a great system. I've taken some great photos and videos with it in Cozumel, Indo, and elsewhere. I like it as when you're done with the dive the photos are on your phone, no messing around hoping that the GoPro "hooks up" with your phone. Also, I had major issues with those videos playing etc. It's super easy to set up this housing with your phone. I did have it "pop" on me at 120 feet, it didn't leak but the pressure seal did alert me to an issue so I won't be going very deep with it again. Another two issues is that my IPhone 13 Pro doesn't have a stabilization setting so sometimes the videos get a little shaky. Also, the phone doesn't "focus" sometimes as quickly as you'd like. Of course those are phone issues and not housing issues. I'd buy it again.

I've been using camera housings for years and the quality and construction of this one is top notch. Love the vacuum seal. Only thing I wish is that the base plate was wider. Its fine if you use their handle, but there are some better options and much better lights available from light & motion to complement the setup, a wider range of mounting spots on the bottom would help...but I'm nit picking here. It really is a great housing!

This camera setup is awesome! Simple setup - just 10 minutes of prep and you are ready for the water. Simple to use - point and shoot with numerous features available. Case has some adaptability to model of phone you have so can switch out between dives if wanted.
This is a professional level dive housing that I would trust with my primary phone. Compared to 1" sensor cameras, I think the latest computational photography features of an iPhone 12/13 or similarly premium camera is superior. The iOS app works as advertised and allows you to shoot RAW JPG. It doesn't seem to take full advantage of ProRAW though.The strengths over a budget "Amazon" enclosure is the vacuum seal technology along with dual sensors for leakage. One is a pressure sensor and the other is a moisture sensor.The red filter helps correct white balance at deep depths but it does diminish light. I haven't determined if it's better than using the RAW files and correcting white balance later.
I am headed to do some snorkeling and I wanted to do some photography. But, I did not want to use my Sony a7R-IV. Rather, I did not want anything bulky and wanted to use my iPhone. I saw this on B&H.This housing is a very high quality product which is connected to the phone via Bluetooth. You operate the camera through an App. I like the quality materials and the leak detection system. It fits all recent iPhones and most Androids. The photos and video were fine.
Great. Works amazing for dropping your phone into. Well made. I suggest getting the double light rig to go with it. It gets dark down there real quick.Its not National Geographic level, but for some vacation and leisure shots they turn out decent. All underwater photos need color correction (mostly) to some extent after you get them into the computer.Also quality will vary depending on conditions in the water so there's that too.All my photos were shot on a Pixel 5
ABSOLUTELY SUPERB! Everything included in the box (apart from the smart-phone) but a really refreshing change that you don't have to buy a tonne of other stuff to get it working. However I would recommend buying an extra packet of 'moisture muncher' capsules as they do their job and need to be replaced fairly regularly.The case performed faultlessly with my brand new iPhone 13 Pro Max and is a really clever design in both hardware and software. Highly recommended.
Just came back from Little Caymans. Housing worked wonderfully! Bought for my wife. She is not a tech person by any means, but she found it simple to use and took great pics and videos. Her pics were better than my Go Pro! Super easy to use right out of the box. Will buy one for myself. Highest recommendation!
I have been comparing underwater cases for my iPhone 11Pro Max for a long time. Then I went to the YouTube channel and looked at some reviews. I settled on the choice - SportDiver Underwater Smartphone Housing. It turned out to be the right choice for me in my upcoming vacation. I am very pleased with my purchase. And you can use it in accordance with the instructions on the manufacturer's website or on the YouTube channel, everything is very well described. Compare online stores to buy. My choice in most cases was B&H Photo Video Audio equipment that I took for myself, believe me - there are very affordable and reasonable prices for photo, video and audio equipment. I recommend buying from B&H.
