iPhone XS Max si Samsung GALAXY Note 9 appear today in a test that aims to show us how resistant the two models of mobile phones are to contact with water. Although both the iPhone XS Max and the Samsung GALAXY Note 9 are certified with IP68 protection, the Apple phone withstands 2 meters under water for 30 minutes, while the Samsung phone only withstands 1.5 meters.
The iPhone XS and Samsung GALAXY Note 9 withstand the first part of the test without problems, both phone models being submerged to the certification depth without being damaged. It is also normal for both the iPhone XS Max and the Samsung GALAXY Note 9 to withstand these conditions, and this is because the latter has withstood worse "torture", and the former has very resistant predecessors.
iPhone XS Max vs GALAXY Note 9: Water Resistance
iPhone XS Max and Samsung GALAXY Note 9 pass the second part of the test through several swimming sessions, without being affected in any way by the constant, sometimes even brutal, contact with water. It is otherwise normal to see things unfold in this way, especially since the iPhone XS is designed to withstand so well when it comes to constant contact with it.
iPhone XS Max and Samsung GALAXY Note 9 pass the last part of the test through a somewhat more serious comparison, going under water at a depth of over 4 meters, but without problems. Of course, they didn't stay under water for such a long time, but only after being submerged more than 10 meters under water, the Samsung GALAXY Note 9 gives in completely, while the iPhone XS Max is not affected by the depth.
