What to know before buying

The listing gives a water-repellent level and separately describes a water-resistant finish. Treat these as surface-protection claims, not a guarantee of waterproofing. The 17-inch compatible-device maximum and the feature description's 11-inch tablet limit are listing claims, so check fit against your actual devices.
