The Redmi Watch 5 Active features a 5ATM water resistance rating, which means it can withstand water depths of up to 50 meters. However, this does not imply that it can be used underwater for activities like making calls. The watch is suitable for shallow water activities such as swimming in pools or near the shore, but it should not be used in conditions involving high water pressure, like diving or snorkeling[1][2][4].
While the Redmi Watch 5 Active supports Bluetooth calling, allowing you to make and receive calls, this functionality is designed for use in dry conditions. The watch's water resistance is primarily for protection against accidental exposure to water, such as rain or sweat, rather than for underwater use[7][9].
Therefore, making calls underwater with the Redmi Watch 5 Active is not possible or recommended. For any water activities, it's advisable to avoid using the watch's call features underwater to prevent damage and ensure safety. Additionally, the watch lacks specific workout modes for tracking water sports, despite its water resistance capabilities[4][9].
