The Kyocera Hydro Edge is an affordable, waterproof smartphone that has built-in protection from life’s aquatic accidents, like getting caught in a rainstorm or the sprinklers, or dropping it into a puddle, lake, pool, sink, tub or the dreaded toilet! It is IP57 certified for protection from sprayed water (like sprinklers or rainstorms) and full immersion in up to a meter (3.28 feet) of water for up to 30 minutes. The Kyocera Hydro Edge is available for just $19.99 at Sprint with a 2-year contract OR for $149.99 at Boost Mobile without a contract. Compare that to expensive protective cases or other high-end waterproof devices costing anywhere from $200 to $600. At those affordable price points, on-the-go tweens and teens can get an attractive, full-featured Android smartphone that can handle their hectic, accident-prone lives as they go back to school this Fall. In addition, Hydro Edge features Kyocera’s proprietary Smart Sonic Receiver technology to help hear more clearly in loud places, so you know your teen is hearing you when you tell him to come home and study (that is, if he actually answers a phone call).
