Today, Xiaomi’s Redmi brand officially announced the Redmi K60 Ultra, their latest mobile phone, as the first Redmi device to feature IP68 dust and waterproof functions. This phone, which has functionality even after 30 minutes submerged in 1.5 meters of water, is set for release on August 14 at 7 pm.
In the GB T 4208-2017 standard, the waterproof and dustproof level is denoted by the digits following IPXX. The initial number signifies dust proofing, ranging from 0 to 6, with 6 being the highest level. The second digit indicates waterproofing, ranging from 0 to 8; the highest level is 8.
