    The lining of the case itself maybe water proof but the zipper has tons of holes that allow water to get through if it was supposed to be fully waterproof they would need to add something to cover the zippers obviously the company didn’t think that people would be dunking the case into a pitcher but the idea is very useful if for example your water bottle leaks in your bag

    2:55 I believe the general majority of the case is “waterproof” in sense that rain won’t get in if it lands on it or it gets splashed. But the zipper area is definitely not waterproof, it will not make it through SUBMERSION. Aside from that I think it simply looked simplistic and rather stylish

  • @sodiboo

    Waterproof does mean you can submerge it. That's why it's practically not legal to advertise a product as waterproof unless it's actually completely waterproof, and most products, even the ones that can fully handle submersion for a long period while turned on (i.e. any iPhone from the last 6-7 years) can only use the term "water-resistant". He said in the video waterproof, so either the product page does not say that or it's completely false advertising (yes! even if it can handle rain that's false advertising!)

    The funniest thing about the waterproof case test is that you didn't even need to put a switch in it to test if it worked. You could have just dunked the case in water and then opened it to see if the inside was wet. I suppose that's less dramatic but whatever lol.

Language is extremely important especially when it comes to technical language. As a computer science kind of guy that writes technical documents as part of his job this was a big oof.

So that's why he said "just unplug it" because that's how it thinks of the situation. I don't blame him for being anymore specific because most people don't take the leap of logic that unplug means to take the whole battery out. He probably would have been more specific if Wood told him the reason his switch was soaked was becuase he took an Amazon page showing a case with a little rain on it was the same thing as being able to dunk it underwater.

    Water Resistant means random water got on it as in a very small amount. Waterproof has different meanings, take watches for instance they will actually say waterproof up to 10 ft or something like that on them telling you the limits. So waterproof in this instance probably meant if you sprayed it with a hose for a few seconds you would be okay. More water than water resistant, but not total submersion. This is what happens when it's subject to interpretation.

    I actually kinda like the batter packs for the joycons. If you have bigger hands it makes them chunkier to use separately while docked while also charging them. You could also buy rechargeable double a's, so you can reuse those as well. Yea you can just plug it into the switch to charge them but if you mostly use your switch docked and want to charge another pair and play at the same time their pretty useful. I think if you could slide them into the switch it would make it that much better cause you could charge them with the switch turned off.
