The LifeProof case for the Samsung Galaxy S III provides rugged protection in any environment in an incredibly sleek and low profile case. Every feature and function of the phone is accessible, including touch screen functionality, volume controls, the home and back keys, as well as the front and back cameras.

In addition, the speakers and microphones are protected while still providing great sound, and the headphone jack and charge port are covered from the elements until they are needed. The slim form factor is designed to easily slip in and out of pockets.

The Samsung Galaxy S III case comes in two versions, the LifeProof nuud, which allows users to touch the actual smartphone screen, for the ultimate touch-screen experience; and the LifeProof fre, incorporating a built-in scratch protector for users that want additional screen protection. 

"We're very excited about our highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy S III case," said Fredrik Tortensson, LifeProof Executive Vice President, Global Sales and Business Development. "The nuud especially is really a game-changer because it's the first and only waterproof, drop proof case without a screen cover for the Galaxy S III. The technology behind the design is something quite special and unique to LifeProof."

Both the nuud and the fre are available at Best Buy and on the LifeProof website: $89.99 for the nuud and $79.99 for the fre.

Both LifeProof nuud and fre for Samsung Galaxy S III offer these benefits:

• Fully submersible and completely waterproof down to 6.6 feet / 2 meters for 1 hour
• Thinnest and lightest all-protective case ever made for the Galaxy S III
• Complete access to all buttons, ports, functions and features
• Ingress protection rated to the highest level at IP-68 and completely sealed from water and dust particles
• Shock proof to Military Standard 810F-516 to withstand unexpected drops and shocks from 6.6 feet / 2 meters
• LifeProof's CrystalClear double anti-reflective (AR) coated camera-grade glass lens delivers the sharpest images possible, with perfect camera flash operation
• Maximum sound output and clarity
