Is this water proof ? And if so, for showering, rain, washing your hands, just how water proof is it ?

I wear it outside and while swimming. I think it is fine in shower, doing dishes, including he rain, and in the pool.

Yes this is waterproof. I really never take mine off. I shower in it, wash dishes, clothes, go swimming etc. Obviously I wouldn't go diving or anything where the water is deep with more pressure, but general day to day activities and normal exercising is no problem.

Hello,Thank you for your inquiry. This item is not listed as water resistant by the manufacturer. Please let me know if you need any further assistance.

Yes it is waterproof. I have used it in shower and bath a few times and still works great

No, it is not water resistant to the extent you can wear it while swimming or bathing. It will resist sweat and rainfall, but submerging it in water could ruin it.Personally, when I shower, I plug the device into my computer to charge and sync.

Well, just about nothing is considered "waterproof" anymore! Even watches in most cases are considered "water resistant" these days! That being said, I have already gotten mine wet and no problems.

It's water proof. But if you are going to use it for your phone you might want to spend more and get one of a better quality. For money, charge card, ID it's just fine. Wouldn't trust it for my phone though.

I use it in the shower and it stopped working after 5 uses. I'm not sure how waterproof this thing really is...maybe just water resistant.

Good question! I don't know if it is water proof or not. I'm and avid runner, so anything apart from cardo exercises, I don't really Know!

No it is water resistant. But mine never stopped working and I was out in a thunderstorm for 4 hours wearing it. It's about as close to waterproof that you can get.

The sliding of the "zoom" draws air in and pushes it back out. You can hear it if you do it fast. Plus you gotta think that something is filling the empty space created when you pull it out. I would differently say that it is not water proof, but would stand up to a normal rain shower.

Actually, I don't know if it's waterproof. I haven't used it in the rain so far. I haven't assumed that it is though, although it could be water resistant.

It is water resistant, which means it can get wet but should not be submerged. Mine gets wet while washing my hands, but I remove it to shower and that is a great time to recharge it.

There are all degrees of water-resistance. It is constructed like a hand-held calculator or a TV remote, especially as far as the battery compartment and control buttons go. Can it stand a few drops of plain water splashed on it? sure; Can you pick it up with wet fingers without damaging it? sure; but soft drink or coffee splashes would eventually gum up the buttons, just like buttons on a TV remote might; ...certainly it is not water-proof.

It is not water proof if you drop it in water, and it becomes completely submerged. It does protect it from rain and splashes.

It's water/splash resistant, but not waterproof. You aren't supposed to submerse it in water or any liquid. It says you can shower in it, but I usually take mine off.

I wouldn't say water proof, it's proved rather durable and water resistant to walking through the rain. I've had it in some down poor's and the items inside stayed dry. Just be sure and dry it out thoroughly before putting it away.

Water-proof? No. Water-resistant? Probably. I've had this backpack for approx. 2 months, and have had zero issues commuting to work in the rain without an umbrella. My laptop/notebooks have always stayed dry in light to moderate rain, although I haven't tested it in heavy rain for long distances...and I don't plan on taking the risk, unless absolutely necessary.
