The Apple iPhone 5 case, the first nuud smartphone case offered, will be sold at Best Buy and on the LifeProof web site beginning on July 7, 2013 for $89.99. The nuud case for the Samsung Galaxy SIII will soon follow.

LifeProof's patent-pending Screenless Technology uses a compression lock system that forms a waterproof seal between the case and the device touchscreen – delivering complete four-proof protection while maintaining perfect clarity and touch. The first of its kind, the LifeProof nuud case is screen-free, yet is still waterproof, with an IP68 rating for submerging 6.6 ft./2m underwater for one hour. The new case is also built to survive a 6.6 ft./2m. drop and exceeds military specifications for shock, drop and vibration protection.

"The LifeProof nuud design is ground-breaking and offers an entirely new level in waterproof protection that has never been done before. Now smartphone users can get perfect visual clarity and touch experience on their phone, without worrying about dropping it or getting it wet," said Gary Rayner, LifeProof founder. "The LifeProof nuud case for iPad launched last year with a similar design has already proven that you do not need a cover on the screen to offer full protection."

LifeProof nuud for Samsung Galaxy SIII and iPhone 5 offer these benefits:

• First screen-free, all-protective case on the market
• Thinnest and lightest all-protective case available
• Fully submersible and completely waterproof
• Totally sealed from dirt and dust
• Complete access to all buttons, ports, functions and features
• Maximum sound output and clarity
• Anti-reflective optical glass camera lens

The LifeProof nuud case for iPad, a CES Innovation award winner, is available now at Apple retail stores and the Apple Online Store (www.apple.com). All LifeProof products are sold at www.lifeproof.com.
