And they doesn't guarantee that your phone will immediately work after a dip. (For instance, Apple recommends you let a phone dry for at least five hours before attempting to charge it.). And you should probably be warned that none of these manufacturers need to help you if their water-resistance fails. Even though these companies claim their phones are water-resistant, none of their warranties protect against water damage. In fact, Apple, Sony and Samsung all explicitly say that water damage isn't covered. Plus, each company places tiny stickers inside their phones that bleed when exposed to water, so they can tell how the damage occurred.

Could you successfully argue that faulty waterproofing is the reason the circuits got wet? Perhaps; no company wants angry customers, When Samsung's Galaxy S7 Active drowned, the company agreed to replace any water-damaged S7 Active within a year of purchase, More generally, a Samsung representative told us they'd perform investigations into water-damaged phones if a customer asked, and a Sony rep told us the company would replace a phone that had been water damaged in the first year of purchase "as long as the phone is not used in environments where the advertised IP rating limitations are exceeded."But iphone x case 9to5mac you'd have to trust these companies to honor those unwritten promises, when they could simply use the water damage as proof you broke your own phone, And remember, Apple doesn't promise anything at all..

Put another way: Maybe I should stop throwing my Galaxy S7 into hot tubs. The latest, greatest phones can now survive a dip in the pool. But how manufacturers create and define "water resistance" may surprise you. That's the sound of your phone impacting a pot of tomato sauce. Or a swimming pool. Or -- God forbid -- a toilet bowl.

Update, August 20, 2018: The Fitbit Charge 3 has been officially announced, replacing the iphone x case 9to5mac Charge 2 reviewed below, The new model delivers several key new features, including waterproofing and a larger screen, while retaining the same price as the Charge 2, The original Charge 2 review follows, Lots of things track steps now, Tons of trackers and watches -- and even phones -- do a good enough job, In 2016, you buy a fitness band for its app and software, Fitbit does what it does so well and so simply, and across enough platforms and phones and social networks, that it wins out as a platform of choice..

And the best overall Fitbit hardware you can get right now? That's the new Charge 2, which costs $150 in the US, £130 in the UK, AU$250 in Australia. (A slightly pricier special edition at $180, £150 or AU$290 with a different band finish.) It's the follow-up to our previous favorite (an no longer available), the Charge HR.
