Check out the 5 Best Water-resistant Android Phones

BANGALORE: Gone are the days when mobile phones were meant exclusively for communication purposes. Off late, mobile phone manufacturers try to catch up with the needs of the people and the lifestyle of an individual. So, along with cool and sleek designed phones, rough and highly durable phones that are water resistant come as a major player in smartphones’ market. Here are the 5 waterproof android smartphones as compiled by Digital Trends.

Sony Xperia Z1: The model is one of the greatest warriors from the manufacturer sporting an impressive 20.7 MP rear camera with the facility to attach external lenses. Sony boasted about its IP58 certification that makes Xperia Z1 completely water resistant. The device can withstand being submerged into 5 feet of water. It is indeed an amazingly nice feature to have on a high-end smartphone. To make the Z1 water resistant, the manufacturer had to close most openings (except the headphone jack) with little rubber-coated flaps.

Driven by a quad-core Snapdragon processor clocked at 2.2 GHz, Xperia Z1 is complemented with 2 GB RAM and 16GB of built-in memory expandable upto 64GB. The 5-inch TFT capacitive touch screen throws out images at 1080 x 1920 pixels resolution. The handset runs on Android 4.2 Jelly bean and sports a front camera of 2 Mega Pixel. A 3000 mAh non-removable battery provides power supply good enough for 14 hours on 2G talktime.
