Is this case water resistant, so if I am running out in the rain would I have to worry about breaking my iPod?

I can not answer your question... we live in a city where never rains... and is so hot that it seems we have an eternal summer, so, we never run outside... it was a gift for my son who goes to the gym every day and he is happy with it... he has no complaints about his gift... sorry I can not help you with a good answer...

It's not waterproof, I put a screen protector.I've dropped my iPod couple of times the case on it works.

It's definitely not water proof, but yes, it will suffice if running from your office to the car while raining...pretty much any case will protect your device in that way. If you drop it into a puddle during said rain, that's another story.

No, the case is not waterproof. It is somewhat shock resistant, but, I would not want to drop it from more than 3 ft, without attempting to break it's fall

I have used it in a driving rainstorm for more than 6 hours with no issue so I would have to say yes it is water resistant

Its not waterproof, and i haven't had any issues with it breaking, but I haven't had any issues that it would break from. It is a good solid case though.

I don't believe this is rated for water resistance. You should check Otterbox's website. There are other cases specifically for waterproof applications, I do not believe this is one of them.

the case itself is waterproof but not the ipod-touch or any device you're going to put in because the screen is not covered. But it's really sturdy, our I-touch endured a lot of falls and never breaks. hope that helps

Not at all. In fact gets so wet iphone is covered & I'm worried it will be damaged.

Water resistant Sue. It will not survive submerged. It is designed to defeat rain and it performs that very well. Put it out in the bad weather and it will be just fine.

I would not want to submerge this case and iPad mini. However, it is very water resistant, if it fell in a puddle of water or was rained on I would not be to worried about it.

It's splash resistant, not waterproof. For that you'll want a life proof case.

It isn't 100% water proof, it Does good in heavy rain. Water doesn't get inside the case unless you directly pour a bunch of water above the plastic bar going across top of the screen.

Absolutely! My 8yr old just dropped this out of a moving vehicle yesterday, the case protected my ipod perfectly. I figure if the ipod wasn't damaged after being dropped out of a moving vehicle while in this case than NOTHING can hurt it...lol! I absolutely LOVE this case! I just wish it had easy access to the charger port like it does for headphones. But I can garentee you will love it!!! I do :)

It's not designed for rain or moisture protection. It's designed for drop and ding protection. It likely does add a small amount of waterproofing due to the rubber port and jack protectors. If you plan to spend hours in the rain or minutes in a flash flood, I suspect this case would not be sufficient.

Resistant, absolutely. I've spent many rides in the rain with this decide. I would not recommend submerging it in water for any reason, however. It is not waterproof.

This is not water proof. There are holes for the speakers and the mike. There are covers for the charging port and ear phone jack. This will with water resistance. Installing this case on the phone, first install the two half shell cases that snap around the phone. Then wrap the rubber case around that. This will make it more shock resistant and more resistant to normal bumps. I have dropped mine many times with no issue.

if i buy this for my grandson and he has an apple i pad mini and it does get water in the case are you saying you will not replace or repair. I know the case is water proof but i want to keep my investment safe.
