This is the best money that we have spent in awhile. Took it to Disney World and had a blast on the water rides and at the Water Parks. Took a lot of abuse and didn't leak even in the slightest. We are a bit nervous about the information on keeping it free of hair, sand etc., so didn't take the cover off while in the Parks. Just a tiny bit dispointed on the volume of the recordings but guess that is to be expected when the unit is completely sealed. All of the feature buttons worked great too. Love this thing.

As a divemaster, I am well acquainted with underwater cameras and maintaining integrity of the camera components. Unfortunately, out of deep water, I'm not so smart. On a recent trip I put my flip in the pocket of a wet bathing suit (in a neoprene case). It took two days to dry out before it would operate again. I went online and ordered the underwater case, even after reading the reviews about all the leaks. I checked the seals and the operation, crossed fingers and dove into the pool. No problem, no leaks, and the video is relatively distortion free, but, as expected, the sound is somewhat muffled. Strangely enough the buttons on the flip work far easier in the case than out of the case. I will probably keep it in the case most of the time for that reason. So far, so good.

great, easy to use, well worth the money. every function workes perfectly. However, it leaked with i didn't check the seal. it rolled out of position and my flip is toast. But i'll buy another one and the case is fine, just make certain you check the seal. Here's some video i shot while surfing. [...] (Tom Allen) and this up on [...] I also use a GoPro Wide Angle mounted on my boards.

leaked like a sieve in two feet of water. lost 4 months of pics of honduras. the camera was fine but the housing was crap. i guess i should have tested it before i used my flip in it but huda thunk? good thing i bought from amazon. they only gave a partial refund after 4 months but others wouldn't have given me anything. lots of other better stuff than flip out there.

I have the mino and couldn't find a case for it but read somewhere that someone successfully used this case with the mino so I tried it. The negatives: you can't work any of the controls while the mino is in the case, and there's too much room so the mino jiggles around bumping the case which wreaks havoc on your audio. But you can just hit record and put it in, lock it up, and it works. It doesn't obscure the lens and it keeps it dry. I put some foam in the case to keep it from jiggling around and that solved the audio problem as well. It would be great if they would make a case specifically for the mino but until then, this seems to work.
