The IPX2 rating is a code that indicates the level of protection of an electronic device against water. The abbreviation 'IP' stands for Ingress Protection, an international standard for durability. The letter 'X' in the code indicates that the device has not been tested for resistance against the ingress of solid particles, such as dust. The digit '2' then specifies that the product is protected against dripping water falling on it at an angle of up to 15 degrees from the vertical. In practice, this means that headphones, speakers, or players with this certification can withstand, for example, light rain or sweat during sports. However, they are not intended for submersion in water or for use in heavy rain.
