this is a mesh bag we're going to be taking these phones down 60 feet in sold water to find out which one survived - how deep if any of them come along for the ride we're going to go down sixty feet but of course the initial test has to happen here on the surface are we lying or do these bones even work iPhone boom working G fine boom that one's working too Moto X oh yeah baby that one's working z5 premium it's got a 4k screens if that 4k screen survives galaxy s7 look at that AMOLED screen in LA in the direct sunlight not too shabby eh and finally the guy is Sarah whatever the crap this thing is we only like this one because it actually has a swimming Android robot as its boot screen this one really thinks it's tough we're gonna find out if it really is so our first test at 10 feet or about 3 meters yielded some results that if we had an ounce of gray matter in our heads wouldn't surprise us much the LG g5 which advertises no water resistance at all was dead immediately but also some results that did surprise me I really thought the Sony z5 premium would last at least for a little while but it was dead already at 10 feet this made me feel very uncertain about whether any of the phones would still be alive and the Moto X plays water repellant coating did nothing to calm my fears it was completely dead oh for 3 so far and the iPhone 6s was no different one press of the lock button confirmed that I was down at least four of my six phones right out of the gate but the galaxy s7 came through for me look at that it's ingress protection or IP rating of 6 feet which you can learn more about here by the way has kept it alive at 10 feet under the salt water ban but what about the Kyocera dura force yes we have another winner it is officially a two-horse race time to pack them up and go deeper so at 20 feet we continue our story or rather some of us do the Kyocera dura force breathed its last somewhere between 10 and 20 feet under the surface of the ocean but what of the galaxy s7 oh yes so it's rated at 30 minutes to a depth of 1.5 meters or about 5 feet in fresh water but it has actually managed four times that depth so far in salt water but how low can it go our next stop is 30 feet down and it works unmade ok hold on a second so this was actually a little confusing for me at the time because I wasn't looking at it when the screen spazzed out but there you have it while the galaxy s7 might not have made it to the award ceremony it does come out the big winner in our seawater waterproofness test now just to ensure the accuracy of our results and that none of the other phones had sprung back to life I gave each of them a quick double check under the water before continuing the rest of the dive they all conked out by 30 feet with the galaxy s7 actually holding up the best what we're gonna do is we're gonna get these into fresh water and then alcohol and then we're actually going to attempt recovering them but for now thank you guys for tuning in to our ocean camp test sponsored by phantom glass they make great screen projectors but even phantom glass couldn't have protected these phones from the depths of the ocean I mean look at this this one this one's like got the back coming off here huge shout out to phantom glass for sponsoring this episode of Linus tech tips fandom glass makes the awesome Gorilla Glass nano coated screen protectors that are designed to perfectly fit your phone screen check them out at the link in the video description if you liked this video it's not like button if you'd like it like it's just like mine I guess get subscribed and maybe you're supporting us so if you like to buy stuff on Amazon with our affiliate code up there you can't change something whatever the rest of my out drone is yeah we have quotation to my Pierson not wearing one right now and I'd like freaking freezing actually I want to get out of my wax suit so I'm going to close this out
