When buying a smartwatch or smartwatch, one of the most reviewed features is its ability to resist water. In this way, we will not have to worry if it gets wet when we wash our hands, we can shower with it or even bathe in the pool. If you are looking for a smartwatch with these capabilities, we are going to show below a compilation with some of the best cheap smartwatches that have water resistance.
In this case, there is a piece of information that we must review before buying one model or another. We refer to the IP certificate or IP protection, which refers to the international standard CEI60529 and which establishes the level of protection of any device against certain external agents such as water and dust.
The initials IP refer to International Protection and are accompanied by two digits. The first indicates the degree or level of protection against solid agents such as dust, while the second digit indicates the protection against the ingress of water. Therefore, when we read that a smartwatch or any other device is IP68 certified, it means that it has a degree of protection against the entry of solids level 6 and water level 8.
Focusing on what interests us and to know the degree of protection of a smartwatch against water, we must know that the levels are classified as follows:
- IP x0 : No protection.
- IP x1 : Protection against vertical drops of water.
- IP x2 : Protection against falling water drops with a maximum inclination of 15º.
- IP x3 : Protection against rain with a fall of up to 60º inclination.
- IP x4 : Protection against water spray.
- IP x5 : Protection against jets of water.
- IP x6 : Protection against waves and powerful water jets.
- IP x7 : Protection against the effects of temporary immersion.
- IP x8 : Protection against the effects of submersion.
- IP x9 : Protection against short range, high temperature and pressure jets of water.
