I hi I'm Eric Mack for craved i'm here at Colorado's San Juan River where I'm going to be torture testing the Kyocera torque which is a ruggedized military-grade smartphone its 4g on the sprint network and we're going to put it to the test and see if it lives up to its claim that it can be fully submerged underwater they savor up to 30 minutes in a couple of feet of water and it's also shockproof so I'm going to combine those two abilities today and going to take the Kyocera torque for a quick whitewater raft trip down the rapids of the San Juan right here you can see one behind me but just to make a little more interesting going to do it without the rest what is a little rough so we're going to try this anyway and let's see how this holds up if when we take our first rabbit you're supposed to be doing this with a tube after inner tube but I kind of forgot that so let's just see what happens okay so quick wrap-up actually took two runs down the San Juan with the torque here and it survived pretty well a couple of issues whenever went underwater most times winner underwater it did seem to actually stop the video recording there is one there's a little bit of footage work stayed running under the water there and also after the first run the sound on the recording one's a little muffled we might have a wet microphone issue might need to dry out a little bit we'll see so I suppose if you're an aspiring Jacques Cousteau this might not be the phone for you use mic still want to get some more advanced underwater equipment but in terms of you know surviving some pretty extreme conditions that would knock any other smartphone out of commission for quite a while if not permanently it's definitely living up to expectations and if you're under 25 just google shock do stuff for crave
