Why 5ATM is better than IP68
Both the IP68 and 5ATM standards are used to measure the tightness of electronic devices, especially smartphones and smartwatches. However, they differ in their approach to measuring water resistance.
The IP68 rating means that the device is dustproof and can withstand being immersed in water up to 1.5 meters deep for 30 minutes.
The 5ATM rating means that the device can withstand water pressure equivalent to 50 meters deep for 10 minutes
5ATM the most efficient choice
Both indexes are considered to be very good for water resistance, but they measure different aspects of water resistance. If you're looking for a device that can withstand a brief immersion in water, an IP68 rating may be a better choice. If you need a device that can withstand water pressure, 5ATM may be a better choice. In the end, the choice depends on your specific needs and usage scenarios.
