this is a mesh bag we're going to be
taking these phones down 60 feet in salt
water to find out which ones survive to
how deep if any of them come along for the
ride we're going to go down 60 feet but of course the initial test has to happen
here on the surface are we lying or do these phones even work
iPhone boom working
G5 boom that one's working too Moto X oh
yeah baby that one's working Z5 premium
it's got a 4K screen let's see if that 4K screen survives Galaxy S7 look at
that AMOLED screen in the in the direct sunlight not too shabby hey finally the
Kera whatever the crap this thing is we
only like this one because it actually has a swimming Android robot as its boot
screen this one really thinks it's tough we're going to find out if it really
is so our first test at 10 ft or about 3
m yielded some results that if we had an
ounce of gray matter in our heads wouldn't surprise us much the LG G5
which advertises no water resistance at all was dead immediately but also some
results that did surprise me I really
thought the Sony Z5 premium would last at least for a little while but it was
dead already at 10 ft this made me feel
very uncertain about whether any of the phones would still be alive and the Moto
xpls water repellent coating did did nothing to calm my fears it was
completely dead 0 for three so far and
the iPhone 6s was no different one press
of the lock button confirmed that I was down at least four of my six phones
right out of the gate but the Galaxy S7
came through for me look at that its Ingress Protection or IP rating of 6 fet
which you can learn more about here by the way has kept it alive at 10 ft under
the salt water bam but what about the
Kera duraforce yes we have another winner it
is officially a twoh horse race time to
pack them up and go
deeper so at 20 ft we continue our story
or rather some of us do the kerad dura Force breathed its last somewhere
between 10 and 20 ft under the surface
of the ocean but what of the Galaxy S7 oh yes so it's rated at 30 minutes to
a depth of 1.5 M or about 5 ft in fresh
water but it is actually managed four times that depth so far in salt water
but how low can it go our next stop is
30 ft
down and it works amaz okay hold on a
second so this was actually a little confusing for me at the time because I
wasn't looking at it when the screen spazzed out but uh there you have it
while the Galaxy S7 might not have made it to the awards ceremony it does come
out the big winner in our seawater waterproofness test now just to ensure
the accuracy of our results and that none of the other phones had sprung back
to life I gave each of them a quick double check under the water before
continuing the rest of the dive they all ConEd out by 30
ft with the Galaxy S7 actually holding
up the best what we're going to do is
we're going to get these into fresh water and then
alcohol and then we're actually going to attempt recovering them but for now
thank you guys for tuning into our ocean
