5) Waterproof Phone Case
Yes, it is possible to protect your phone from water damage with a simple Ziploc sandwich bag but they’re not infallible and it’s incredibly difficult to actually use your phone through a plastic bag. It’s a far better idea to buy a waterproof phone case that is specifically designed to protect your phone while still allowing you to use it. The best thing about these cases is that they’ll not only protect your phone from water-damage at the beach, river or lake, they’ll also protect against sand, dirt and snow. It’s possible to submerge your phone in up to 20 feet of water when using one of these cases and they often include handy wrist/shoulder straps so you can Snapchat while scuba diving.
