pure BS. how the heck could it repel water on keys unless it completely seals out pretty much every microscopic hole. If it did this the keys wouldn't function since they would be stuck with this crap in them. Secondly. 95% of the exterior of cellphones and what not are waterproof or resistant. It's the damn holes and gaps that lead into battery connections and such where water gets into. In most cases those can't be filled, if they could the manufacture would have done so. Examples inclued microphone and earholes, battery cover slide areas, and key pockets as well as usb and microSD ports.
Your correct, accept, I dont think you read the print. This coats the inards and outside in a coating thats non-conductive. Meaning it WILL WORK WHEN WATER GETS IN IT..
Plz read b4 you post..
As far as removal.. I think that would apply to flat surfaces.. Meaning a component board covered with this will be impossible to repair.. Im looking at this like what some ppl do to their Bartops.. They will put stuff in/on the bartop and cover it all in resin(clear) so that the items are trap'd in what looks like glass and protected from the elements..

anyway, i agree, the more i think about it, the more i think this is bunk. i mean, if you coated the circuit boards, that would probably do something, but then there are the charging terminals that have to be exposed, and then the headphone jack, computer port, etc. you can't leave those open, but you can't seal them up if you want it to work.
They do coat every little microscopic component. I think they use some sort of vacuum deposition. They mask the contacts so they don't get coated, and they will eventually corrode.

They probably used pure H2O (water) which doesn't conduct electricity. Minerals (salt) mixed with water is what conduct electricity.
I vote for BS.
i think you mean "except"?
learn 2 english

@Good_Bytes
Pure water does conduct electricity.

...No, it doesn't...maybe you failed grade 9 Chemistry?
