Is the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold waterproof?
The Pixel 9 Pro Fold has great specs, but how much water can it resist?
The"8" in the rating (the second number) reveals how much water it can resist and indicates that you can drop it in freshwater as deep as 1.5 meters for as long as 30 minutes without it suffering permanent damage. You should also avoid exposing your phone to highly chlorinated pools and salt water, which could seriously damage it by weakening the parts and causing corrosion. The rating indicates that the Android phone can withstand high-pressure water jets and dust, something you would find in food processing and pharmaceutical industry equipment.
