Sure, your iPhone 7 Plus can probably stand up to a little water, but if you’d like to dive deep you might not want to press your luck. That’s why ValsTech is seeking funding for a new LenzO underwater housing designed for the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. As with the iPhone 6/6s version, the iPhone 7 housing is rated for depths down to 100m / 328ft, and features an optical dome lens, total phone control while under water, a selfie lens, and dual tripod mounts. Unlike the previous LenzO housing, though, the iPhone 7 variety is also buoyant.
LenzO is designed for recording videos and snapping photos underwater, and includes different color correction filters to compensation for various bodies of water. The case has a wake/sleep button for the phone, a camera start/stop trigger, swing arm actuators and a secure seal latch.
The underwater housing doesn’t require any special camera apps. Users can easily toggle between photo, video, panorama, and slow-mo modes while using the housing.
ValsTech is offering Kickstarter backers one LenzO for iPhone 7 housing for pledges of at least $ 230. The planned retail price will be about $ 400. Shipments to backers are estimated to start this upcoming April, and will be available globally.
