Mangix Waterproof Apple Watch 38mm Case, Shockproof Impact Resistant Rugged Protective Case with Bulit-in Screen Protector and Premium Soft Strap Bands for Apple Watch Series 3 & 2 38mm (Black)

I was given a 38mm series 2 and it always looked puny to me. This case totally fixes that and I'm less worried about scratching the face/killing the watch accidentally. Love the style. Has a chunky 1980s Casio vibe. Totally dig it.

Pros:---Weatherproof. When i say this thing is sturdy, it is sturdy. I know the apple watch is water proof already, but with this thing on, i don't have a single worry at all, it's got seals and no holes anywhere, this thing is like an otter box for phones, but even better.---Because of the hinges used, the bands don't have that weird bend in them that makes it impossible to lay the watch flat on a surface, which means that you can put it flat on a charger just fine instead of needing to sit it on it's side or take the case/bands off.---Scree protector! This is a big deal because it is honestly pure frustration to put a screen protector on an apple watch for me, so this eliminates that painstaking process that never can be done right.---Tools are included for maintenance on the hinges and opening of the case. Always a plus.Cons:---Not enough stretch to fit my new series 4 44mm, this isn't a real con as it's not advertised to fit it, but it's agitating to see all these bands be univeral between 42's and 44's and the like while the cases like these aren't.---Definitely bulky on the wrist. I'd say part of that perception is because of the proportion size of the bands to the case, as the bands are puny compared to it. Definitely looks odd at first.---Touching the screen creates an odd sound and feeling kind of like saran wrap, and depending on the pressure it seemed delayed, as the protector seemed to have more distance between the screen than i would like, but it can definitely be acclimated to.---As a motorcycle rider, it worries me to think a hinge could come loose one day on a ride and the watch fly off because of the way the hinges for the bands are implemented, but using the tools to check the tightness of the hinge before that is a solution, just one i worry my lazy self would forget.I'd suggest to maybe implement the hinges into a closed design for no way of them falling out, or make the whole case and the bands one. Also, the screen would seem more responsive if the gap between it and the protector was minimized even more. And a more tactile click would have been great for the crown.If you keep on top of your stuff, and you like heavy duty protection for your apple watch, go with this for sure, but ONLY if you have the watch it specifies, as it won't stretch to accommodate the 44mm. This thing is no joke when it comes to protection.This product is great for protecting from nearly everything. I never knew an option like this was possible honestly. I would expect this to have the small agitations it has, and if i really needed the protection this thing boasts, i wouldn't even be worried about them. This watch case/band combo is a beast.

So far, so good. This apple watch waterproof case is about half the cost of the most popular brand. I purchased it more for protection than for waterproofing. However, I have used it to go kayaking and in the shower and it has stayed completely dry inside. Assembly couldn't be easier, and I like that it all snaps togetherfrom behind the watch face, so, if it were to ever pop open (which it wouldn’t) the watch would be pinned against the your wrist, so there’s almost no chance it would fall out. The silicone bands have a stretchiness to them, which makes it very comfortable. The heart rate monitor works perfectly fine through the case. And the thin plastic shield on the front of the case does not in anyway affect the usability of the touchscreen. I have had this watch case for a little over a month now, and I do have some light scratches on the protective case screen, and that is an excellent sign as it means I do not have scratches on my Apple Watch. This is precisely why I bought this case. I know that I work and play hard, and my watches get scuffed up and smashed frequently. This case has done its job so far.

I would highly recommend this watch band. I use it whenever I’m engaged in any activity that is likely to scratch any surface of my Apple Watch, including the screen. Everything is fully protected, including the buttons. The watch cover is made of durable hard plastic, while the band is soft and flexible. It has a full screen protector which is an absolute must for me. I also like that the watch is inserted from the back, and then the back cover is installed over it making it impossible for my watch to accidentally fall out ( as might be the case with covers that snap on from the front). Since I don’t use this band every day, I need my watch to go in and out of this case with ease, which is does. Comes with two bands, which means there are four straps to mix and match for just the right fit for everyone. Even though I don’t swim with my watch (yet) I like that this case is waterproof (adding another layer of protection for my watch). It seals great and keeps moisture and dust out of the case. My watch is always in pristine condition when I remove it from this case. A great product to protect your valuable Apple Watch. I have a Series 3 38mm Watch and this case fits perfectly. (I am purchasing another one today for my husband’s new 42mm Apple Watch).

After buying and trying multiple cases here on Amazon, I couldn’t find a case suitable for my needs, I work outside in rugged conditions, so I need a case that’ll totally protect my Apple Watch Series 3. After seeing good reviews online, I’d thought I give this give case a try. Upon opening the box, this case came with a dent on the screen protector, it is a little annoying but I will deal with it. Anyways it comes with preinstalled bands that feel elastically suitable for my size. Honestly it is soo elastic to the point that it will fit any size, so no need for the small sized bands unless your wrists are really small. If you’re not happy with the bands, then they provide screws to replace traditional bands. They also provide a tool to help remove the Apple Watch from the case since it is sealed to prevent water from going in. Now, for the main part, yes, this is waterproof like it states, but my only worry is the durability. The plastic that protects the screen and sensor feels very low cost, so I do not know how long it will last because I plan on keeping and protecting my Apple Watch. Overall, this is a great product for the great price.

To bulky

This is a great watch case/strap! Husband was looking for something to protect his watch while he works outside, in construction, in all weather types. This was exactly what he was looking for; fits great, not to big, fits watch snug and is water proof. He was very happy with this product!
