Pressure test is this one normal?

Liam729 — Mon, 02 Nov 2015 23:08:38 GMT

I want to be sure my phone is water resistant from rain / accidental spillages and so on would someone be able to tell me if this test is normal.

The best way to test this is by contacting your Local support and request a vacuum test.

Hi Liam729,

Is there any specific reason why you think it may not be? Have you damaged the device or simply curious?

Not at all jake I got it pretty much brand new off my brother when he upgraded to the Z5 he had it for about a year and kept it in fantastic condition just some of the stories I have read regarding the Z3 and onwards I just want to be very sure it's protected against accidents

Hmmm... put phone in baloon and blow with with air, to increase pressure then check screen info?

I see, then the suggestion above is correct, a service agent can perform a vacuum test to make sure it meets the required standard.

That means I will be without a phone for a while?

A quick suggestion, make sure to buy a Dock, to avoid wear and tear on the usb cover

I am unable to get a vacuum test done as my nearest service center is quite a distance away and if I send it to Sony I will be without a phone for a while I hope someone can let me know if the pressure test is normal that would be fantastic

Sorry if I sound stupid but what are you trying to show me

Quick question about Sony service centers

Do they charge for a vacuum test?

@Liam729

That's a great question, but only your Local support can answer.
