Oppo set to launch F27 Pro+, India’s 1st IP69-rated smartphone: What does it mean?

Oppo is set to launch India’s first IP69-rated smartphone, the F27 Pro+, on June 13. While IP68 ratings are common on high-end flagship smartphones, the Oppo F27 Pro+ takes ingress protection to the next level with its IP69 rating, making it India’s first “waterproof rated” smartphone.

An IP69 rating, although seemingly a small step up from IP68, represents the highest level of ingress protection available on consumer-grade smartphones. This means it can withstand higher pressure and lower temperatures for extended periods, offering superior water and dust resistance.
