Are Otterbox cases waterproof?

Asked a year ago
No, Otterbox cases are not waterproof. While they provide excellent protection against drops and scuffs, they are not designed to keep your device completely dry underwater. However, many Otterbox cases have water-resistant properties that can provide some level of protection against minor splashes, rain, or accidental spills. These cases are engineered with tight seals and precise port covers to prevent water from entering your device and causing damage. It is important to note that water resistance can diminish over time due to wear and tear, so it is always recommended to exercise caution around water. For complete waterproof protection, Otterbox offers specialized cases like the Otterbox Preserver series, designed specifically for underwater activities and capable of being submerged up to a certain depth for a limited duration.
