Cheaper alternative to the PunkCases
TL;DR: Super sturdy phone case, does add bulk to the phone, slightly decreased sensitivity of the screen, really is waterproof, will last 1.5-2 yearsI bought a $45 punkcase around two years ago and bought this case to replace it. This is literally the exact same phone case as the punkcase. Besides color, there is absolutely no difference between the cases. So if you're searching for (relatively) cheap, waterproof phone cases and see this style, a lot of them may be manufactured by the same company and are just being sold at different price points based on the company you're buying from. I was happy for a cheaper option, especially if this case will only last 1 year and 8 months like the last one did.Durability 3/5The wrist strap broke within nine months. The thin cord that connects the wrist loop to the edge of the case started fraying quickly and completely snapped nine months after purchase. (And as my experience goes, it will break at an inopportune time, and if you're inebriated and not used to actually carrying your phone with you because you've been dangling it from your wrist for the last nine months, you may lose your phone and have to go track it down the next morning, just a warning. Extra wrist straps are cheap and easily replaceable and may save your weekend.)The charging port plug broke after a year. The charging port plug is held on by two strips of rubber. One snaped 1 year after purchase, the other snapped a year and a half after purchase. The case was fine, there was just a hole at the bottom, which made charging my phone easier, but it wasn't waterproof.After a year and a half, the buttons broke, making the case unusable. First, the volume down button broke. The rubber around the button split and the button completely detached and fell out of the case. Since the case's bulk is only on the sides, the button is unreachable once it breaks. A few weeks later, the volume up and the power buttons broke in a similar way. At that point, I considered the case unusable.Sturdiness 5/5The case is super sturdy, I dropped my phone all the time and the case never even looked damaged and the phone was never harmed. The front panel is a hard, transparent film which is nice because it doesn't shatter or get scratched when the phone is dropped. The back panel can be another hard film (which is cool to put things behind your phone) or it can be a colored piece of plastic (which is also extremely durable).The sturdiness does come from the case's bulk, which is primarily around the edge and back of the phone. When compared to other waterproof cases and other durable cases, the case has one of the slimmer designs, even though it still makes it fairly larger than the phone. The reinforces case on the back makes the phone wider and bulkier to hold, but the case is about the same thickness as one of those cardholders with 1-2 cards in it (if you have 3 cards or more cards, they will protrude more than the case).As far as I know, the case is actually waterproof, like it says. I (accidentally) dropped my phone in the pool/bath three times and each time the phone was fully submerged (and rapidly sunk) for at least 2 seconds. The first time, I wiped the case down and opened it to make sure water didn't actually get inside, but it was completely dry. The second and third times, I just wiped the phone down and made sure no water was stuck in the microphone or speaker ports. I've had to replace the battery on my phone and when I've opened it, none of the sensor pads showed water damage.Sensitivity 4/5The hard film on the front does cause some decreased sensitivity when using the phone, but it is extremely easy to adapt to the different pressure. Since it is a hard film, it is lesser prone to warping and lies very close to the surface of the phone, leaving very few air bubbles and making it feel like you are touching the actual phone's screen. As far as I know, due to the design of the phone case, the side panels on the phone are inaccessible.

strong waterproof/shockproof case for s8
If someone wants a case to protect his samsung s8 from shock or water, then I'll highly recommend this waterproof case to him! This case is not only a strong waterproof case, but also a strong shockproof case. Believe me, you won't regret to order it.

Good quality at a fair price. It actually works
I tested out the waterproofing as soon as I got this case and you can tell that it holds up well. I would feel confident taking this with me on my friend's boat. The color is okay, it helps you to find the phone easier. So far it looks like it will hold up over time but only time will tell so as usual I will update if any problems occurThe back of the case is a pretty thin clear wrap material which tore after normal usage. It is no longer waterproof which is the reason I chose this one.

Very happy with my purchase!!
I LOVE this "skin" for my cellphone!Looks great.. and I didn't realize it, but you also received a code to download the matching screensaver, so the front and the back of my phone have the same beautiful floral design! There's a ton of different designs to choose from, all made to fit your phone perfectly!The whole process was super simple, even for a oldster like myself!!Totally happy with the cool new look of my old phone 😃

Satisfied with this s8 case
I got this case for a week. I want to say I'm satisfied with this sealed case.Excellences:1. Gives phone full body protection. I did a water test before I installed it. It behaved well.What's more, this case is very easy to install and it just took me 15 seconds to finish the installation.2. Fits my samsung s8 perfectly.3. Stylish fashion. It is well designed. Edges are black and back is clear. Clear back shows the original color of my phone. The four edges of this phone case are dotted with many blue dots4. Cheap case. Price is reasonable and it is worth its money.5. Great team service. There was no lanyard in my package at first. I sent an email to their team and they shipped a new lanyard to me quickly.Blemishes:1. a little hard to take off this case. It is too sealed.But I believe it will protect my phone well.

Black one is good, blue one is good too!
Last year I also bought a black TESTGO s8 waterproof case, it is really good! Very durable sturdy and waterproof.Knowing that TESTGO produced the blue s8 waterproof case, I immediately ordered one. The quality is as good as the one I bought before! The only difference is that this blue model is much more beautiful! The blue dots are special!If you also want to buy a protective phone case for your galaxy s8, then I highly recommend this one!

Charging cord does not work with this case
This seems to be a solid case and I have no doubts that it will be waterproof. NONE of my charging cables can be used with it and I do have on that has a little longer reach, but the case is too thick & charging hole does not accommodate any if my chargers. My work around is a wireless charger. The case does not quite sit flush on the charger though, so you kind of have to move it around to make sure it is positioned just so. This is on a phone I am gifting to my 13 year old, but I suspect we may end up putting a different case on it to allow for corded charging.

A gimmick, not a real everyday case
Extremely difficult to get your phone in and out of the case and on a call tough for the party on the other line to hear you. This is a specialty case for when you want something waterproof I guess although I did not test it underwater because I immediately returned it. A specialty case if it actually works underwater but not your everyday driver.
