If you'd prefer your phone to do your swimming while you remain on dry land, the waterproof G'zOne Type-S, with its Bluetooth connectivity, will keep you chatting as the surf pounds. But I honestly prefer the previous model, the G'zOne Type-V. That said, Casio's second rugged phone made for the US, the G'zOne Type-S will be your cheerful companion in the bathtub, swimming pool, salty surf, or rain forest. I first took mine to the bottom of a swimming pool, made calls with the phone half under water ("glub glub glub"), placed Bluetooth calls with the phone in a jug of water (they sounded totally normal) and, finally, froze the G'zOne into a block of ice and let it slowly thaw back to normalcy.
