<p class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"><img alt="LG invites you to splash around with Optimus GJ, a waterresistant phone for Taiwan" data-src-height="412" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/05/xc1-1369219006.jpg" /></p>

<p>Come next month, NTT DoCoMo users won't be the only ones to benefit from a water-resistant version of the Optimus G. Similar to the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/10/lg-optimus-g-l-01e-japan-ntt-docomo/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">L-01E for Japan</a>, LG has introduced the Optimus GJ for Taiwan, which carries IPX7 certification that allows for worry-free immersion in up to a meter of water for 30 minutes. The Optimus GJ also carries IPX5 certification for protection against dust particles. Dubbed the E975W, the smartphone is by and large a thicker version of the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/19/lg-optimus-g-review-a-quad-core-powerhouse-with-nexus-aspiratio/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Optimus G (E975)</a>. This means you'll find a 4.7-inch, 1,280 x 720 True HD IPS display, a 1.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro, a 13MP primary / 1.3MP front-facing camera setup, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of expandable storage and Android 4.1.2. Unlike the original Optimus G, the Optimus GJ wields a larger 2,280mAh battery and a red backing, but also lacks NFC functionality. You can expect it to hit the market next month in Taiwan, where it'll sell for NT$17,990 ($600). Hit up the source link to find additional views of the of the Optimus G -- it seems that LG has thrown a bit of a pool party to celebrate its announcement.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/polaroid/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Polaroid</a>'s come a long way <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/08/polaroid-no-longer-does-polaroids/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">since, well, Polaroid</a>. Now its portfolio includes <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/03/01/polaroid-to-make-socialmatic-camera-a-reality/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">retro</a> devices, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/09/hands-on-polaroid-m7-tablet/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">tablets</a> and <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/18/polaroid-xs7-xs20-xs100-hands-on/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">action cameras</a>. It's that last category we're interested in today, as the company just announced a new shooter, the Polaroid XS80. The credentials break down thus: HD recording in 1080p and 720p and VGA, waterproof to 30 feet, 16- 5- and 3-megapixel still modes and 120 degrees FOV. The barrel-bodied camera also includes a G sensor for auto rotation, plus anti-shake technology, a memory card slot (good for 32GB) and an HDMI socket. The price ($130 including helmet mount) puts this just below the XS100 model, but if this is just the right level of extreme for you, the good news is it's available now.</p>

<p>Sony's ratcheted up its <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/04/29/sonys-xperia-tablet-z-up-for-pre-order/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">water-resistant</a> device tech a notch with the launch of the Xperia ZR, a new 4.6-inch, 720p Android smartphone that's waterproof to 1.5 meters (5 feet). Sony boasts that its new device will let you film your snorkeling adventures in full HD quality, with HDR in both video or 13-megapixel stills thanks to the Exmor RS image sensor -- there's also a dedicated camera button like the one on the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/xperiazl/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Xperia ZL</a>. The handset packs a Snapdragon S4 Pro quad-core 1.5GHz CPU, 2GB RAM, LTE, NFC, Sony's Walkman album and movie apps and a notable OptiContrast OLED screen with Bravia tech to reduce glare "even in bright sunlight." There's no word yet on pricing or availability, but as soon as we hear more, we'll try to prep you ahead of that next beach-bound holiday. Meanwhile, you can check the galleries, PR and video after the break for more.</p>

<p>If your current motherboard has more Mountain Dew than CPU, you might be interested in <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/asrock/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">ASRock</a>'s forthcoming <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/haswell/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Haswell</a> offerings. Among the usual features like dual-band 802.11ac-flavored WiFi, HDMI input and a Home Cloud service, <em>Tom's Hardware</em> spotted a mention of "Waterproof by Conformal Coating." The company's sub-site doesn't give too much else away, like how extensive the protection will be, instead simply telling us to "A-Style our lifestyle." The only feature with any amount of detail is a Pure Sound audio system (7.1 channel audio, Realtek ALC1150 audio codec and a TI 5532 pre-amp if you're interested) that <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/03/asrock-purity-sound-motherboards/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">we've already seen</a>. Still, if fluid has been getting between you and your high scores, keep an eye on the source for more info.</p>

<p><strong>Update: </strong>And just like that, ASRock has added more info about the HDMI input, including a demo video which you can find after the break.</p>

Now that the 10-inch Android tablet's been officially announced for global availability, it's time for it to start trickling out to market and (surprise, surprise) Japan's getting first dibs. Starting March 9th, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/nttdocomo/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">NTT DoCoMo</a> will begin accepting pre-orders for the LTE-enabled tablet (in black or white) with a general launch date set for March 22nd. There doesn't seem to be any indication of pricing as of yet, but we've seen figures that indicate this region-specific Xperia Tablet Z could retail for around &yen;85,470 (about $900 USD). If you like what Sony's done with this <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/02/25/sony-xperia-tablet-z-preview/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">waterproof, Jelly Bean tablet</a> and you live in the <em>Land of the Rising Sun</em>, well then you know what to do. For everyone else around the globe, there's always the vague promise of a Q2 launch to cling to.</p>

We were so busy playing with Fujitsu's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/02/25/fujitsu-prototype-gps-cane-hands-on/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">GPS cane</a> and 5-inch <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/02/25/fujitsu-arrows-x-f-02e-hands-on/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">F-02E phone</a> that we didn't even notice the company introduce a waterproof, dustproof Android tablet. As you can see in that shot above, the Stylistic M702 is more than just water-<em>resistant</em>: it meets the standards for IPX5, 7 and 8, which is to say it can withstand immersion in one meter of water for up to 30 minutes. (That, and the occasional jet stream.) A close inspection of the tablet will show that all the ports are sealed with rubber-coated doors, which should keep out liquid as well as dust particles.</p><p> Other than that, this more or less has all the specs you'd expect on a high-end Android tablet, including a 1.7GHz quad-core Tegra 3 processor, a 10.1-inch, 1,920 x 1,200, IPS display, 2GB of RAM, NFC, Bluetooth 4.0, MHL, dual 8MP / 1.2MP cameras and LTE connectivity. The built-in storage tops out at 32 gigs, but fortunately there's a microSD slot to give you more leeway. Out of the box it will run Android 4.0, but an upgrade to Jelly Bean is coming. Interestingly, there's also a small door housing an antenna, but that'll only be offered on the Japanese model; the European config we handled here at CeBIT had just a blank slot. Most impressive of all, potentially, is the claimed battery life: the 10,000mAh cell is rated for 15 hours of runtime, which would be a coup indeed. And at 590g (1.3 pounds) the tablet isn't even that heavy, considering the gigantic battery squeezed inside. It's available now in Europe, Africa, India and the Middle East for &euro;999, which is expensive, sure, but perhaps it's a price corporate customers can swallow anyway.</p>

Now that we're on the cusp of spring, the company is giving equal love to a trio of more specialized shooters arriving in the US. The 20.4-megapixel Cyber-shot HX300 superzoom easily bests its <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/28/sony-cyber-shot-dsc-hx200v-hx30v-hx20v-hx10v-h90/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">HX200V</a> ancestor in the optics department with a 50X, 24-1,200mm equivalent lens that sports better stabilization, but the real allure is its autofocus speed: it can lock in twice as quickly at telephoto distances, giving us more reason to use all that extra reach. The WX300 compact zoom isn't quite as alluring on paper with its 18.2-megapixel sensor and 20X (25-50mm equivalent) lens, although it carries autofocus about 3.6 times speedier than the old HX30 while stuffing in WiFi for simpler photo sharing.</p><p> These two are joined by the TX30, an all-around improvement for last year's waterproof <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/27/sony-announces-quartet-of-cyber-shot-cams-boasts-of-slim-profil/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">TX20</a> camera. While there isn't quite a revolution on the outside, the TX30 can survive twice the depth at 33 feet, carries a longer-zoomed 5X (26-130mm) lens and bumps the resolution to 18.2 megapixels. Both the TX30 and the HX300 will come first, hitting American shops in March at respective $350 and $500 prices. The WX300 will miss March break with its April release, but it will be the cheapest of the pack at $330. <div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sony-cyber-shot-hx300-wx300-and-tx30/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Sony Cyber-shot HX300, WX300 and TX30</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sony-cyber-shot-hx300-wx300-and-tx30/5661217?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/02/dsc-hx300rightjpg_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sony-cyber-shot-hx300-wx300-and-tx30/5661216?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/02/dsc-hx300rearrightjpg_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sony-cyber-shot-hx300-wx300-and-tx30/5661215?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/02/dsc-hx300phantomcutjpg_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sony-cyber-shot-hx300-wx300-and-tx30/5661209?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/02/dsc-hx300topjpg_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sony-cyber-shot-hx300-wx300-and-tx30/5661214?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/02/dsc-hx300frontjpg_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div></p>

For <a href="http://www.engadget.com/topics/sony/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Sony's</a> latest Android tablet take, its <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/20/sony-xperia-tablet-z/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Xperia Tablet Z</a>, the company's extending the austere, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/07/sony-xperia-z-hands-on-ces-2013/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">omnibalance design</a> (focus on all around symmetry and reflective surfaces) and waterproof certification of the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/02/20/sony-xperia-z-review/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Xperia Z</a> to a 10.1-inch footprint and higher 1,920 x 1,200 resolution. Which means the unique, highly polarizing magazine-like fold of its predecessor, the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/24/sony-xperia-tablet-s-review/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Xperia Tablet S</a>, has fallen by the wayside and, according to Sony, it's not likely to ever make a comeback. But a cosmetic evolution isn't all that's propping up the Xperia Tablet Z; its lightly-skinned Jelly Bean OS, quad-core 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro CPU and 2GB of RAM ensure above average performance for this Sony tab. So how does this Z of another frame fare? Follow on, as we take it for a brief test run.</p><p> <div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sony-xperia-tablet-z-hands-on/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Sony Xperia Tablet Z hands-on</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sony-xperia-tablet-z-hands-on/5642727?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/02/dsc06162-1360880988_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sony-xperia-tablet-z-hands-on/5642713?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/02/dsc06126_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sony-xperia-tablet-z-hands-on/5642712?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/02/dsc06125_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sony-xperia-tablet-z-hands-on/5642715?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/02/dsc06128_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sony-xperia-tablet-z-hands-on/5642716?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/02/dsc06129_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div></p>

As you'd expect, this 10.1-inch Android 4.1 tablet features the same design language as its <a href="http://engadget.com/tag/xperiaz?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">smartphone counterpart</a>, but it's what's inside that really sells this device: a Qualcomm 1.5GHz quad-core APQ8064 processor, 2GB RAM, 32GB storage, a 10.1-inch 1,920 x 1,200 screen (with Mobile Bravia Engine 2), an 8.1-megapixel Exmor R camera, NFC, LTE (MDM9215M radio), microSD expansion and Sony's very own "S-Force" virtual surround sound technology. Amazingly, these are all packed tightly into a 6.9mm-thick, 495g-heavy body which not only takes a huge leap from the retiring <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/xperiatablets/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Xperia Tablet S</a>, but it also beats the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/29/toshiba-excite-10-le-launch-details-confirmed/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Toshiba Excite 10 LE</a> that was once the champion in both fields. That's right, Sony now has the world's thinnest and lightest 10-inch tablet! Oh, and did we mention that the Tablet Z is both waterproof and dustproof as well? We'll update you guys once we get hold of info on pricing and availability.</p><p> <strong>Update: </strong>For those wondering, <a href="http://ameblo.jp/povtc/entry-11450001906.html"><em>Blog of Mobile</em></a> says this new tablet packs a 6,000mAh battery, which is actually a tad smaller than the Excite 10 LE's <span>6,690mAh cell. Hopefully Sony's power management will bring its tablet up to about the same mobility performance.</span></p><p> <div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sonys-xperia-tablet-z-announced-1-5ghz-quad-core-10-1-inch-1-920-x-1-200-screen-and-6-9mm-thickness/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Sony's Xperia Tablet Z announced: 1.5GHz quad-core, 10.1-inch 1,920 x 1,200 screen and 6.9mm thickness</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sonys-xperia-tablet-z-announced-1-5ghz-quad-core-10-1-inch-1-920-x-1-200-screen-and-6-9mm-thickness/5585759?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/xperiatabletz-dia_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sonys-xperia-tablet-z-announced-1-5ghz-quad-core-10-1-inch-1-920-x-1-200-screen-and-6-9mm-thickness/5585471?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/xperia-tablet-z-1_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sonys-xperia-tablet-z-announced-1-5ghz-quad-core-10-1-inch-1-920-x-1-200-screen-and-6-9mm-thickness/5585472?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/xperia-tablet-z-2_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sonys-xperia-tablet-z-announced-1-5ghz-quad-core-10-1-inch-1-920-x-1-200-screen-and-6-9mm-thickness/5585473?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/xperia-tablet-z-3_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div></p>

<p class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"> <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/15/runbo-x5-x3-x1/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img alt="Runbo X5 and X3 Androids" data-src-height="418" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/runbo-x5-x3-x1-ces-2013.jpg" /></a></p><p> We've seen a handful of rugged Androids in our time, but none are as affordable and as weird as these ones at <a href="http://www.engadget.com/event/ces2013/articles/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">CES</a>. The backstory here is that a couple of Chinese guys in camouflage gear approached us at our CES stage, and after an awkward conversation, it turned out that they just wanted to show us the three rugged phones they brought all the way from Shenzhen. Starting from the right we have the Runbo (like <em>Rambo</em>?) X1 IP67-certified featurephone cum walkie-talkie, which packs a 2-inch 176 &times; 144 display, a 0.3-megapixel front-facing camera, a laser pointer, quad-band GSM plus 800MHz CDMA cellular radios, 400 to 470MHz range for the software-configurable walkie-talkie (parts of the spectrum may require a licence, depending on your country), a surprisingly loud speaker and a 2,200mAh battery. This will be available for <span>&yen;980 or about $160 on Taobao online store (the Chinese equivalent of eBay) in the next couple of days, and we've been told that there will also be a variant with GPS added.</span></p><p> But the real stars of the show are the two brick-sized vanilla Android 4.0.4 devices. The phone pictured in the middle is the Runbo X5, a device featuring a 1GHz dual-core <span>Cortex-A9 <a href="http://engadget.com/tag/MTK6577?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">MTK6577</a> chipset, 1GB RAM, 4GB storage, microSD expansion, a </span><span>4.3-inch 800 x 480 IPS display, an app-triggered laser pointer, an eight-megapixel main camera, a 0.3-megapixel front camera, a super loud speaker (again) and a <em>massive</em> removable 3,800mAh battery. And yes, this also comes with </span><span>a 400 to 470MHz walkie-talkie radio (up to 10km range; with detachable antenna), along with the additional 850/1900/2100 WCDMA radio, two SIM slots (WCDMA plus GSM), WiFi, Bluetooth 3.0 and GPS. These specs are the same for the Runbo X3 on the left, except for the smaller 3.5-inch 800 x 480 IPS panel to make space for the QWERTY keyboard below it. The best part here are the prices: both of these IP67-certified devices are available on Taobao or the official website for just </span><span>&yen;</span>1,999<span> or about $320, which is a bargain for both the ruggedness and the fact that these double as standard walkie-talkies. US folks can also order directly from eBay for $380, which is also a steal. But does this surprisingly low price reflect the quality? Find out in our hands-on after the break.</span></p><p> <div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a

At Startup Debut 2013 in Las Vegas today we saw the announcement of Liquipel 2.0, which claims to have "significant advancements in durability, corrosion resistance and water protection" than its predecessor. Specifically, the new version is "up to 100 times more effective... while maintaining component integrity and RF sensitivity." Obviously we had to see it to believe it, and to our surprise, this time Liquipel had a demo that let us submerge a 2.0-coated iPhone 5 under <em>two feet</em> of water -- you can see us going bonkers with it in the video after the break.</p><p> According to Managing Director Sam Winkler, a device thoroughly treated with Liquipel 2.0 can actually achieve a liquid protection rating of at least IPX7: immersion at a depth of 1m for 30 minutes. While the iPhone 5 we tortured did eventually take in too much water and thus disabled the touch panel, it quickly came back to life after we shook off some of the water. Winkler added that his company's now offering its 4ft x 4ft "Liquipods" for shops that want to provide the Liquipel treatment themselves, but it'll be a while before all existing partners -- mostly outside the US -- can be upgraded to 2.0. That said, interested customers can already get the 2.0 treatment for the same price via the online service in the US.</p><p> One final note: it turns out that <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/jaybird/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Jaybird</a> also uses Liquipel during the assembly of its sports headphones. Hopefully we'll see more products treated with the same goodness in the near future.</p><p> <em>Follow all the latest CES 2013 news at our <a href="http://www.engadget.com/event/ces2013/articles/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">event hub</a>.</em></p><p> <em>Myriam Joire contributed to this article.</em></p>

Siemens knows this and developed the Aquaris hearing aid, the only one to receive an IP68 rating for continuous submersion underwater (to three feet). It's also dust- and shock-proof, if you're further up the extreme activity lifestyle ladder. It's not just about keeping the elements out, it's also got Bluetooth, meaning wearers can listen to music on smartphones and other devices while underwater.</p><p> The device itself is what you might imagine a hearing aid to look like, if it was given the sports treatment, which makes it attractive to younger folk, and those of an active disposition. Most importantly, it works impressively well, which was amply shown by the demonstration we were given with the device permanently submerged in water at the booth, streaming its audio to another device. The waterproof functionality doesn't come at the expense of the sound, either, with the Aquaris sporting high-definition sound with 48 channels with high frequency resolution and a 12 kHz frequency range. Given the nature of the device, you'll need to speak with your physician or ENT / otolaryngologist if this sounds like something for you.

The formidable device will also sport HDR photo / video capturing capabilities, a "skeleton frame structure" for durability and a so-called Full-HD reality display, according to a fresh leak from Chinese retailer <em>E-price</em> and micro-blogger <em>Weibo</em>. Those go along with specs that Sony <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/01/sony-xperia-z-and-zl-press-shots/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">inadvertently revealed</a> on its own site a few days ago, including a 1080P display, quad-core 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro processor, 2GB RAM, 13MP Exmor RS-equipped rear cam and Adreno 320 graphics. While these latest tidbits ought to be digested with the requisite NaCl, they jibe with the other specs floating around -- so, hopefully Sony will have <em>something</em> to report when it outs the camera for real <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/02/engadgets-ces-2013-preview-smartphones/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">at CES</a> on January 7th.</p>

Keeping up its recent habit of selling <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/27/sony-xperia-tipo-and-tipo-dual-reach-the-us-in-unlocked-form/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">unlocked versions</a> of niche devices, Sony is selling the toughened smartphone in the US as the Xperia advance. The 3.5-inch handset won't initially be a surprise to those who've had a peek at an international version, right through to the out-of-the-box Android 2.3 installation -- you'll be sitting in line for a taste of Ice Cream Sandwich or <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/19/sony-to-start-xperia-upgrades-to-jelly-bean-by-mid-q1/#comments?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Jelly Bean</a> like everyone else. For most, the advantage will rest in a dust- and water-resistant phone that can wield its 3G on AT&amp;T or Straight Talk while being free to use at least basic GSM calling abroad. Be sure to shop around before committing to an Xperia advance, though. While Newegg's $250 price makes a reasonable case, the $300 official cost has our minds wandering to the much more powerful (if more fragile) <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/11/02/nexus-4-review/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+weblogsinc%2Fengadgetmobile+(Engadget+Mobile)?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Nexus 4</a>.</p>

Would that be something you'd cheer or loathe? Thankfully, that's not the question we're posing today -- instead, we're wondering if you'd enjoy a key-like flash drive that's smaller than its predecessor. LaCie's new PetiteKey sort of gives itself away right in the title, being even tinier than the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/14/lacies-itsakey-iamakey-and-passkey-usb-drives-now-available/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">iamaKey</a> that shipped in March of 2009. In fact, it's some 30 percent smaller, and ships with a Wuala Secure Cloud Storage account as well. The unit itself is waterproof up to 100 meters, and LaCie claims that your sultry love letters will be protected "even if dropped in a mud puddle or put through the washing machine." Sadly, the unit only transfers at USB 2.0 speeds, but can be had soon in 8/16/32GB capacities starting at $14.99. Mildly related video can be found after the break. <div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/lacie-petitekey-usb-flash-drive-press-photos/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">LaCie PetiteKey USB flash drive press photos</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/lacie-petitekey-usb-flash-drive-press-photos/5420996?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/11/petitekeypkg_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/lacie-petitekey-usb-flash-drive-press-photos/5420997?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/11/petitekeylaptop_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/lacie-petitekey-usb-flash-drive-press-photos/5420998?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/11/petitekeykeyring_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/lacie-petitekey-usb-flash-drive-press-photos/5420999?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/11/petitekeyback_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/lacie-petitekey-usb-flash-drive-press-photos/5421000?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/11/petitekeyfront_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div></p>

Skip past the creaky Android 2.3, 800MHz processor, 3.2-megapixel camera and 3.5-inch, 480 x 320 display -- a shock- and water-resistant shell as well as Dragontrail-based glass should keep the smartphone working through most forms of casual abuse. We also don't mind having preloaded <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/AmazonAppstore/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Amazon Appstore</a> and media apps, although the frugal 2GB microSD card in the box won't leave much room for any downloading. We'd at least keep the Shockwave on the short list when the $50 price and long-lasting design will leave ample funds for just about everything else.</p>

<p class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="KDDI unveils HTC J butterfly HTL21, the first phone with 5inch 1080p display" data-src-height="410" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/10/htc-j-butterfly-1-1350451958.jpg" /></p><p> We've been hearing about a certain <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/HTC%206435LVW/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">5-inch HTC phablet for Verizon</a> since July, but it looks like its Japanese counterpart may actually hit the market first. Unveiled by <a href="http://engadget.com/tag/kddi?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">KDDI</a> as the HTC J Butterfly (HTL21), this Android 4.1 device is the first announced phone to feature a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/01/sharp-443-ppi-5-inch-smartphone-display-ceatec-2012/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">5-inch, 440ppi full-HD</a> "Super LCD 3" panel, and it's fittingly complemented by a 1.5GHz quad-core <a href="http://engadget.com/tag/apq8064?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">APQ8064</a> underneath, making this the latest member in the small family of Snapdragon S4 Pro phones. There's an eight-megapixel camera that naturally handles 1080p video at the back, accompanied by a 2.1-megapixel front-facing imager. Other details include 2GB RAM, 16GB internal storage, microSDHC expansion, 802.11a/b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0 (LE), NFC, LTE and CDMA/GSM/UMTS/GPRS radios -- that's right, it's a global device. Not bad for a 140g package, <em>and</em> it's waterproof as well, rated at IPX5. But the question is how well will the 2,020mAh battery last under that super dense LCD and high-end processor? Only time will tell -- even KDDI has yet to finalize this part of the specs. Folks on the KDDI network can grab hold of this powerful phone in early December, with a choice of red, white or black.</p><p> <strong>Update: </strong>HTC confirmed to us that this phablet will use panels supplied by Sharp and JDI.</p><p> <div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/kddi-unveils-htc-j-butterfly-htl21-the-first-phone-with-5-inch-1080p-display/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">KDDI unveils HTC J Butterfly (HTL21), the first phone with 5-inch 1080p display</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/kddi-unveils-htc-j-butterfly-htl21-the-first-phone-with-5-inch-1080p-display/5366144?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/10/htc-j-butterfly-htl21-3v-black_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/kddi-unveils-htc-j-butterfly-htl21-the-first-phone-with-5-inch-1080p-display/5366145?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/10/htc-j-butterfly-htl21-3v-white_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/kddi-unveils-htc-j-butterfly-htl21-the-first-phone-with-5-inch-1080p-display/5366146?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/10/htc-j-butterfly-htl21-3v-red_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div></p>

As long as internal documents gleaned by <em>MobileSyrup</em> prove true, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Bell/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Bell</a> should be carrying Samsung's ruggedized 4G phone as the Galaxy Rugby LTE on November 1st. Other than the name change, it's likely to be a match for the AT&amp;T version down to the very wide frequency support we <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/07/25/samsung-sgh-i547-runs-through-cert-gauntlets-with-quad-band-lte/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">saw at the FCC</a>, when it appeared as the SGH-i547. You're looking at a modest 4-inch screen, 768MB of RAM and 5-megapixel rear camera, but also a quick 1.5GHz dual-core processor, Android 4.0 and that dust- and waterproof body. Pricing is an unknown, although the partly toned-down features imply that the Galaxy Rugby LTE will skew well below the $160 contract price for a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/20/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-review-shootout-atandt-vs-sprint/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Galaxy S III</a> on Bell's network.</p>

Now, the unlocked handset will be available for $50 less than previously listed.</p>

This time out it's the follow-up to the company's rather colorful <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/21/toshibas-waterproof-camileo-bw10-does-1080p-video-5-megapixel/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">BW10</a> from last year. Enter the adequately named BW20. Aside from nabbing a numerical bump on its moniker, the BW20 brings the same 1080p video recording found on its predecessor, plus improved waterproof capabilities that now allow the camcorder to handle up to 16 feet below water. Perhaps, the most interesting fact here is the BW20's new price tag, which is now $130 -- 20 bucks less than the BW10. You can snag one for yourself now at the source link below; in the meantime, there's an appealing press shot gallery for your viewing pleasure down below. <div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-camileo-bw20-press-shots/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Toshiba Camileo BW20 press shots</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-camileo-bw20-press-shots/5299468?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/09/7883885168cf30065e59c_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-camileo-bw20-press-shots/5299469?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/09/788388641857f6d6428bc_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-camileo-bw20-press-shots/5299470?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/09/78838867985800d5ee53c_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-camileo-bw20-press-shots/5299471?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/09/7883887056c4cac89f3ac_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div></p>

The Regza SD-P100WP is more than just a portable DVD player, of course -- for one thing, the gadget's got a 1024 x 600 display, for watching your stories on the go. There's also a built-in TV tuner and wireless LAN, so you can watch content recorded on network-connected Toshiba TVs and Blu-Ray players. Oh, and then there's the IPX7-level waterproofing, for when you absolutely need to catch up on old seasons of <em>Breaking Bad </em>on the beach. The SD-P100WP has an SD slot for playing music, looking at pictures and the like, and should give you about eight hours of DVD-watching on a charge.</p>

The <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/15/motorola-defy-leaves-the-gym-coming-this-fall-with-slightly-mo/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">IP67 certification</a> and Gorilla Glass also make it dustproof, but apart from that, the device carries pedestrian specs: Android 4.0, 1GHz dual-core processor, 800 x 480 screen and 5-megapixel rear camera. As with other <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/07/htc-one-s-family-arrives-in-china/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">recent models</a> in China aiming down the middle of the road, the A660 boasts several colors, and supports WCDMA + GSM networks with <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/20/samsung-galaxy-s-duos-official/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">dual-SIM</a> / dual-standby capability. There's no word yet on how much or when, but don't start shopping for lime green or burnt orange furniture to match just yet -- few of <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/lenovo,smartphone?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Lenovo's smartphones</a> have crossed the Great Wall.</p>
