SeaLife SportDiver Underwater Housing for iPhone & Android
The new Sealife SportDiver Underwater Housing for iPhone and Android phones is here, and we think it is awesome!
Nowadays, most iPhones and Android phones feature a competent built-in multi-lens camera, producing fantastic quality photos and videos topside. You can now convert your iPhone into a powerful underwater tool. This revolutionary compact underwater housing for iPhones is an excellent option for all divers, snorkellers and freedivers looking to record memorable underwater footage but perhaps are not ready to commit to buying more expensive and larger photo/video rigs. It is easy to pack, easy to travel with and easy to use – we think it is a fantastic option for travelling divers too.
The Sealife SportDiver Underwater Housing – Design
The Sealife’s underwater housing for iPhone and Android not only looks great but has an ergonomic design. At the front, you will find a large lens compatible with most iPhones in the range from iPhone 7 to iPhone Max and most Android phones running current and recent previous OS versions (Android 10 & 11). The back of the case is one large high-quality screen so you can see what you shoot and record in great detail. The large shutter button on the front feels excellent even in gloves. Four large buttons to access most iPhone photo functions are at the back, while a positive cam lock on a side will let you access your iPhone easily when needed. The housing is ergonomically designed and comfortable to hold with one hand, and small enough to be safely tucked away in a larger drysuit utility pocket.
This fantastic iPhone and Android underwater housing is also compatible with the Sealife Sea Dragon Lighting System or the Sealife Flex Connect range of products. If you need extra protection for the LCD display we offer a dedicated screen shield.
Sealife SportDiver Underwater Housing – Functions
The Sealife Team made sure that you will not miss any action, equipping this underwater iPhone housing with a large, lag-free shutter button for fast shooting in the photo and video modes. Four navigational buttons on the back of the housing make accessing and flicking through all the functions very natural. The Sealife SportDiver Underwater housing connects to your iPhone or Android phone via Bluetooth and the dedicated free Sealife SportDiver iPhone or Android App. It offers access to the most advanced photo/video options ordinarily available to the underwater photographer such as Zoom, Lens selection, Exposure, Focus, White Balance, Tint, RAW capture, Live Photo and Background Blur.
We know that some of you, who already engage in underwater photography, will tell us that colour correction is essential. This smart underwater housing offers a dedicated red filter mounting for a removable blue water colour-correction filter. Shoot it, save it, share it with your friends and family directly from your iPhone or Android with this unique underwater system for iPhones.
Sealife SportDiver Underwater Housing – Dual Alarm System
The Sealife Team has thought this underwater housing through, designing it with a superb dual leak alarm system. In the unlikely event, seawater gets inside, or there is a minor pressure drop in the housing, visual and audio alarms will warn you of the issue. We think these are two excellent additional safety features, considering that some iPhone models are already lightly waterproof.
SeaLife SportDiver Underwater Housing – Power plant
Two AAA-rated batteries power this underwater housing providing around 50 hours of shooting, yet another advantage considering a rather large screen size. You can use standard or rechargeable batteries which can be purchased easily in many destinations worldwide or recharged in your hotel room or during a liveaboard holiday.
Sealife SportDiver Underwater Housing – Compatibility
The new Sealife SportDiver Underwater Housing for iPhone is compatible with the following models: iPhone 7, 7 Plus, 8, 8 Plus, X, Xr, Xs, Xs Max, 11, 11 Pro Max, SE (2nd Gen), 12, 12 Mini, 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max models and most Android phones running the current or recent previous versions of the Android OS (10 & 11). You can check the compatibility of your device HERE.
Please note that when using the leak detector make sure the internal contacts do not have any moisture on them from sweat or humidity from air conditioning as this will give you the leak warning alert. Dry them with a towel, wait for while and then test again if this happens.
