The description on Amazon says its waterproof to 5m. When I looked at the spec on Samsung website it says 3m? Which is it and does the warrenty cover water damage?

I would go with Samsung's specs of 3m,as far as the warranty for water damage,I would check with Samsung. My personal opinion on anything such as camera's,etc. being able to be submerged is that unless you have a secure waterproof case designed for underwater use,I wouldn't use it for underwater pics. I bought this camera to take to the beach and if it got wet or fell into the water I felt it would take that kind of use(abuse) as compared to a regular digital camera.I hope this helps and sorry for long response.

Mine lasted 4 years. I shoul dof taken out a warranty on it but did not. We habe 5 TV's and they are all SamSung's and never had an issue and some are 8 years old. All bought from Amazon. The Board ?/(greenboard)?? went out on the the 32" Samsung I had. I think I just got a dud as the others are great. I did buy another 32" 720P with a warranty this time. It is doing great..

It is not waterproof. It covers the screen, ports, and phone enough that it can withstand rain and a few drops, but would not with stand full submersion

It's water proof! The directions tell you to test it by putting it together without the phone being in it and put something on top of to weigh it down for 30 minutes or so then take it out of the water and take it apart to see if it's dry inside,I left it under water for an hour and a half and it was dry as a bone inside.Also,the screen is covered.

Sounds like it got wet. That doesn't mean it was damaged. If it charges and lasts a half day with use or a whole day on standby its prob working as well as mine does.

The S5 is waterproof so I'm not sure what your question means. It's an open case... If you're asking if water will damage the plastic and rubber the case is made of... no. If the battery makes the phone larger, it won't fit. You should not buy this case regardless, since it has a major design flaw that will prevent you from using any headphones.

I called Samsung extended warranty dept 11/17/06 at 18662375278 BUT it is an independent company that services Samsung products. they are known as Servicenet. they said that you haveto get a warranty from the retailer only.

NOT water proof but water resistant. If you splash some water on it, you're phone will be ok. If you submerge it under water, the phone will be damaged just as if there was no case around it.

It's waterproof, no damage was done when i dropped it, however I've dropped it a lot without the case and its been fine. The quality isn't that good and you can barely hear anything through the case :(

I splashed water on mine and the screen digitizer freaked out. Water got under the screen protector, spread out under the protector and made the phone think I was pressing everything at the same time. Clearly not water-proof/water-resistant.

The warranty only covers damage to the actual product and not the contents within it. For example, should a leak occur, the warranty would only cover the case and not the phone (if the phone is damaged, then that phone's warranty/insurance will cover any damage).I have had this case for a while now and I swim a mile everyday--and absolutely NOTHING has gotten into the case while I'm in the water. Even through abrupt flip turns, nothing is getting into that case. Believe me, I was a little skeptical at first (especially given the price), but taking the chance was well worth it. This is an amazing product, especially for what it's worth. The warranty only covers damage to the actual product and not the contents within it.

Water resistant is not the same as water proof. Common sense says not to submerge any electronics in water even if using a water-proof case. I've gotten mine wet from rain and mud but not dropped it in a toilet, for instance.

The waterproof does work under the conditions the manufactuer suggests which is held under water in a sink for 6 minutes. it does say its waterproof to 6 feet but I'm sure that's only for accidents. the case is sufficient for hhaving your phone poolside while you swim but i wouldn't go diving with it. you will want to test the case in the sink without your phone in it as suggested first. i have not seen any issues with it. it is basic and sufficient protection for common accidents

I have used mine for swimming as it is water resistant to 50 meters. However, if the screen is wet the touch sensor that moves you between screens does not work without drying it off first. All in all, I've been satisfied with my purchase, though.

I can't answer this from my usage, but the Amazon product description does not indicate that it is waterproof.

The SGH-T139 is warrantied by Samsung for 1 year for handset and 1 year for battery. If you want to use the manufacturers warranty, you will call 1-888-987-4357 to speak with Samsung and request an RMA and loosely see if it seems covered by warranty terms. If it seems so, they will ask you for your email or home address and send you both the RMA number (return authorization) and a prepaid UPS label. You will pack the phone (if it is the phone for sure, you will not include the battery) and bring it to UPS / UPS authorized shipping centers and drop it off for shipping. The adressee will be their Samsung technicians in Plano, TX if in the USA. The techs will receive and test the phone carefully seeing you didn't cause the damage by water, dropping, etc., and to further verify it is in fact their fault. If it is, they will repair it and send it back to you at no cost to you. If they determine it is your fault, even partially (such as you get humidity in your phone-your fault- plus it had a defective display beforehand-their fault), then they will email you the fees and a way to pay. You will need to pay, if your are on the hook, at least all the postage and probably diagnosos too even if you decide it is not worth repairing, so if it is anything but a clear cut case of defect, you will learn it simply isn't worth returning and probably forget about it (and they won't return it without postage). There is usually a (strict!) 30 day no questions asked requirement by law that the phone can be returned in the original unused condition to the original seller. Personal experience if it isn't T-Mobile or Amazon.com sold and shipped directly (not marketplace sellers, but rather *direct from Amazon.com*), it is a situation you want to not bother and chock up to learning as third parties can make this process miserable with their red tape and sometimes impossible demands.

I don't think you can. The Samsung Active is a little different design and it's already waterproof from what I understand. If that be the case I.would recommend checking into a Zagg invisible shield. You can get one that protects the screen.and the phone but it won't make it bulky. I had it before on an Lg Dare protected it very well from scratches. Check into.The active first and make sure it's waterproof. For the life proof I'm not sure... I've only used Seidio. Love the stuff!
