10 Best Waterproof iphone 6 cases

Catalyst Waterproof Case ($70)

You’ll be hard-pressed to find a better option than this case from Catalyst, if you need something that can genuinely handle a dunk. This case is waterproof at up to 5 meters depth and boasts an IP68 rating. It also meets military standards for drop tests, so you can use your iPhone 6 outdoors with confidence, if it’s wrapped in one of these. The Touch ID, buttons, and touchscreen all work with the case on, and the ports are accessible via plugs, but not every cable is going to fit.

Lunatik Aquatik Case ($100)

AVAILABLE HERE

The Lunatik Aquatik is one of the few, fully waterproof cases with a slim form factor, and a colorful design. This one is TouchID compatible and scores an IP68 rating, which means the case will, at minimum, protect your phone when submerged for up to 30 minutes in up to 3 feet of water. Lunatik has another, beefier case that’ll withstand higher impact falls, if it’s rugged protection you’re after.

Lifeproof Fre Case ($70)

One of the best waterproof iPhone 6 case manufacturers is Lifeproof (now owned by Otterbox), which has a reputation for delivering consistently dependable iPhone cases. The Fre has a scratch-resistant touchscreen cover and can also be submerged in up to 2 meters of water for up to an hour. For waterproof cases, Lifeproof is tough to beat on usability and style. You can pick this one up in a variety of different two-tone color combinations. It will also protect your iPhone 6 from snow, dirt, and drop damage.

Griffin Survivor All-Terrain ($22)

AVAILABLE HERE

This water-resistant case comes from a big name manufacturer you can trust. These cases meet military standard 810G, so drop damage up to 2 meters is not a problem. They also keep the rain out, as every angle of the phone is covered, but there’s no guarantee it will cope with submersion. It’s quite bulky, and the screen protector can impact screen sensitivity. Importantly, the Touch ID does work with the case on, there’s a slightly different material over it. It comes in plain black, or with pink or blue highlights. The iPhone 6 Plus version costs $10 more.

Dog & Bone Wetsuit Waterproof Case ($60)

You’ll enjoy peace of mind — even if your iPhone 6 is submerged — with this case. It has an IP68 rating and it can handle weather and dirt. It also improves grip, and gives you solid drop protection to military standards. Like a lot of rugged cases with all-round protection, there are some issues with this one. The Touch ID functionality isn’t perfect, and the protective frame on the front makes it difficult to do things like swipe up to open the Notification center. In case you’re wondering about the name, dog and bone is cockney rhyming slang for phone.

Merit Waterproof Case ($36)

AVAILABLE HERE

Here’s another case that gets an IP68 rating. You can submerge it, take it out in dirty, or wet environments, and even drop it, without having to worry about about your iPhone 6 being damaged. You’ll also find that the design allows you to use your iPhone 6 with the case on. Everything is accessible, as it should be. This is an improved version of Merit’s original case, and the company promises that sound issues have been fixed. It also comes with a lanyard attachment and a headphone adapter. It’s surprisingly cheap too.

Acewin Waterproof Case ($36)

This is another waterproof option that won’t break the bank, but will keep your iPhone 6 dry. It has an IP68 rating, so it can handle submersion, and bad weather will not be a problem. This is also a relatively slim case, the trade-off is reduced drop protection compared to some of the others, though the manufacturer claims that it passes military drop test standard 810G-516.6. It comes in two pieces, so it’s easy to fit, and you’ll find your iPhone 6 is perfectly usable with the case.

JOTO Waterproof Bag ($10)

AVAILABLE HERE

If you already have a case for everyday wear and you just want a waterproof solution for days at the beach or out on a lake, then you could just opt for a bag like this and avoid spending a lot. It will fit a wide variety of devices including the iPhone 6. You can see the phone and even use it through the clear windowed sides. The snap lock at the top keeps it completely safe from the elements, and there’s a strap to make it easy to carry or hang round your neck.

Seidio Obex Waterproof Case ($75)

This is a bulky case with a holster attachment, which could be ideal for anyone who works outdoors. It meets 810F military drop test standards, so it offers rugged protection. It also has an IP68 rating, which means it can handle splashes and submersion. The problem with this case is that it impacts on sound quality. It also makes the iPhone harder to use, though, sadly, that’s something you can say about most protective cases.

New Trent Trentium Case for iPhone 6 ($20)

AVAILABLE HERE

This water-resistant case could work for you, if you don’t need a completely waterproof case, but you’d like something that’ll shed water and not look like a brick. There are rubber bumper seals for the ports to keep debris and moisture out, but we wouldn’t advise testing it in anything more than light rain. The case includes replaceable rear panels in silver, gold, and “gun metal.” It’s also cheap.
