Is Samsung Galaxy M22, M32, A22, or F22 Waterproof device?

Even though if your device is waterproof, it should not mean that you can use it underwater for an extended period. If you have noticed in your water-resistant watch, it would have mentioned at 30m for 30 mins. This means that the watch can withstand water for as long as 1 meter deep and 30 mins long. After that, there is no guarantee. That same principle applies to waterproof phones as well.

Warning

We do not encourage you to perform these tests on your phone to find out whether they are waterproof. If you do so, then we cannot take responsibility for your actions. Also, make a note that water damage will not be covered in the warranty unless your manufacturer says so.

All of the phones seem to work fine without any issues. We tested speaker sound, fingerprint, camera, touch as well as charging ports. All of them seem to work without any issues or whatsoever. At first, the earpiece seems to rattle in the M22 a bit but drying it gently using a hot blower will fix the issue just like in our case. This should prove that M22, M32 A22 as well F22 phones could withstand water splash.

Submerged Test with the phones

Let’s step up for a bit. Now, as the next step, we conducted a water submerged test on the Samsung Galaxy M22, M32, A22, and F22 phones. As mentioned already, we kept the phones inside the water bowl for a minute. After taking them out and cleaning them, we saw that the phones were still working. Although we used the hot air blower to clean the water in the earpiece, which might have caused it to fail. The A22 phone’s earpiece did not work after the submerge test. This proves that the phones are not 100% waterproof and depending on the depth and duration of submerging, the phones could stop working completely.

So it is not advised to use the phone underwater. Although in case of dropping it by mistake, you can hope that the phone might survive the water. Nevertheless, you should not try to use the phone as soon as you take it out from the water. You should let it dry completely, and only then should you check whether the phone is working. Else you might ultimately damage your phone, and you should be already aware that the warranty does not convert any water damage.

Conclusion

As you can see, the Samsung Galaxy M22, M32, A22, and F22 budget phones are not completely waterproof. That means you should completely avoid using phones near water to prevent accidental drops. However, our tests prove that these phones are somewhat resistant to normal splashes of water. So if you accidentally drop the phone in a small pond, you do not have to worry if you managed to take it out of it quickly and cleaned it. Although most phones nowadays are at least splash-proof. But the manufacturers are not willing to point it out. That doesn’t mean you have to check it the hard way to find it out.
