LOL! I don't think any device will ever be THAT waterproof. It's easier, safer, and more effective to just get a UV sterilizer and toss it in there for 10 minutes. There's a device called Homesoap that will do even 14" MacBooks. You can also use it to sterilize your keys, credit cards, etc..
I use dish soap, always hold it so the charge port faces down, been doing it daily to several phones since before the pandemic even started. My old iPhone X has been washed with soap and water hundreds of times now, works just like the day I bought it. Did the same to my 11 pro max, and even my cheap Samsung S20FE.
It will result in stupid cases that have to have open spaces for the buttons, providing less protection and allow more ingress of foreign materials that you are trying to keep out.
I know it's supposed to be able to withstand that but I have never risked it. But this is good to know.
I have done that only with the Apple Watch. I know the iPhone is supposed to be able to withstand this but I have never risked it. But good to know some people have done it and it's fine.
You have your Apple Watch Ultra for that.
Disagree. Buttons always wears out, especially on iPhones. I feel they use flimsy switch materials or something because they’re always going mushy or the click gets weak. Meanwhile the home button on my decommissioned iPhone 7 is just as tight and clicky as the day I got it
The biggest problem with that is the type of charger that they have. Apple uses a proprietary charger system that not one car manufacturer supports. Why? Because they have to be prepared in case you have an android phone. Even at Cadillac which has marketing data that shows that 97% of Cadillac owners have iPhones, we still don’t get the Apple charging system. And of course the industry standard system is terrible. I am looking at buying a new GM full size SUV. I have settled on the GMC. It’s ungodly expensive at this point in time. But it next to impossible to get all the parts and that makes it so hard to build new vehicles. But as a part of the manufacturing process ,not being able to get all of the parts needed to build it as designed. In my case they can’t supply the wireless charging system. I really don’t care. I have noted that I can add a MagSafe charger in the place where the wireless charger would be and charge using the Apple charger system.
This is the real reason why Apple wants to do this. It will drastically cut down repair costs. The real buttons break. These ones won’t.
Right???? I dont think until they remove sim globally they can go through with haptic buttons just yet… good point idk how they would if they didn’t.
Solution to a problem none of us have.
