ROG 2 - Is there any safety regarding water splash

RAIDEN_
Rising Star II
So considering the big vent on the backside of Rog 2 , will the device survive if the water gets inside through the vent ? Is there any safe mechanism Asus did to prevent such ?

He dunk the phone in water for 2 mins and it still work (6:45). Should you do it? NO. But if acidental drop in water or splashed then there's a good change phone can be save. Turn the phone off the put it in dry eviroment. Even my s8+ with IP rating suffered mosture damaged and it was out of warranty so for me there's no phone is safe to use in high humid environment for a long period of time, especially charging does speed up the corrosion. Cheer.

Good news duy! Not being IP rated was a compromise I was willing to take. It's even better it survives.

We do not recommend using ROG Phone II during a water fight. It would probably survive some minor splash but there's no guarantee. Minor rain shouldn't be a problem but if the water indicators inside are colored when we open it up, then the warranty is voided.

You should assume there is one considering the phone is not water resistant/proof due to the vents, charging ports and earphone jack. This is a way to protect the company from false accusations that the phone doesn't work but it was actually dropped in the water and dried up.
