Pressure test is this one normal?

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 Slightly_smiling_Face

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

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
