Apple Explains Why It Won’t Make iPhones With Replaceable Batteries

@NightOwl@lemmy.one · 1Y

Don’t go pros have replaceable batteries too and get used in like the ocean?

@Im_old@lemmy.world · edit-2 1Y

Yes, but they have a very sturdy case. The gopro itself (without the case) is not waterproof.

Edit: looks like I haven’t kept up with the times (username checks out) and now they ARE waterproof even without the case.

I mean if you remove the waterproof case you have a naked circuit board, if they could make that waterproof we wouldn’t be talking about this.

or are you thinking about ancient gopros that needed an extra sealed case?

Most modern gopros still need the extra case for deeper depths

As do almost all phones

Sephtis-6 · 1Y

Yeah I know, just wanted to make sure nobody takes their unprotected or old gopro to 100ft of depth.

metaStatic · 1Y

anyone going down 100ft knows if their shit is depth rated

@Im_old@lemmy.world · 1Y

Yeah, I’ve updated my reply to reflect that.

Sephtis-6 · 1Y

They are if i recall correctly(at least the newer ones) waterproof till about 30ft without the extra case and with it till 150ft or so. But the extra case is very thick and sturdy

This is wrong btw.

Since the Hero 5, Go Pros have been waterproof without the case. The current GoPro is waterproof to 10 meters without a case or 60 meters with the case.

Compared to the current iphone which is only water resistant, so can be submerged for 30 minutes, upto 6 meters.
