Yes, most smartwatches are waterproof, but some are only water-resistant. There’s a difference between water-resistant and waterproof. When a smartwatch is water-resistant, this indicates that it is able to resist the penetration of water to a certain degree and not entirely. On the other hand, waterproof means something that is impervious to water. In simpler terms, it means that it doesn’t allow water to pass through. Hence, waterproof smartwatches are more beneficial.
