Water Resistance of Apple Watch is Spectacular and Shows with New Evidence

The Apple Watch out unscathed from a jump in springboard from 10 meters high and 1,200 meters swim. When Apple introduced its smart watch many users wondered if this would be waterproof like most smartwatch market rivals. The company did not rule on this issue in either keynote which he dedicated to Apple Watch, so the first thing we found directly on the website of the company, which is aimed at the “water resistance” of the Watch.

The company recommended not dip the watch into any liquid but claimed that this was completely resistant to splashes, sweat, rain water and all kinds of light contact with the water. However, the first tests of resistance were not long in coming, and they discovered that Apple Watch was much more waterproof than it looked and passed without any problem a dive of 15 minutes to less than one meter deep.

Now, the technology blogger Ray Maker has decided to go one step further with testing water resistance Apple Watch, and has subjected the watch too much tougher conditions. As he explains in his blog, most of the videos we’ve seen so far the response showed SmartWatch in small pools, but we did not know so far how aquatic resisted high-intensity activities such as professional swimming.

Therefore, Maker decided to go to the public pool in his hometown to test how far he could reach the strength of Apple Watch. He started doing some laps with the watch strapped to his wrist, completing exactly 1200 meters swim. Once out of the water, the device seemed to act with complete normality.

Apple Watch was also subjected to a pressure equivalent to 40m depth

Later, he proved that such Apple Watch Maker responded to the impacts from water, so that made two jumps from the springboard of the pool, the first from 5 meters and the second from 10. As on previous occasions, Watch out completely unpunished and operating normally.

Finally, it was decided to perform a final test using a tool that simulates the pressure at different depths. Although apparently the Apple Watch is only 1 meter submersible IPX7 certification by the machine came to simulate depth of 40 meters. Surprisingly, after that everything it seemed to remain as before.

Of course, as we read on Dcrainmaker, these tests may not have an immediate response at the time of realizing but eventually finished manifesting some kind of problem. The Maker himself what points in their conclusions and, of course, does not endorse any user to perform this type of activity taking Apple Watch if not to pursue any research or documentary.
