Is Oppo Find X Waterproof smartphone?

Oppo is a BBK owned Chinese smartphone manufacturer company which launched their latest flagship device Oppo find X. It is getting huge media coverage as it might be the first complete bezel-less smartphone of the year 2018. They have achieved it with the help of a motorized section in Oppo find X which reveals its hidden cameras and sensor. The most interesting part is the camera department as both the front facing as well as backside camera housings are in the motorized section. This brings the waterproofing capabilities of Oppo find X as water easily goes inside moving part. SO to test this, we are performing Oppo Find X waterproof test.

Before proceeding with Oppo Find X waterproof test, let us discuss some of its specs. Since Oppo find X is a flagship device, it has some premium specs bumps which you will appreciate the most.

Oppo Find X Splash Proof Test

In Splash proof test, we will test the device to withstand an accidental water splash to see whether the device survives in such condition. So when we subject Oppo find X to an artificial water splash, it immediately gets water damage and switches off itself. The water goes inside the motorised chamber of the device. This shows that the device is not splashproof at all.

Oppo Find X Rainwater test

In this test, we are going to suspend the device in artificial rain environment. This also mimics the showering conditions as well. Later on, we will see if the device withstands these conditions or not.

Since the device is already failed in our splashproof test, we don’t have any hope in the rainwater test as well. Since there are many gaps in the device for water to go inside. The chances of surviving rainwater test are pretty low.
