Do Samsung Galaxy M40 Comes With Waterproof Body?
Since most Samsung Galaxy smartphones come with IP67 or IP68 waterproof rating, so it’s likely to assume that the new Samsung Galaxy M40 might be waterproof. A waterproof smartphone can offer much more features and durability over a regular smartphone. For instance, you can take underwater selfies, talk with your loved ones in rain and much more.
You will be slightly disappointed since there is no official IP rating for this device. However, we will confirm that in our Samsung Galaxy M40 waterproof test.
To test any smartphone for its waterproofing capabilities, we have to perform a quick waterproof and dustproof test. These test will tell us whether the device is truly waterproof or not.
Before we start our test, let’s have a close look at device specifications, shall we?
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 Samsung Galaxy M40 is waterproof or not.
In our dustproof test, we will keep the device in a sandy environment with lots of grain and sand particles with a running fan around it. This situation mimics dust storms and will check how the device holds in such conditions.
After conducting the test on Samsung Galaxy M40, we can say that the device is not waterproof. However, the device is dustproof and will sustain any accidental water splashes or coffee spills. With that in mind, we advise users not to use this device for any water-related activities such as underwater photography, videography, etc.
