Holi 2026 Celebration: Holi is full of colours, water and enjoyable moments with friends and family but is also messy with people throwing water which can become an issue if you have gadgets around.
So, it’s very important to keep our phones close in case of emergencies but also to capture those vibrant moments even though you might think about risking ruining gadgets. 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.
Waterproof bags or cases
Waterproof bags and cases are easily available in the market and very convenient to use. They’re 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.
Use an old phone
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.
Get IP68 Rated Gadgets
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’t have to spend big money anymore, as phones under Rs 35,000 come with this protection.
The Hair Dryer Warning
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’s components in the process. Stick to rice. It works.
And Finally
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.
