7 Best Waterproof Smartphones for 2014

Kyocera Hydro Elite

The Kyocera Hydro Elite is not as well known as Samsung, Sony and the iPhone, but it is another waterproof smartphone option that users should check out. This device is rated to survive three feet underwater for 30 minutes.

Shoppers that buy the Kyocera Hydro Elite also get the benefit of a Smart Sonic Receiver that helps block out background noise so that you can hear people when you are in a noisy area. Other features include wireless charging and an 8MP camera capable of 1080P videos.

The Kyocera Hydro Elite is free with a two year contract at Verizon. Although this is an older Android smartphone the price makes it one that many shoppers will want to consider even though the Galaxy S5 is a better option for most users.
