Is it safe to buy a generic life proof case for Iphone?

They are $80 in the store, and on amazon they are around $60. I went to ebay and found generic brands for at the most $30. The people who sell them all have positive feedback, but is it safe to use a generic brand? I want to swim while using the case and all because after all it is WATER PROOF. Should I get it on amazon, buy a used branded one on ebay, or buy a $25-$30 one on ebay that is generic but unused?

iPhone 4/4S-http://www.ebay.com/itm/321155284598

These are OEM original products from lifeproof

i recommend getting a otterbox armor way more protective than lifeproof

I have had a few friends who have had the lifeproof case and they have broken relatively sooner than you would expect. They were able to return the product and receive a new one.

Therefore I would recommend using amazon…

As you can see in the link, the case on amazon is actually sold by the actual Lifeproof company that makes the case. This would enable you to return the case in case it broke and the risk of breaking your phone is reduced. I would not put my phone in a generic brand but I have put it in the lifeproof case before and have made some awesome pictures! Enjoy!

  • Will the iPhone 5s life proof case fit the iPhone 5? I'm planning on buying a life proof case on eBay but the one that is available that I want(it is unopened) is a iPhone 5s case. I really want it and was wondering if I can fit my white iPhone 5 case in it? I don't know if color makes a difference… Thank you!
  • Why does my iPhone 5 make my red life proof case look pink in pictures? I have the white iPhone 5 and a red lifeproof case for it and whenever I take a mirror picture with it for my avi on twitter or something it always makes my life proof case look pink and people are always like hey why is your case pink are you gay and all of this stuff so why does it make my case look pink?
  • Why can't any one hear me through the life proof iphone 4s case? I have a life proof case for a while now and it it starting to get annoying that every time i'm talking to some one on the iPhone that they can't hear me. For them to hear me i have to open the charger flap from under the case then cup my hand around it for them to hear me. Is this normal for the case or some thing is wrong with the case?
  • WHAT ARE SOME GOOD WATER/LIFE PROOF IPHONE CASE? For an iPhone 4/4S. I've seen some at best buy and they are pretty pricey around 90 bucks. I also checked eBay and they have some for like $20 and I'm not sure if I should get those, i don't know any good brands or if i can really trust them lol. Also, when they say water proof, can you actually use it under water? Or just like water spills and stuff? Lol
