no phone is water proof.. they actually cannot say "waterproof" about products, because that defines something that is physically fully immune to water.. which will never fukking happen
s8 also says resistant.. it also has a water damage tab... it is also void if damaged by water. don't ever let them word play you brehs... no phone or any tech item will ever say waterPROOF and allow you get a free one based on that... EVER.. and i'll make it real quick
"The Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 edge devices
have been certified to an IP68 rating. The Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 edge are built to do
more, in more places. With an IP68 rating, they’re water resistant to a maximum depth of 1.5m
for up to 30 minutes, and are protected from dust, dirt and sand - all without the need for extra
caps or covers."
ok so 1.5 meters and 30 mins right? so what if i go in the pool at 3 meters for 45 minutes? how can samsung know the difference? what if it's the tub for an hour with me? they would never know what was really a defective phone vs you just overdoing it.. and anytime someone wants a new phone, for free since its warranty, just hold your phone under water for a day and new $1000 phone.
there are however, varying degrees of resistance.. and that's what i was asking about
