Divevolk SeaTouch 6 Pro: next-generation touchscreen underwater housing
As smartphones continue to grow in screen size and camera bump thickness, underwater housing designs must adapt. Divevolk, the inventor of the gel-membrane touchscreen diving case, is developing the SeaTouch 6 Pro as its next flagship housing.
Here is what we know about this new unit and how it fits into the mobile underwater imaging ecosystem.
Expanded touchscreen area for modern flagship screens
Divevolk's core innovation is its conductive gel membrane, which transmits capacitive touch inputs to a phone's glass display through deep water pressure.
The SeaTouch 6 Pro introduces key ergonomic refinements: - A noticeably larger touchscreen window tailored to flagship screens exceeding 6.8 inches. - Smoother corner and edge gesture navigation for native camera apps. - Increased internal depth to fit silica gel packets securely without catching the loading tray.
Lens modularity and wet accessories
The SeaTouch 6 Pro maintains full compatibility with Divevolk's extensive accessory line: - Quick-release bayonet adapters for wet wide-angle domes and close-up macro lenses. - CNC aluminum dual-handle trays for stabilization and video lights. - High-grade composite construction designed to resist saltwater corrosion.

Prototype validation and availability
Pre-production test units are currently undergoing evaluation in diverse marine environments. We will publish comprehensive cold water and pressure test results as soon as validation models arrive in our testing facility.
Fine-tuning your breath-hold and buoyancy control remains the true secret to cinematic underwater video, a core discipline of the AquaExposure training program.
