Histori
LifeProof was founded in 2009 by Gary Rayner, entrepreneur of the Gary series, having an MBA in Business from Queensland University of Technology. After 18 months and a $ 1 million investment, the company made its public debut at the 2011 Launch Conference where it won the award for best product and best presentation after a demonstration with LifeProof-protected iPhone 4 that included dropping it on the ground, strangling it in ketchup, mustard , and dirt, followed by successfully rinsing it in a fish tank.
In August 2011, competitor Otterbox filed a patent lawsuit claiming the company infringes on four properties related to protective device protection. On October 10, 2012, Ironman announced LifeProof as the official sponsor during the Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii. Announced on November 27, 2012, LifeProof became a Participatory Sponsor of all XTERRA Triathlon 2013 events, marketing, and media in the United States. On January 7, 2013, LifeProof announced a partnership with Belkin EMEA. Belkin EMEA will be responsible for the sales and distribution of LifeProof products in Europe.
On May 23, 2013, when the company was acquired by Otterbox for an undisclosed amount, the Colorado court officially ended the patent lawsuit case.

Products
The LifeProof NÃÆ'¼ÃÆ'¼d is a technology that exposes the original screen of the device while protecting the phone from water, dirt, snow, and dropping damage. This allows for zero visual interference, glare, loss of contrast or touch disturbance. Technology is currently supported on iPhone 5, iPhone 5s, iPhone 5s, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone SE, iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4, Galaxy S5, iPad, and iPad Mini.
The Lifeproof Fr? is a technology based on the development of original LifeProof technology and provides built-in scratch protection to protect the touch screen of the device safely from damage. This product is also completely waterproof, dustproof, snowproof, and hardiness. Currently available for iPhone 4s, iPhone 5, iPhone 5s, iPhone 5s, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s, iPhone 7s, Galaxy S4, Galaxy S5, Galaxy S6, Galaxy S7, Droid Turbo, Droid Turbo 2, Droid Maxx 2, LG G5, Mini iPad 1-4, and 5G and 6G iPod Touch. A Lifeproof Fr? Power case for iPhone 6 incorporates a slimline battery to double the battery life of the phone, while protecting the phone from water, dirt, snow, and dropping damage.
Technology
LifeProof combines many technologies to create a casing that protects electronic devices from the inside out. This case will make the phone waterproof, dustproof, snowproof, and shock resistant. The LifeProof case for Apple iPhone only adds 1 / 16 inch (1.6 mm) to the sides of the phone. The casing incorporates a polycarbonate frame, a waterproof acoustic port, a fully-touch-sensitive waterproof screen protector, and built-in optical glass that covers the camera lens of the phone to prevent loss of photographic detail. Each LifeProof case is incorporated in a two-part snap-joint assembly that has a thin polymer gasket in which it closes. Each box then becomes fully waterproof after sealing, and also closes the charging port through a hinged and hinged door.
For water-resistant earphone jack, LifeProof creates a screw seal that can be used when the jack is not in use. To use the jack and maintain waterproof function, LifeProof provides a short waterproof earphone extension cable that is screwed into the jack on the casing. When used with waterproof earphones, this allows the swimmer to listen to music while fully underwater, provided the swimmer stays close to the surface. For deeper dive or stronger surfing, higher-grade subs cases are useful. The optional "Lifejacket Float" flotation jacket can be added to some models to prevent the equipment from sinking if it falls into the water.
LifeProof claims that water tests each case before shipping. After the first test, LifeProof will send the case to an independent agent to perform additional tests. If the case passes both tests, the case will be sent, and if the case does not pass, the case will be canceled. Each LifeProof case meets military standards as well. MIL STD 810G-516.6 is a United States Military Standard that handles the functional decline of electronic devices. Standards require that items tested can be physically and functionally withstand repetitive shocks often encountered in transport, service, and handling. In addition, LifeProof cases meet international IP-68 standards for dust and water protection. This case is necessary to hold the order of eight hours of circulating dust particles, and one hour fully submerged underwater at a depth of 2 meters (6 feet 7 inches). LifeProof recommends that end users test new cases for waterproof before installing electronic equipment.
