Did the iPhone 7 survive our water test?

Apple's new iPhone 7 isn't completely waterproof, but we put it through some extreme dunk tests to find out how much it can really handle.

Who else is still scared to put their iPhone 7 in the water😂

[subscriberswithnovideos]

Who else is here now because they know they can finally afford it.

I'm sorry, no hate, but if you trash the speakers on the first test, and then dunk it underwater again for the next test, they are obviously not going to work properly because you ruined them on the first go😂

That doesn't make sense, if you had issues with the speakers from the first test, you should let it either dry out and/or use a different IPhone for each test so you have a base line. Basically your diluting the test for all the test after the initial one.

Speakers will start back working once they dry out

I have an iPhone 7 and I'm too scared to put it in water 🤦‍♀️

Who else is watching this on an iPhone 7 lel

It's a bit stupid to do all these tests with the same iPhone. You keep putting a warning sign next to the speaker verdict. How do we know how the speaker would work if we just dropped it and didn't leave it for 30 minutes

It's "water resistant" not "water proof" guys

''this is your iphone this is your iphone on water''

am i the only one who think that this dude is a huge weirdo

[jbwzrd]

I thought the iPhone didn't activate "stereo" mode unless it was sideways, not in portrait. Anyone know?

I used my 7Plus 2' below water for 4 mins. Absolutely no issues after use.
However, when using it underwater, my No1 irritation was that the screen buttons and sliders had close to 50% non-responsiveness.

Reports coming in from all over the world, sales of RICE have dropped humongously...

I dropped my iphone 7 in a lake for a day and found it when I went to look for it while I was snorkeling. It was working perfectly and the speaker was fine

[acreation]

I wouldn't do this again to my iPhone after I submerge my Samsung Galaxy A70 in the water and I need to buy a new one which is the iPhone 7.
I've learned my lesson.

[Smartsparky]

It baffles me that people in the tech industry don't have a bloody clue. Stereo Speakers are only designed to operate when the iPhone is in landscape. FAIL.

I dropped my iPhone 6s in water for 30 mins ur probably wondering why I left it for 30 mins I didn't know it was in the water I thought I lost it and I started looking for it then I found it and freaked out everything worked except for my speakers and after a day in the middle of my phone a blue dot started to appear and a couple days later it got bigger and bigger then after a couple days it went away and my sound came back in my phone it was like nothing ever happened

Lol Why am I watching this? I don't even have an iphone 7😂
