ESR debuts new Waterproof Pouch custom-made for underwater, IPX8-grade iPhone photography
ESR has released its most "Innovative" water-resistant pouch-style accessory, and just in time for Summer 2024. The OEM asserts that it still allows the use of camera app controls even if it is up to 3 meters (~10 feet) underwater.
Then again, should the user bring it closer to its IPX8 standard-mandated limit of 30 meters (100 feet) down, they will have to resort to the volume buttons as a shutter. Once back on the surface, the Pouch can be inflated for flotation, yet in a way still rated to allow use of the touchscreen.
The new ESR Waterproof Phone Pouch has 3 sizes: 1 for the iPhone 15 that also fits its 14- and 13-series counterparts; 1 for the iPhone 15 Pro, 14 Pro or 13 Pro and 1 for their Pro Max-series counterparts that could also conceivably fit the 14 and 15 Plus (although the apparently precise camera cut-out fit would be lost in that case).
They are priced from $21.99 to $24.99 in black, clear, purple or titanium and are available on Amazon from now.
