Vivo iQoo Neo smartphone is just launched in India and it comes with all the latest features and technology. It is packing a massive 6.38-inch display with a resolution 1080 by 2340 pixels. The device doesn’t come cheap so it is raising some serious concerns among the customers. Since the new Vivo iQoo Neo comes within a mid-range budget, it might not be waterproof at all. To test this further, we will conduct Vivo iQoo Neo waterproof test. So let’s jump into it.
Vivo is a very innovating company when it comes to mobile features. It certainly caches eyes when someone uses this flagship looking device. However, customers want to know whether it comes with official IP67/6 waterproof ratings on not. So today, we are going to conduct Vivo iQoo Neo waterproof test to find out the truth.
Is Vivo iQOO Neo waterproof device?
A waterproof device contains special IP ratings. An IP rating is an international standard which is used to define levels of sealing effectiveness of modern smartphones. These IP ratings are presented in the form of IP followed by two numbers.
Well, looking upon the official website of Vivo, no waterproof ratings are shown for the device. Remember that this device comes in a mid-range price segment, which makes it incredibly hard to waterproof this device. It is still disappointing that a phone in this price range is not shipping with official waterproof IP68 ratings.
warning
An IP rating is an international standard which is used to define levels of sealing effectiveness of modern smartphones. These IP ratings are presented in the form of IP followed by two numbers. The IP68 rating is the best that a smartphone can hold. However, it is important to note that this IP testing is done against fresh water. So you might end with slightly different results against salt water or other liquids such as soft drinks.
Whether your device comes with an IP rating or not, you should always take care while using your smartphone device or tablet around water.
Since the official website doesn’t contain any reliable info about the device waterproofing capabilities, so we are going to conduct our own test. Get ready for the Vivo iQoo Neo waterproof test. But before that, have a look at device specifications:
In this waterproof test, we are going to put the device in water for 1 minute in a small water tank. After 1 minute, we will test the device for any abnormalities. This test will give us a rough idea of whether the new Vivo iQoo Neo is waterproof or not.
After conducting a waterproof test on Vivo iQoo Neo, we can see that the device speaker stopped working after water immersion. It’s shocking to see that the camera still works after the waterproof test. But sadly, the speaker sound was fully distorted and not usable after the test. This shows us that the new Vivo iQoo Neo is not waterproof at all. However, you will not find any problem if you accidentally spill your coffee over it. Additionaly this device is dustproof so you dont need to worry about dust particles. However, we recommend not to use this device in rainy weather.
