Hero 7 - Changing settings by itself when in water touch the screen

[bravetree1520]

I bought the Hero7 Black yesterday.
Awesome device!

But when I entered into the water the settings changed by itself...
So I noticed that all the times that the water touch the LCD screen the menu changes... change from video to photo mode.. and other settings.

Actually this is very annoying! :(
Is that a defective or is it ok?

Thank you!

if youweet your fingrs  and touch the smartphone...

 waht you do wit hteh gopro is  lock the screen and use the side button to change modes.  water sensitive.

also it will react to heat as well cold,   enjoy your camera
