Water-resistant devices are designed to withstand exposure to water without being damaged. These devices often have specific ratings, such as the IP67 or IP68 standards, which indicate their level of protection against water ingress. Common examples include smartphones, smartwatches, and cameras that can be used in wet conditions or even submerged in water for a limited time. The technology behind water resistance typically involves seals, gaskets, and coatings that prevent water from entering sensitive components. While water-resistant devices can handle splashes and brief immersion, they are not completely waterproof, so users should still exercise caution in extreme conditions.
