Summer holidays in Europe usually involve very direct contact with water for obvious reasons of high temperatures and summery settings. Many people plan their holidays with excursions to the many beaches of the country or to amusement parks with fountains, rural lodges and hotels with swimming pools…
Also in summer many photos are taken, because we travel more, we spend more time away from home and we stay with friends more often. You have to be careful about covering these photos on social media, but it’s always nice to have them as keepsakes. Some of the most striking are those that are made in areas of water, but which can endanger our mobiles.
For some years now, high-end terminals have generally come with IP68 protection, which means that we can get them wet without, in principle, suffering any damage. Despite, It’s not a good idea to immerse a mobile in a swimming pool to take a picture, let alone in the sea. If we want to do this, it is better to use a special cover for it.
waterproof covers
To take these photos, you can buy different covers that make it possible to waterproof the devices, although you still have to be very careful. It is better to have a mobile with IP68, and place a case of this type on this mobile. Besides, They have straps to put them on the neck and that there is no risk of the device falling.
To use them, you must be very careful to check that there is no liquid inside before putting the mobile on. It is better to try another item and do some kind of leak test. In addition, it is essential that we always close the lid well to prevent water from entering it when we immerse the device.
Once underwater it is possible to take pictures by touching the screen, but this will not always work well so it is advisable to use the volume buttons as a triggeror another physical button if our mobile has one.
It’s also a good idea to use these blankets if we’re sitting by a pool, or indoors with a float having a drink. Thus, if the mobile falls into the water, we will be sure that nothing will happen to it. In this case We need to verify that the touch screen of our mobile supports uses plastic coverage
they are very cheap
The best thing about this type of accessories is that they are not very expensive, and if we want to try to take underwater photos, we can do it without spending a lot of money. This model costs less than 10 dollars and is the most basic model that can be found, costing the case and the lanyard to put it around the neck.
For a little more, still less than 12 dollars, you can buy this other model which It not only has the cell phone case but also a fanny pack to put other things, like wallet, keys or bills. It is available in eight different colors, some of which are quite striking.
The third type of case is more of a bag, in which we can put the mobile but also other elements. You can use the terminal, but it’s more of a way to store it, in case we go canoeing and things like that near water, than to take pictures itself, although technically we can. It costs around 12 dollars.
