More than 82 millions phones are damaged each year after being dropped down the toilet, into swimming pools or lost at the beach.
每年都有超过8200万部手机因为掉进厕所、泳池或在海滩上丢失而损坏。

A number of waterproof handsets have been released to solve this problem, but Comet takes it to the next level.
手机厂商发布了多款防水手机来解决此类问题,但Comet则在这个基础上将防水功能升级。

Not only is the Android handset IPx7 water-resistant, it has been designed to float meaning owners don't have to fish it out from the bottom of the sea, or stick their hand into a toilet basin.
这款安卓手机的防水等级为IPx7,更能浮在水面,这意味着手机用户再也不用从海底或是将手伸进马桶的便盆里捞手机了。

Comet was designed by California-based Prashanth Raj Urs who has launched an Indiegogo campaign to fund production of the device.
Comet手机由加利福尼亚州的普拉桑特•拉杰•乌尔斯设计,他在Indiegogo网站发起了众筹活动,来筹集生产该设备的资金。

The LED lights will then display different colours to suit these different moods.

Comet additionally features an encryption tool called Qlock.

Early Bird prices for the phone start at $279 for a 32GB handset, and the first devices are expected to ship to campaign backers in April.
