Is a waterproof iPhone a lie?
IPhone models have varying degrees of water resistance. The iPhone 7 advertises its IP67 warranty and provides 30 minutes of optimal performance at a depth of 1 meter. IPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max again obtained IP68 certification, and soon reached a height of 4 meters. On the iPhone 12, this number is said to reach 6 meters in 30 minutes. However, these are all Apple cases… the plaintiff’s client claimed that this was incorrect.
Moreover, customers say that the functionality of the iPhone’s waterproof device is overestimated, and they say that the organization obtained these tests from research institutes that use purified and impure water. He said that this ability is confusing in areas where the water is imperfect and unstable. Additionally, users say their equipment was damaged by water containing chlorine or salt; the problem is not covered by the warranty.
Interestingly, this is not the first time that Apple has not been convicted of the iPhone’s waterproof function. A year ago, the company filed a similar lawsuit in Italy and was fined 10 million euros. However, the only reason for such a huge fine is that the agency did not misrepresent your equipment. Hence, the way in which the guarantee failed to remedy the fluid damage was also convincing in the court’s decision.
