Hello, I have had my Life Proof case for my IPhone 4 for probably a year and a half to two years now. My case also has the charge door to open, so you don't have to take it out of the case either to charge.
I use a BlueTooth headset with mine, so I don't even have to take the plug out of the headphone slot. I have had a great experience with it and love the fact that it is totally waterproof. No worries about taking it out of my pocket in the rain! I will be getting an IPhone 5 in the next two weeks and am planning on getting the Life Proof case for it as well.
