I leave it on 24/7. I love the sleekness of the lifeproof case and the feel in your hand is nice too. There's just nothing that can replicte the peace of mind that having the case on gives. I've dropped my phone a few times and absolutely no damage whatsoever. I can use my phone in the pool without worry. The sweat and moisture from my pocket no longer gives me that "the acessory is not compatible with your iphone" error message even though nothing is plugged in. Such an awesome case. Highly recommend it.

Best Beach Case?

I had one but returned it to BB after a few days, I just couldn't get used to the air pillow and clicking noise when typing. I'm thinking that I didn't keep it long enough to let the screen "settle" in.
Yes you are right. That does happen at first but goes away after a little bit of use and time.
New Beach Case Design For This Year
Hey folks. I know this is sort of an old thread, but I thought it was worth mentioning that UNIEA has a new smartphone and iPhone beach case called the Beach Pouch. It is not a waterproof shell case, but rather is more like a sealable plastic bag that can pretty much hold any size smartphone (I think they picture the GS4 inside it in the photos).
It seals by way of a triple, zip-lok-style zipper, which then gets further protected by a flap and two snap-on buttons. The design purports to protect your smartphone up to 120 degrees, and is water and sand resistant. It also has two clear panes, so that you can use your device while it is in the pouch.
All of these features are pretty standard on other iPhone beach cases, but what I really like about it is the adjustable shoulder strap. Lots of other cases are just a case, but the shoulder strap lets you sling your iPhone around your shoulder. It's good for a walk on the beach, or just making sure that it stays close.
For $15 bucks, I think it's a good value. Worth checking it out: http://www.uniea.com/p/378/beach-pouch-iphone-beach-case
