THE BEST WATERPROOF SPEAKERS FOR BLASTING TUNES DURING ANY OUTDOOR ADVENTURE ''Sony waterproof ''
There are a lot of companies that produce waterproof headphones, but their effectiveness has not been proven meaningfully, and today Sony is trying to break this barrier by marketing its MP3-player headphones in a water bottle to attract consumers and prove the effectiveness of its product.
Although the device started production some time ago, the company used their new method to market the product in New Zealand.
In the world of smartphones, which has become the common topic for all the hours of our days that we live in, the barriers of the challenge have passed between the specifications of the phone, which are the quality of the camera, the processor and the random memory. The High End phones have become the common thing now and are not something strange to many of us. The challenge now is to the phone’s ability to withstand working under water, and we may soon see a company launch a phone that can
withstand the pressure it faces when it is used in space, who knows?
In the field of water and dust resistance, Sony has distinguished the design giant of phones, televisions and all smart devices that exist in our lives. It was a pioneer in the issuance of the first waterproof phone, the first phone of the Z category, which was called the Sony Xperia Z, which outperformed all competing phones in the market in being water-resistant, as it can be used under water at a depth of one and a half meters for a period of up to thirty minutes. In fresh water.
Certainly, the objection here will not be about the available height, duration, or type of water that the phone can be used in, so the phone was water resistant even if it was water manufactured by Sony itself and in the depth of a small cup of water, this technology was a real qualitative leap in the world of smartphones and won loud applause from Many people, although this new technology had collateral damage represented in the corruption of some devices after their owners used them under water, which caused a burn to the screen, weakness of touch, or other problems, but if the collateral damage was multiplied, and the uses were defined, this technology will remain impressive and a big point in favor of Sony in the world of smartphones.
and now what? Any news? Yes, here is Sony - despite announcing the presence of IP68 protection against water, which is the best so far and after several years - it is back to raise the controversy again about the new water resistance technology, to come with a loud voice:
Do not use your phone under water.
If you have scrolled through the support page for Sony phones about protection against water and dust, then you have definitely seen several statements about the new Sony policy, including:
Remember not to use the appliance under water.
"The IP rating of your device was achieved under special laboratory conditions in the standby mode, so you should not use your phone under water, such as taking pictures."
A device rated IP68 that was tested under continuous immersion in fresh water up to a depth of 1.5 meters for thirty minutes, now Sony comes with a new tone about it and about the device's water resistance capabilities despite the IP68 license, it seems that Sony is not comfortable about how you use your phone, the water may cause damage to it It will need to be repaired under warranty.
Note that above the statement that Sony is talking about reaching the rating of IP68 under "special laboratory cases".
- The language changes on the same page, saying:
Sony devices have been tested for their water resistance when gently placed in a container filled with water and submerged to a depth of 1.5 meters. After thirty minutes passed inside the bowl, the device was gently lifted and its properties and advantages tested.
You can see what Sony is doing. It says that the headphones have not been tested in swimming pools, for example, as some water was sprayed around the Xperia device quickly. In a comment on Sony Mobile Support,
- the writer makes the same point:
“Moving or operating the device while it is submerged was not tested during laboratory tests. There are also many environmental factors that we could not access, for example water movements or changes in water pressure during movement, if there is a device that was used under water, we do not recommend submerging our Xperia Z5 in water. ”
This new disclaimer made its debut for the Xperia Z3 + and Z4 in May of 2015. The new wording surprised us at the time, but we thought it was only aimed at the device's headphone for some reason. But; However, the same evacuation appeared at the launch of the Xperia Z5, as it became evident that Sony was placing new restrictions on the water resistance of its devices.
Now, let's ask, why might this be such a big problem? Well, the propaganda around the water resistance of Sony phones has focused on taking pictures while swimming and in swimming pools. Most of the advertisements for Sony's Z-series devices include images taken underwater.
Sony headphones are water and dust resistant ... the best choice for athletes
Let's take the Xperia Z3 as an example. The Sony press conference for the launch of the phone focused heavily on the fact that the phone has "the maximum level of protection against water", which made the phone called a "fully waterproof smartphone". The advertisement video for the phone even showed people swimming and diving underwater in the pool and taking pictures.
We will definitely not forget the numberless pictures of Sony that showed people taking pictures underwater to preserve their memories.
Speaking of mixed messages. Until now, the water resistance feature has been a key advertisement for Sony, and currently, Sony is trying to roll it back. So what changed Sony's heart? We can only think that it has to do with the warranty. Certainly, there are a large number of users who have sabotaged their devices in a swimming pool or the like, and tried to repair it through the warranty from the company. If the entrances are not closed well, then Sony will be facing a large volume of repair requests for such incidents, which users will certainly demand for nothing as a defect in the industry that did not perform what the company really announced.
Whatever the reason, Sony should be very clear about the reason for changing the policy, as it is very annoying to the user. Sony Xperia customers who purchase waterproof phones have always expected that they will be able to use them under water, which is what Sony has told them through its promotion. We don't see this as a potential issue, many of us used Xperia devices underwater and took pictures without problems, but caution comes from Sony and why it changes its policy.
What we need is in Sony’s favor to bring its manufacturing materials fully into line with its branding. Case in point, what the Waterproof Technology page on the Sony Mobile website says:
It is permissible to use phones in chlorinated ponds (such as swimming pools), and then rinse the phone in fresh water after that. It is not possible to take the phone to a depth of more than one and a half meters and for a period longer than thirty minutes.
- Then we see the Xperia Z3 page saying:
“You can dive with the phone under a depth of more than one and a half meters.” These are just a few examples that we have found on the site, and we are sure that there are an infinite number of examples that illustrate the apparent contradiction in what Sony announces.
- The Xperia Z5 also hasn't changed the wording, saying:
“You should never put the device under water or under sea water, salt water, chlorinated water or liquids such as drinks. Misuse and improper use of the device nullifies the warranty. ”
So, it is clear that Sony says that if you do not follow the warnings, you will risk your device so that its warranty may be void, and the topic may be that there is more than one person running the company, one of them insists on using false advertising, and another insists on clarifying the situation to users, and we are between this and that, We are confused and do not know which is correct, so whoever uses the new Sony devices under water and you have not spoiled it, may remain on this or may even lose confidence in his device that he has always used under water.
As for those who have bought a device recently and want to enjoy the new water resistance technology, they will not dare to let the water even touch their device, and speaking of the one who was thinking about buying a Sony device that is characterized by its water resistance, please think again about your options, Sony devices are not in dispute. In terms of specifications, but to buy it only because of its water resistance, it's worth rethinking more than once.
We, in Aragic Tech, advise new buyers of Sony devices to make touching the water an emergency, no more than two, that Sony devices are waterproof, but who knows what conditions are necessary to use the device under water without sabotaging any point in it and who knows even its existence In our normal life, the laboratory is not like the one that Sony has tested its devices with, so do not dive under the water carrying your phone to take some pictures, because it may be the end of it and you will not even be able to talk about it, or it will cost you a lot to change its components, so whoever wants to buy Sony devices, Think of its water resistance as a protection against children or against unintended mistakes, not a protection to take pictures and chat underwater.
The article is open for readers to share with us their opinions and experiences with Sony's waterproof devices, so let those who do not know learn.
