realme, the world’s fastest-growing smartphone brand, has officially set a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title as the upcoming realme C85 5G becomes the “Most People Performing a Mobile Phone Water-Resistance Test Simultaneously.”
The record-setting event took place at the Cilandak Sports Center in Jakarta on 20 November 2025, where 280 participants submerged their realme C85 devices for two minutes in a synchronized formation. Every single device powered back on and passed the official adjudication, with zero failures, proving the model’s exceptional durability and waterproof engineering.
A New Benchmark: IP69 Pro Water Resistance
The achievement highlights realme’s breakthrough IP69 Pro water-resistance standard, the toughest in its segment. It surpasses typical certifications—including IP69K, IP69, IP68, and IP66—combining them into a single, advanced protection system.
The C85 Series is engineered to withstand:
- 36 types of liquids, including chlorinated water, seawater, detergents, and acidic spills
- 30 minutes underwater at 6 meters
- 60 days at 0.5 meters immersion
- Temperatures ranging from 0°C to 85°C
- 2-meter military-grade drop survival (MIL-STD-810H)
For Malaysian users who constantly face sudden downpours and humidity, this translates into real-world peace of mind and a device that thrives through everyday chaos.
Durability Made for Everyone
This GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ accomplishment proves that premium durability is no longer limited to flagship devices. Realme is bringing the same record-breaking resilience to Malaysia through the C85 5G Series—setting a new gold standard in its category.
