Asus has just concluded the launch of its next and the latest smartphone, the Asus ROG Phone 8 Pro. The device has arrived with several interesting and impressive features and specifications, which significantly tends to join the top spot with its unrivalled performance, wider capability support, much more reliable battery pack, and is actually worth the penny spent in purchasing this pretty all-rounder.

Is the newest Asus ROG Phone 8 Pro waterproof? 

No doubt, the latest Asus ROG Phone 8 Pro comes with some monstrous features, but at the same time, it’s very important to note whether the device comes with some power-packed features and durability along with water protection or an IP rating, especially when you are paying such a hefty price of Rs. 94,999! With that, the brand claims the new ROG Phone 8 Pro has achieved an IP68 certification. But what does the IP68 rating mean?

The IP or Ingress Protection rating is an industry-level protection marking given to the device when it’s been significantly tested against two types of ingress- solid ingress and liquid ingress, respectively. So, when a device has received an IP68 rating, which certainly means that the device is highly water and dust proof, the IP68 rating is considered as the higher-level of ratings. 

Is the Asus ROG Phone 8 Pro waterproof?

The quick answer to this question is YES! The Asus ROG Phone 8 Pro comes with an IP68 rating, which makes it a fully Waterproof device. Here’s the explanation- with regards to the Asus ROG Phone 8 Pro, the first digit following the IP rating, which is 6, is considered that the device is protected against solid ingress- dust, making it a dustproof one. 

On the flip side, the second digit after the IP rating, which is 8, is considered that the device has the highest level of protection against liquid ingress- water. This certainly means that the Asus ROG Phone 8 Pro is completely Waterproof. Due to that, you don’t have to worry about getting it submerged into water up to 1.5 meters for about 30 minutes. Also, it can easily handle some water splashes and rain drops as well.
