The screen in DT3 Mini it’s a 1.19 inch IPS display small compared to smartwatches of the same series but has good content and details, and because it has a resolution of 390*390 pixels with a high refresh rate.

Waterproof

With IP68 waterproof in DT3 Mini, It means you can wear it while washing hands or on rainy days, although the watch is not approved for swimming but is good for wearing for activities, so, I do not recommend swimming or exposing it to hot water or saltwater to avoid any harm Long or short term and with the presence of a speaker and a microphone, avoiding it will be good, however, if it’s exposed to water in any way, I prefer to dry the watch after immersing it in water and before operating it so that it stays with you for as long as possible.
