OverBoard Pro-Sport MP3 Case with Sports Arm Strap Reviews

I only gave it 3 stars because I haven't used it yet.  I did not buy it to swim with, but for when I go out paddling on my sit on top kayak just in case I fall in the water.

This is the first waterproof ipod case I have had, so I don't know if this is what I will find with all of them but I am very disappointed in the case. While it does keep my ipod dry, the volume goes lower as I am swimming until I have to stop doing laps and turn the volume back up. I can lock my ipod before I start swimming so the volume doesn't change but if I want to change songs while in the pool I can't do that.

I use this for my droid phone to listen to audio books while I swim.  I was reluctant to try it at first, but I tested it empty in a sink of water and it passed the test, so I tried it out.  It works very well, and I can even use the touch screen through the window.   Being female, I put this down the front of my swimsuit instead of trying to attach it to my arm. I do have some issues with swimming with headphones, but that is another matter.

I have been using my overboard pro sport mp3 case now for over a week. It is exactly what I was hoping for. Great sound quality,  easy to use and affordable.

Love this case- works great- I use with my I - Pod while in pool.  Keeps my I-Pod completely dry & safe!!!  Easy to use, comes with arm band & clip.  I would highly recommend this product.

Used it for kayaking.  My ipod was kepted dry.
I would recommend it for any water sports.

It's a great concept, but a bit clunky. Flaps around a lot during lap-swimming.  Needs more than a velcro strap at middle to snug securely to upper arm.  Also tricky to adjust volume and select tracks.

This item is performing quite well in our daily pool swims.  It is easy to use and so far is water tight. It appears to be well made and  durable as well as simple to lock and use.
