Galaxy
**te 4, LG G3
tipped to
have same ‘waterproof’ tech as
Galaxy S5

Is being "waterproof" the
next must-have feature for any respectable smartphone? Korean website
ITToday reports that several new smartphones set to be released this year, including Samsung's
Galaxy **te 4 and LG's upcoming G3 flagship phone, will use the
same type of water-resistant casing
used by Samsung in its Galaxy S5 phone. That the
Galaxy **te 4 will
have water-resistant casing isn't surprising since it's made by the
same company behind the
Galaxy S5 but this could mark the first time that an
LG flagship phone has featured water-resistant casing. Sony was the first major smartphone manufacturer to emphasize water-resistant casing as a key feature for its smartphones and the rest of the industry has slowly started to follow along.
