Here is a Holi-proof way to handle gadgets this Holi 2025 so that you can enjoy the festival and not worry about your gadgets getting wet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><strong>Waterproof bags or cases<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Waterproof bags and cases are easily available in the market and very convenient to use. They\u2019re reliable and can be used to keep your phones safe while enjoying a Holi party. These cases can either be kept in your pocket or hung around your neck, so you can glance at them once in a while. These cases come in all sizes and can fit any phone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><strong>Use an old phone<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">If you are someone who likes owning and using expensive phones and does not want to risk using them while playing Holi, use a spare phone. You must have a lot of options to choose from, for using an old spare phone. Do not use multiple devices and also make sure you do not use expensive earpods\/earphones.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><strong>Get IP68 Rated Gadgets<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">These days you can easily buy phones with IP68 rating which is somewhat safe to use even if water splashes on them. And the good thing is you don\u2019t have to spend big money anymore, as phones under Rs 35,000 come with this protection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\"><strong>The Hair Dryer Warning<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The most common mistake that people make to restore a wet phone is blow drying the phone. Using a blow dryer may help you dry out your phone but you are likely to burn out the phone\u2019s components in the process. Stick to rice. It works.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"10\" class=\"story_para_10\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\"><strong>And Finally<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"11\" class=\"story_para_11\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">You also have the option to use the do-it-yourself sprays that add a waterproof layer and to your smartphone. The method is simple and the result is long-lasting. Done the right way, one application of the nano state flood spray can last for 6-12 months.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><affilizz-magic-match classname=\"jsx-84b04b7382bb4bce jsx-1201330105\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-84b04b7382bb4bce jsx-1201330105 atbtlink Location\"><span>Location :<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Delhi, India, India<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-84b04b7382bb4bce jsx-1201330105 atbtlink fp\"><span>First Published:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rs\">\n<p>March 03, 2026, 10:21 IST<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-84b04b7382bb4bce jsx-1201330105 brdcrmb\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/\">News<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/tech\/\">tech<\/a>  <span class=\"brdout\"> Holi Gadget Tips: How To Protect Your Phone From Water And Colours<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"coral-wrap\" class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f \">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coral-cont\">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coltoptxt\">Disclaimer: Comments reflect users\u2019 views, not News18\u2019s.
