Let's have a look which cases are available currently am aware of five different models. Let's start with the original case from Xiaomi the cameras lights in and fits perfectly into the case when closing the door the ceiling seems to be very tight. You can feel it when trying to open the door.

Have to pull strongly in general. It makes a very good impression in terms of quality the cap also locks the case perfectly and it seems a very tight and sealed. There is no visible gap between door and case there is enough space around the lens which will take a look on later when discussing big nothing.

The buttons are comfortably depressed and you don't have to push hard. There's some reported issues of broken buttons this Seem to be fine on this model. Keep you updated on my blog about this issue.
It is also very easy to get the camera back out of the case again. Be careful when ordering the original case is there fakes out there? R it's hard to spot the difference from photos. The fake ones also have the E logo on top of the cap in contrast to the fake ones.
The original case comes in a box similar to the one of the camera. A GoPro adapter with 1/4 inch thread is included. The next model I want to show you is the 60 meter model.
It is the only model available which is 60 meter waterproof. All the other ones are 40 meter waterproof. It can be recognized but the screws around the lens housing and the red sealing the quality also seems to be very good.

The ceiling doesn't keep the door shut itself as tight as the original model but the cap as unyielding pressure and it seems to be locked very tight. There's not the slightest.
Gap between the door and the case the buttons also work very well. You don't have Push hard and if downside here that water take some time to dry up around them.
This model comes with a GoPro Quick connector. It is very easy to get the camera back out of the case. Again, you have to be a little careful when opening the case as the cap might get loose but when the cap is hooked in the case seems to be locked superbly.

The next model I call pre-order model as it was the first underwater case which was available for pre-order at many retailers. When you open the case, you will notice that the cap gets loose easily, which is very bothersome.
The door doesn't stick to the case from the Feeling alone the camera fits in perfectly and the cap locks case and door very well. It doesn't seem that the loose cap is an issue when the case is closed.
The quality is not very convincing you can see the button is not centered in the kept opening but worse there is a gap visible between case and door but the area is covered by the ceiling you have to push the buttons way harder than the ones at the other two models, but the gist work fine. This case also comes with the GoPro pick.
But what's also very bothersome with this case this hard to get the camera back out of the case again. It is stuck pretty well inside the case and you have to fiddle around for some time to get it out. The next one I want to show you is the case from kingma it is available with different colors some photos. Don't show the king my logo on top. So that might be look likes from this one as well.
The most noticeable difference of the kingdom of cases and look-alikes is the squared length housing. I can't tell about the quality as I didn't get one myself, but I have some test pictures to show big knitting later on. The last of the five models I'm aware of is this one it looks Bit like the pre-order model, but the cap is rounded towards the front.
It is also available with different cap colors. I've seen black green and white ones as this question comes up very often like xiaomi Yi camera cannot be used with the GoPro case here. You can see a GoPro Hero 3 case on the left. Anna is Shake em case on the right.
The lens and the buttons are located at different positions on the xiaomi camera.
Now you've seen the cases Let's test the water resistance. This is Basic test I do before throwing the case with the camera into the water be aware. It's just to check the basic water resistance as water pressure several meters below surface is not considered.
If you go diving with your camera, I'd recommend doing the first time just with the case to check it. I folded some paper towels which soak up what the strongly and put them in the cases.
Let's place them into a bowl of water. I pressed the button several times to check them and then let them stay underwater for some time. When you are doing the test, make sure. The water temperature is about the same as the room temperature if the water is too cold.
They might occur condensed water within the case and you can't be sure if it came from outside. Well in general fucking is a problem for all the action cameras and the cases there are anti-fog strips, which you can stick inside the case to get better results. You'll find more information on my blog and in the video description the case has stayed in the water for about 30 minutes when you take them out make sure you try them.
So that the towels inside the case don't get wet. Well, let me just summarize the result every paper towel State Drive during my test. I want Show you each result real quick.
The original case you can see no wet spot on. All that all same result for the 60 meter model, no bad spots visible on the towel as well. Also, the pre-order model which showed some gaps between door and case state drive for this case. I can also show you some test footage at it during this shooting the inside of the case also, stay dry.
Now, let's take a look at big letting take she only has a very wide angle. If there is not enough space around the lens or the case sticks out next to the lens. You will notice darker edges in your picture for that reason. I filmed a white wall to give you more contrast at first.
Let's take a look at the original case. It shows excellent results in video mode more important is photo mode is the video is cropped at the bottom and at the top to a 16 to 9 format in photo mode. You can see It's just a No visible on the right.
It seems that the lens of my camera is not centered in the housing of the camera. I will take a closer. Look at this. When I do a video about the lens and focus problem of the xiaomi camera. If you switch on lens rectification, you don't notice any big letting in video mode as well as in photo mode next up the 60 meter model. It also shows excellent results.
It has just a little more bigger thing than the original case, but you can hardly notice the difference also in photo mode the Edges are a little darker and a More washed out compared to the original model when switching on lens rectification and settings.
There is no big meeting in video mode as well as in photo mode Let's Take a look at the pre-order model. You can see pretty strong signal thing in video mode as the edges of the case of visible. It's even worse when switching to photo mode the edges of the case are clearly visible here despite the fact that my camera has an issue that the lens is shifted a little to the right. You can see dark Corners at the left side of the frame. I'm as well. So when the lens is.
That you will get pretty dark edges on both sides of the frame. This problem can only be solved by turning on lens rectification.
The settings then vignette thing is gone in video mode as well as in photo mode. I don't have the king my case myself, but I got some test results where can see pretty dark edges in photo mode when lens rectification is turned off. I got test results from several users on my blog. So check out their photos there and compare them yourself.
So what's my Conclusion. My favorite case is the original one which showed the best. In all areas, very good quality the best cap design and locking mechanism and no big netting problem at all. Second place for the 60 meter model also, very good quality and a superb ceiling not the slightest gap between case and door the cap may come off when opening.
That's a little bothersome but a big plus is that it is 60 meter waterproof. If you want to go diving I wouldn't buy a pre-order model again the cap gets loose very easily and it's pretty hard to get the camera out of the case. Yes, and that is very bothersome.
Also big nothing looks pretty bad. I have not tasted the king McKay's but the test photos show some dignity thing worse than the original and the 60 meter model. So I'm not excited about this one as well the round the cab model also seems to have very little space around the lens.
