Before the launch of OnePlus 13, one of the most awaited phones of the smartphone industry, on October 31, the company continues to introduce the phone’s features.

OnePlus officials stated that they will come up with a very ambitious phone compared to their flagship competitors. OnePlus has announced that the 13 will be released with IP69 protection and this makes it the leader in water resistance among current smartphones.

Compared to IP68, IP69 is distinguished by its resistance to high-pressure water. To put it simply, users’ phones can continue to work not only underwater, but also when exposed to high-pressure water.

Will withstand high pressure water

IP ratings, determined by the International Electrotechnical Commission, measure a device’s resistance to dust and water. OnePlus 13 in this area It will leave its competitors behind on models such as iPhone 16 Pro, Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and Google Pixel 9 Pro..

Such high degrees of protection are generally found on very few devices. For example, OnePlus 13 is the first smartphone with IP69 rating to be offered to the markets of Western countries. While the IP68 rating under normal conditions indicates that the phone can withstand water deeper than one meter, some reports suggest that the OnePlus 13 can withstand water up to 1.5 meters deep.

However, it is important to remember that these phone ratings do not protect against excessive exposure to water or dust in everyday use, but rather against accidents.

OnePlus 13, which will be launched in China in the coming days, is expected to hit global markets next year.
