Starting with the Galaxy S7, Samsung’s flagship smartphones are IP68 rated. All three models of the new Galaxy S21 series are also no exception.
One of the Samsung Galaxy owners, who runs the Photo Owl Time Lapse YouTube channel, is currently broadcasting an experiment that has been going on for 11 days in a row (almost 250 hours). All this time, the smartphone is in the on state under water (in the aquarium). The smartphone is charged using a wireless station.
In the description of the video, the author says that he had to take out his smartphone twice to reset the timer, since the built-in stopwatch does not work for more than 99 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds.
Interestingly, the phone issued a moisture detection warning after being underwater for 117 hours 53 minutes. The screen at this moment practically did not respond to pressing, while the smartphone itself switched from one application to another. After 241 hours, it was decided to test the speakers, but they are almost inaudible.
Like other manufacturers with an IP68 rating, Samsung provides warranty service for smartphones that show signs of moisture penetration inside.
