I had to get a protection cover for my new GoPro ASAP, so I grabbed this one without thinking twice only looking at the price.. THEN after I realized - oh.. this is mainly for underwater, maybe I should have grabbed one of those all-in-one packs...
The case looks solid, but I have NOT tested it in water (yet) as I had not got this for that purpose :|
BUT it seems to seal well, and looks robust enough to be waterproof in shallow water.
As a general protection case, which stupid-me had gotten it for, it doesn't do well because:
- Integrated mic is useless as it's covered inside the 'waterproof' case. Duh.
- Touchscreen is inaccessible (only the bottoms on top and side - they are extended out to the case by its own buttons). DUhhhh
- All cable connectivity is out - and when you want to connect it, you have to remove it from the cover which means any accessory connections (handles, tripods etc.) will have to be removed as they are attached to the case, not to the GoPro. DUuugugugghhh haha
I won't tick off any stars, since the product didn't do anything wrong, it was just my oversight.
AND I THINK this would be a good waterproof case... test still to be done...
Leaving the review to advise people who are considering this only for general protection.
