I purchased this case from Lifeproof directly because I was on a list to recieve 1 of the first ones sold> The case works perfectly! I will tell you though the there are a few things you need to pay attention to **BEFORE** you install the case.
1) MAKE SURE all of your fingerprint coding is done PRIOR to installation of the case
2) DO NOT SKIP THE WATER TEST !!!!!! There is a membrane barrier over the touch ID button and if it is compromised in ANY way , you need to know before installation
3) After you do the water test, and install the case on your phone be ***VERY, VERY CAREFULL*** when removing the touch sensor overlay. Make sure you push the membrane over the touch button (you will see what I am talking about when you get the case). After you smooth it out on the button, DO NOT pull accessively on it, but remove it slowly and smoothly or you will stretch out the membrane film. I had 2 of these and bought one for my buddy , he installed his a little impatiently and pulled it off too quick and the membrane pulled up along with the adhesive and would not re-seat properly........ lesson learned!
As for the case itself, I LOVE IT!! It works perfectly and is very consistent . You have to know that you should not use it gently (meaning do not just rest your finger for the touch ID lightly as this may not allow the scan), you can put normal pressur on it and you should. Everything else about this case work just as any other Lifeproof case. I have just ordered 2 more(1 for my wife phone and 1 for my cousin, both in White/Gray)
I am a stickler for detail and can honestly say I look for "everything "that could be an issue. I can say with all honesty that this is an excellent case and another Plus for Lifeproof. The only con is that it only comes in 2 colors right now but I am sure that will be changing shortly. And I think if you really wanted another color , you can use an Iphone 5 back because they are the same.
Hope this helps anyone who is not sure how well it works!!!

I bought this case as soon as it came it. I am one of those people who like to drop their phone and try to catch it with their foot, but wind up punting it across the room instead. Hence, I needed a case that provides a lot of protection. Most of friends raved about Lifeproof and I felt like I'd give it a try. Right out of the box I felt a bit ripped off because the front cover felt very flimsy without a phone inside of it. I decided that I spent the money so I would persevere. The "test" of the case to verify it is waterproof was actually really cool and my case passed on the first try. I dried it off and slapped my phone inside. This was 3 months ago. Having used this case I must say that it does a fabulous job with protection and the "flimsy" front that I originally worried about is all part of the design to make sure you do not lose any functionality with the touch screen. My phone has been dropped on the ground/table/deck, in puddles, the ocean, and God knows how many other places without any damage to my phone. Flawless protection. Audio quality is great with no notable distortion of sound quality while the case is on and using either the internal microphone speaker with the phone or the speakerphone setting. Same goes for music distortion. Buttons work well through the case but be aware the "silent" mode switch is inverted. The fit for the power/transfer cable is tight with aftermarket units but I didn't have a problem with the OEM Apple cable. There is much to love and little to hate about this case but, no review is complete without a few caveats on the frustrations created with this items use. I have only three things that bother me with this case:
1) The waterproof feature also makes it air proof and when sealing/closing the case, an air bubble can form in the home button recess causing the fingerprint scanner to not function. This is fixed by pressing your thumb into the recess while closing the case.
2) Finger Print Scanner frustrations. This ties in with the first one a bit, but you really have to make sure your fingerprints entered into your iPhone 5S are of your entire finger. I have entered my finger prints 3x and have got a good read now. I wound up intentionally placing my finger/thumb on the scanner from left to right to front to back over and over until it accepted the scan and using this method (versus the standard hold phone and place finger/thumb on scanner in basically the same manner repeatedly).
3) Headphone jack - If you do not have the standard iPhone earbuds or use the included audio jack adapter provided with the case you will struggle when trying to use the headphone jack. I use my phone to listen to music and podcasts during my work commute every morning and had to place the audio jack adapter in my car to allow me to hook it up to my car stereo. This is only an annoyance because of how often I have to screw in the adapter. If you don't use your phone like I do (or use the Apple earbuds) you won't ever notice.
Overall I'd recommend this case to anyone looking for a great means to protect your iPhone 5S. If you can address/live with the items that bug me you won't have any other complaints.

I am so disappointed in Amazon on this. This rating is due to the fact that Lifeproof will NOT warranty your phone if you purchase this case from Amazon. Only Lifeproof themselves or Verizon can sell the case with the (for the extra $10) Total Water Protection Plan warranty . Although Lifeproof lets you think you can just pay the $10 for this plan on their website, when you try to buy it, it automatically adds the case to your cart. Amazon dropped the ball on this and Lifeproof should not allow Amazon to sell, if we the consumer cannot buy the protection plan. Who cares that only the case has a warranty! Its the $ 800 phone I am trying to protect! I hope Amazon puts a disclaimer on their site, so people understand just exactly what they are buying, or NOT buying when they order this case.
