You can't take the Pixel 2 swimming, but if it falls in the pool (or toilet) you're probably ok and the phone won't die.
Did you know that Google's Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL are both IP67 dust and water-resistant? This means the phone can handle going under around 3ft of water for 15-20 minutes and come out working just fine. So, if you drop it in the pool, even beyond 3 feet, it's probably fine. It's worth noting that Samsung Galaxy devices can go further and longer, with an IP68 rating, but your Pixel 2 is water-resistant. And that's worth knowing about. |
