5 gadgets that can weather the rains





A sudden downpour, careless spill of water or moisture seepage can dampen your spirit when it comes to your favourite gadget. But that can't be the case with these water-resistant devices

iPhone 7 Plus

If you want to have the best iPhone, the iPhone 7 Plus it is. While the smaller iPhone 7 has a good camera, the iPhone 7 Plus features a dual-lens camera that lets you zoom in 2x with no loss in resolu tion and detail. This added flexibility makes the camera on the iP hone 7 Plus one of the best, even today. It has got IP67 dust and waterproof rat ing. That makes it water proof up to 1 m (3.3ft) for up to 30 minutes.

UE Wonderboom

The UE Wonderboom is one of the best waterproof Bluetooth speakers you can buy today. It is completely waterproof, offers true 360-degree sound, features a 100-foot range and can pair two devices simultaneously and it works with Siri or Google Assistant.The Wonderboom does so much right that it's hard to knock its few flaws.

Nikon Coolpix AW130

The AW130 comes loaded with a host of features -there's a terrific GPS system, interactive world map and WiFi connectivity, plus an altimeter and underwater depth gauge to boot.The AW130 also offers a high resolution, 921k dot OLED monitor, but perhaps most impressive of all is that the AW130 can function down to a depth of 30 metres -as far as an Advanced Open Water diving certificate will get you.

Nixon Mission

Nixon's Mission is one of the most ruggedised and waterproof Android Wear-powered smartwatches you can flaunt on your wrist this monsoon. Out of the many Android Wear smartwatches to release in the past few years, none have been built tough enough to handle prolonged exposure to water and take a beating without showing it. This smartwatch can survive underwater up to 100 m deep.

GoPro Hero5 Session

The Hero5 Session follows on from the Hero4 Session, and includes 4K video capture up to 30fps, image stabilisation, voice control and is waterproof down to 10 metres. The large record button on the top starts and stops recording so there's no worrying about .different modes and options -that's all handled by the app
