Is Your Apple iPhone Waterproof?

Are you wondering if your Apple iPhone is waterproof? The sheer number of iPhone models out there makes it confusing to figure out which one is right for you. The “waterproof” feature is a big pull factor for most iPhone owners.

Before you jump off in a pool or swim in the ocean with your iPhone, you should note that no phone, including your iPhone 15 max, is waterproof, at least not 100%. Waterproof iPhones or any other phones for that matter are a myth. The term most phone makers use is “water-resistant” instead of “waterproof”. This means that the mobile has protection against water damage and “splash”. However, prolonged exposure to water or any liquid may cause significant damage to the device.

Apple has been offering water-resistant phones from the iPhone 7 onwards. While phone models before iPhone 7 are not water resistant, iPhone 11 Pro models and above offer the highest water protection. That being said, prevention is still better than cure. Don’t go testing your iPhone’s “water-proof” capabilities.

IP Water Resistance Rating for iPhone Models

To understand or judge the water-resistant level of your iPhone, look at its IP rating. The International Electrotechnical Commission has an IP code that defines the resistance of your phone against liquids and solid objects. If you are planning to buy an iphone but are unsure if the iPhone 12 mini is waterproof or if the iPhone 13 is water resistant, here are their water-resistance ratings.
