Google doesn't mention it much in ads, but the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL both have an IP68 dust and water-resistant rating.
So while you probably can't take the Pixel swimming, if it falls in the pool (or toilet) you're ok and the phone won't die. Last year it was IP67, this year its IP68. This means the phone can handle going under around 5ft of water for 30 minutes and come out working just fine Basically, one less thing to worry about while you're enjoying the phone day in and day out. Go take some stunning photos on a rainy day, and you'll love the results. |
