Good day DP, thank you for finding the free time out of your busy day to ask us your question about the Samsung Galaxy Buds FE. The Galaxy Buds FE utilize touch pads on the earbuds to control your music, phone calls, and other useful shortcuts without getting out your phone. The touch actions are set to single tap and touch and hold by default. To use all touch actions, from Wear Galaxy Wearable, tap Touch controls to activate the related features. The Galaxy Buds FE are water resistant based on IPX2 rating which is tested with freshwater spray at an angle up to 15 degrees for up to 10 minutes. However, he charging case is not water resistant. If the earbuds or your hands are wet, they must be dried thoroughly prior to handling. If you have additional questions for us, feel free to reach out to Samsung Support. We're always happy to help! Thanks for being a valued Samsung customer. - Debra
