Start here: Water Resistance

All topics →

This tag collects articles about water resistance and battery replacement for a range of personal electronics, specifically aimed at anyone who owns a smartwatch, fitness tracker, or smartphone. Whether you are trying to keep your device safe from moisture or simply need to swap out a dead battery, these guides provide straightforward, practical steps for common maintenance and repair tasks.

The articles address two main themes. The first is battery replacement for traditional watches, with specific guides for G-SHOCK, Fossil, Movado, and Invicta models, alongside general advice on where to get a watch battery replaced. The second theme focuses on water resistance: you can learn how to waterproof a Fitbit Flex, determine which Fitbit model is actually waterproof, and understand the waterproof capabilities of the iPhone X and various Samsung and Android phones. There is also direct guidance for handling accidents, such as what to do if an iPhone 14 falls in water.

Beyond these core topics, the collection also covers accessory durability, asking whether AirTags need a waterproof case, and provides support resources for Fitbit repairs and device identification. These articles help you take direct action, from changing a watch battery yourself to knowing exactly how much water your phone or tracker can handle.
