Two new IP68-rated waterproof phone cases from MOTTERU went on sale on June 4 at retail stores and online, including major e-commerce platforms. The lineup includes a floating model (MOT-WPC04) and a glow-in-the-dark model (MOT-WPC05).
Floating Waterproof Case (MOT-WPC04)
The MOT-WPC04 carries the highest IP68 waterproof and dustproof rating and features a float design thanks to a cushion structure on the back of the case. If a smartphone accidentally falls into the water, it is designed to stay near the surface rather than sinking, making it easier to retrieve.
The case supports touch operation, calls, and photo taking while the smartphone is inside, making it well-suited for watersports and other aquatic activities. A neck strap is included so both hands can remain free.
MOTTERU Direct regular price: ¥3,310 (tax included) — limited-time discount to ¥1,980 (tax included) (¥1,330 off)
Available at Rakuten / Yahoo! Shopping / Amazon
Colors: Almond Milk / Pale Iris
Float Design
A buoyancy-providing cushion on the back of the case means that even if the smartphone falls into water, it is less likely to sink and easier to locate.
Luminescent Waterproof Case (MOT-WPC05)
The MOT-WPC05 uses a photoluminescent material in the case body that absorbs light and emits a soft glow in the dark. This makes the smartphone easier to find at night pools, camping sites, music festivals, and other nighttime outdoor activities.
Like the MOT-WPC04, it carries the IP68 rating and includes a neck strap.

Colors: Almond Milk / Pale Iris / Smoky Black (Smoky Black scheduled for late June release)
Luminescent Design
The photoluminescent material charges in light and glows softly in dark environments, helping users locate their smartphone at night pools, camping trips, and similar settings. The subtle glow also lends itself to photos and social media posts.
Shared Features (MOT-WPC04 / MOT-WPC05)
IP68 Rating
Both models achieve the highest IP68 waterproof and dustproof rating, providing protection at the ocean, pool, bath, sandy beach, and other outdoor settings.
Use Your Phone While It's Inside the Case
The high-transparency material supports touchscreen operation, scrolling, and calls while the phone remains in the case. Camera use is also supported so leisure memories can be captured on the spot. (Note: Fingerprint authentication is not supported.)
Clip Design for Easy Opening and Closing
A sealing clip that opens and closes with light force makes the case easy to handle even with long nails, and the smartphone can be taken in and out smoothly.
Compatible with Large Smartphones
- MOT-WPC04: fits up to approximately 85 mm (W) × 180 mm (H) × 15 mm (D)
- MOT-WPC05: fits up to approximately 80 mm (W) × 175 mm (H) × 15 mm (D)
Both cases can accommodate a smartphone even with a standard phone case still attached.
