Nokia plans to make all Lumia and PureView phones waterproof

28 May, 2012
There's no hard date on when they'll start though. They'll use hydrophobic coating which they've demoed before.

        Reason why i choose Nokia is because more than any other brand, it's durable,always been, always have,water catches many of my past previous phones including my current N8 and with some drying off ,it's good to go,not like other manufacturers.

        They always bring durabilty,quality and great design to the consumers.

          My iPhone 4S gets so hot that the water sizzles to a boil and evaporates almost instantly!

          I affectionately call it 'My little Cooking Apple"
          Errr.....joking aside, it needs sorted chaps!

            And they say Nokia is dead....
            Things like this show that Nokia is focusing on innovation rather than mindlessly adding processor cores to their phones.

            I would say that Nokia is pushing others to do better.

              Why is Nokia talking as if this is their idea. Has anyone forgotten about HzO and the whole nano water proofing technology in which they demonstrated a Galaxy S2 underwater for more than 2 hours. ???!!!

                About time someone did this. Wp8+pureview waterproofed will be an killer combo. I m tired of people fighting on processors dual,quad,blah blah. Even display size n resolution will saturate. Innovation is the way forward.

                  Nokia will be dropping windows platform and migrating to android. This is what I want to hear

                    Innovation at its finest. Nokia just keeps revolutionizing the game instead of just haphazardly slapping around a high clock speed CPU to their phones.
