The device appears to be light and thin but it really is rugged with its IP68 and IP69K rating. IP68 means it’s water resistant in up to 1.5 meters of water for up to 30 minutes and protected from dust, dirt, and sand. IP69K lets the phone withstand the thermal steam wash test, resisting high water pressure of 100 bar(1450 psi) and high water temperature of 80 ℃.
