Pelican 1050 Micro Case (Yellow/Clear)

Best product ever. Nothing ever gets wet in this. Water protection amazing love the size

I bought these as a gift for my son for his boat. He can store his phone and other small items in this water proof box.

Useful

I wanted a place to store a GoPro Hero 7 and protect it from the elements until I deploy it. Fits great along with a waterproof camera housing making this a grab and go solution. I didn't notice in the write-up that the yellow internal material is soft. This was a welcome surprise. If you remove the yellow material the case is otherwise completely translucent clear polycarbonate (I presume that's what it is anyway). The clear cover looks wimpy in photos but it is in fact quite substantial and is as thick as the rest of the product.. The addition of the little carabiner is a nice touch. If you don't like it on the case reuse it elsewhere. Another feature I didn't notice in photos is that there is a place for a MOLLE type strap on each side of the case. This would allow you to attach it to a pack or something and also allow you to wrap a cord around it if you were twitchy about relying on just the single latch to prevent an unintentional opening. Overall a well built and well engineered product. Nice job Pelican.

The Pelican 1050 Micro Case (Yellow/Clear) is a small, rugged, and waterproof protective case designed to safeguard electronics like iPhones, GoPros, cameras, and other small devices. It features a crushproof, airtight design, ensuring that your gear stays dry and secure even in harsh conditions. The case is compact, lightweight, and includes a rubber liner for added shock protection. It’s perfect for travel, outdoor adventures, or any situation where your devices need reliable protection from water, dust, and impact. This a perfect case for camera gear for small point and shoot. My only long term concern is the latch eventually wearing down since it is plastic.

This box us the perfect water day accessory. It's very durable, snaps securely closed and easy to take along. Fits my phone, keys and cards well. The only thing I would like is if the carabiner were more durable, but I changed it out for my own. I've bought 2 for friends and they also love them.

Great product

This is my second Pelican case for my cell phone while kayaking. The first is 1200, very good, but kind of bulky. This is the perfect size. I use two velcro strips to tie it to the bungee cord in front of the cockpit. The case can hold my SG5 phone with a bulky case and a ring of keys. To prevent overheating under strong direct sunlight, I put a patch of aluminum foil in the lid. But I'm sure how effective that will be. Applied a little grease on the locking plastic for easier lock and unlock. Very easy unlock to take the phone out, and put it back in and lock. I have tried a few alternatives, such as waterproof case, ziplock bag, etc. This case is the most effective solution for kayaking. But I've NOT tested it in the capsizing situation. I think it will be fine as long as it is locked tight and not submerged in water more than a little while before I can upright the boat and get back.
