10 Things the Galaxy Note 8 Can Do

Go Swimming (Water-Resistant)

As expected, Samsung's Galaxy Note 8 is completely water and dust resistant. Carrying an IP68 rating capable of being submerged in over 5ft of water for up to 30 minutes. That's higher than the iPhone 8 Plus and higher than most phones on the market. 

This IP68 rating means it's dust, splash and water resistant. Furthermore, the S-Pen is completely water-resistant too, which is pretty cool. And while Samsung doesn't recommend taking it swimming, we've done it enough to know you can and it will come out working just fine.
