Apple technology to make Apple Watch waterproof
The Apple Watch Series 2 speaker is the only opening where water can enter. All other openings are sealed.
Apple has installed a feature that allows the speaker to purge any water that may be trapped inside it. When you take your Apple Watch out of “Swim” mode, the speaker vibrates on its own, expelling water. This keeps your device safe and increases water resistance.
