SAN DIEGO, Nov. 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- LifeProof, the award-winning maker of all-protective, everyday cases for smartphones and tablets, today announced the LifeProof Frē, a water proof, dirt proof, snow proof and shock proof case for the Apple iPhone 5. The most recent in a line of industry-defining cases, the LifeProof Frē provides protection from Mother Nature as well as from drops, scratches, sweat, dirt and other hazards of daily living.

The LifeProof Frē was custom engineered to protect and enhance the thinner, more sensitive iPhone 5 and to optimize every feature and function, including the speakers, volume controls, larger touch screen, and enhanced front and back cameras. The case protects the headphone jack and charge port, while ensuring they are fully accessible. Additionally, the case protects the speakers and microphones while actually improving the speaker sound, and the clear window on the back showcases the beauty of the Apple design.
The LifeProof Frē went through independent lab testing to meet military standards for shock and impact protection, and has an IP-68 rating for water, dirt, and snow protection. In addition, every single LifeProof case is water-tested at the factory before shipping to customers. Yet the LifeProof case adds only 1.5mm of thickness to the footprint of the phone.
"Thanks to an army of engineers working 24/7 on three continents, the LifeProof Frē for iPhone 5 is our sleekest, most elegant case yet," said Gary Rayner, CEO of LifeProof. "We're extremely proud to be able to offer a first-class iPhone 5 case to the millions of users who want the freedom to take their iPhone 5 everywhere their life, adventures or work takes them."
The LifeProof Frē comes in both black and white colors and is priced at $79.99. The LifeProof Frē is available exclusively at Best Buy and Best Buy Mobile specialty stores nationwide and at www.lifeproof.com.
