Our thoughts on this robust underwater smartphone housing for iPhone and Android
By Charlie Gardiner & Nirupam Nigam

SeaLife SportDiver Smartphone Housing Review

SeaLife SportDiver Smartphone Housing Review
Charlie Gardiner & Nirupam Nigam
Our thoughts on this robust underwater smartphone housing for iPhone and Android

The SeaLife SportDiver smartphone housing turns most modern smartphones into underwater cameras for a fraction of the cost of a dedicated camera and housing setup. It's an excellent choice for people who want to dip their toes into the world of underwater photography but don't want the expense or hassle that comes with typical underwater camera systems. As the SportDiver is significantly smaller than most underwater camera systems, it's the perfect traveling companion.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
