Samsung has just launched the new Galaxy M10s and Galaxy M30s. Both of them are amazing smartphones but are they actually waterproof? Well today in this post, you will find out whether the new Galaxy M10s & M30s are waterproof or not. Get ready for our Samsung Galaxy M10s & M30s waterproof test.

Samsung Galaxy M10s Waterproof Test

Talking about the Samsung Galaxy M10s first, the phone features a 6.4-inch HD+ display. The phone utilizes a Super AMOLED screen panel with the Infinity V-shaped notch above to house the selfie camera. Under the hood, the handset has an octa-core Samsung Exynos 7884B processor, which is accompanied by 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. At the rear, there’s a dual 13MP + 5MP camera setup, while on the front you have an 8MP lens for selfies. Unlike its predecessor, the Galaxy M10s is equipped with a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor. A 4,000mAh battery with 15W fast charging support keeps the whole package running.

In this waterproof test, we are going to put the device in a small tub full of water for 1 minute. This test will give us a rough idea of whether the new Galaxy M10s is splashproof or not.

After conducting this test, we can say that this phone is not fully waterproof. The speaker’s sound was muffled up and the touchscreen was unresponsive. Even there was a visible fog in-camera lens which indicates that water has gone inside the device’s body. Users must take proper care of this device when near any water bodies such as pool, pond, lake, etc.

Samsung Galaxy M30s Waterproof Test

As for the Samsung Galaxy M30s, the smartphone is equipped with a 6.4-inch full HD+ Super AMOLED display with an Infinity U-shaped notch above. Notably, the handset has the Widewine L1 certification, which will let you play HD content from services like Netflix and Prime Video. This one is powered by a 2.3GHz octa-core Exynos 9611 processor. The phone comes in two RAM and storage configurations – 4GB + 64GB and 6GB + 128GB. Just like the Galaxy M10s, the Galaxy M30s also boots Android 9 Pie out of the box with Samsung’s new One UI on top and gets a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor.
