Gopro8 black not waterproof [ New ]

[apetrescu]

I used my new go pro 8 black for first time in my holiday and now is full of water:( camera was well closed I wanted to do a try in the pool and now it has water in the lense, screen and inside, next to battery, memory card-> looks like is ruined. It supposed to work up to 10m, this happened at 10 cm water. Extremely dissapointed. What can I do? Can I still use it this holiday or i bought last model to wait for next year holiday?:(

Hi @apetrescu

So long as the camera door is closed, the HERO8 Black is waterproof down to 10m (33ft) without a housing.
While water damage is usually not covered by the warranty, let our Support Team take a look at what happened.

Thanks!
