SeaLife SportDiver Ultra Housing for iPhone

SeaLife SportDiver Ultra Housing for iPhone

The SeaLife SportDiver Ultra Housing for iPhone is a compact and lightweight underwater housing for smartphones. The SportDiver Ultra Housing allows divers to take photos and videos with their smartphones up to a depth of 40 metres. The SportDiver can accommodate most Android models, including all larger Samsung S Series Ultra models and Google's Pixel range, and all iPhones from iPhone 8 to iPhone 15 Pro Max. The free SportDiver app is available from the App Store or Play Store and works with the current and previous generation operating system. Check out our SportDiver compatibility and fit guide.

The robust housing is made of polycarbonate, stainless steel, aluminium and optical-grade glass. The SportDiver Ultra casing is "heavy duty" but not heavy, weighing less than 808 grams, is lightweight for travel and offers near-neutral buoyancy in water, depending on which smartphone model is used.

Easy to hold and use, the SportDiver Ultra offers a large print button and control buttons on the back for easy operation, even with diving gloves. Snorkellers and divers can get more creative with their photos or video recordings by using advanced camera settings. Adjust zoom, exposure (EV), auto/manual focus, white balance, hue, lens selection, RAW+JPEG mode and video stabilisation (on available phone models).

The app playback mode displays photos and videos in full size with a vertical thumbnail strip, so you can easily find your images. Videos are played automatically when selected. All files are also saved to the phone's movie roll. The SportDiver Ultra case automatically connects to your smartphone and the SportDiver app via Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) 5 wireless technology. There are no cables or buttons touching the phone and power consumption is extremely low for both the phone and the housing, which is powered by two AAA batteries that last more than 50 hours of continuous use.

For better image results, the SportDiver Ultra comes with a removable underwater colour correction filter, which restores natural underwater colours. The red filter can be easily attached or removed underwater and features a safety lanyard to prevent loss. The SportDiver Ultra housing features seven 1/4"-20 tripod mounts that can be fitted to any lamp or flex connect trays with standard tripod threads, such as SeaLife's range of Sea Dragon underwater photo/video lamps.

For phone safety and protection, the SportDiver Ultra has a sturdy spring and rubber grip tabs that keep the smartphone securely in place and provide shock protection. The SportDiver Ultra has "Dual Leak Alarms", including an internal moisture alarm and a vacuum pressure alarm that alerts the diver with on-screen alerts, audio and LED signals in the unlikely event that the waterproof seal is compromised and there is loss of pressure in the case or moisture is detected. The SportDiver Ultra's door is sealed with a TPE O-ring and a robust cam-lock seal that easily and securely locks the waterproof door. To prevent interior fogging due to residual moisture, the SportDiver Ultra uses the anti-fogging "Moisture Muncher" capsule that prevents fogging and internal condensation.

Important: Some settings may not be available depending on the make/model of the phone. Depending on conflicting settings, settings may be blocked or inaccessible. For example, the Portrait (background blur) setting is only available on iPhones with multiple lenses. The Lens selection setting may not include all available phone lenses; the Telephoto lens is not available for Android phones. Check the App Store and Play Store for updates to the SportDiver app.
