Google acknowledges that IP68 protection on Pixel 10 Pro Fold diminishes over time

Your Pixel 10 Pro Fold’s Water and Dust Resistance May Not Last

The Pixel 10 Pro Fold by Google risks losing its water and dust resistance over time, recent disclosures suggest. While marketed with an IP68 rating, the company has explicitly stated that such resistance is not guaranteed indefinitely, emphasizing that usage can degrade these protections, reports 24brussels.

Google’s recent advertising materials reveal that the device’s sealants can deteriorate from exposure to elements like saltwater and chlorine or as a result of physical impacts such as drops and cracks. The fine print in its promotional content clearly states: “Water resistance and dust resistance are not permanent conditions and will diminish or be lost over time due to normal wear and tear.”

Furthermore, Google explicitly notes that damage incurred from drops is excluded from warranty coverage, a standard practice for most manufacturers. If a device shows signs of liquid intrusion, it may void the warranty altogether.

This candid admission marks a rare instance where a tech company has openly addressed the longevity of its products’ protective features. The implications for consumers are significant, as the longevity of electronic devices now stands in contrast to their marketed durability.

As this trend develops, consumers may need to adjust their expectations regarding device maintenance and care, particularly for high-end products like the Pixel 10 Pro Fold. The company’s transparency could lead to greater awareness among users about the actual durability of their devices.
