5 of the best pool gadgets

Planning on doing some swimming (and poolside lounging) this summer? Here are five aqua-friendly products you should pack along with your Speedos.

Panasonic Eluga

£369 SIM free, Panasonic
Smartphones are rarely waterproof unless you kit them out with a special case, but Panasonic has built the Android-powered, 7.8mm thin Eluga with H2O in mind: you can submerge it in up to a metre of water for up to 30 minutes. Don’t take it to the bottom of the deep end for a bit of underwater texting, then – but if you want to yak to your mum while doing the doggy paddle, this is the phone for you.
