Galaxy Z Fold 3, Z Flip 3 water test: How deep can they go?
#1
Quote:These foldable phones can withstand the occasional swim, but Samsung may be downplaying how water-resistant they actually are.

The Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3 are the first Samsung foldable phones to feature water resistance, so they should be totally fine to use in the rain, next to the kitchen sink or while in the bathroom. Even though they have different designs, these phones share the same IPX8 water-resistance rating: up to 5 feet (1.5 meters) of water for up to 30 minutes, according to Samsung's specifications. So we wanted to see what would happen in our own water experiments. As it happens, these phones can take a lot more water than their official rating.

Water resistance on phones is nothing new and we've tested it to extremes before. But foldable phones have more moving parts, like a hinge, so it's an entirely different design challenge to keep watertight.
