[VIDEO] OnePlus One; meet water. Water; meet the OnePlus One.

The OnePlus One has been a particularly noteworthy phone in the first half of 2014, combining performance and value in a manner that is typically reserved for Google Nexus devices. At just $299 for the 16GB version and $349 for the 64GB version, it’s a hard deal to pass up on given the device has some of the most impressive specs on the market at the moment, perhaps bar only a Quad HD display. For that kind of money, you might expect OnePlus to perhaps skimp on some part of its maiden Android smartphone, perhaps waterproofing. But as GadgetGuruHD finds out in his YouTube video, that might not necessarily be true:

As you can see, despite being dipped into slightly suspect kerb water, the OnePlus One comes out unscathed. This definitely suggests the OnePlus One probably has some kind of nano-coating on its innards to prevent water affecting it which is always a huge plus. We’d have to wait for a more comprehensive test to see exactly how waterproof (or water resistant) the device is, but if you were worried at all that the OnePlus One might not stand up to a little splashing, let your qualms be relieved.

What do you think about the OnePlus One being waterproof? Are you going to get one? Let us know your opinion in the comments.
