So I got my iPhone 7+ for just 5 days, went to took some pictures/videos near and in the pool. Phone was never submerged more than 2 feet for more than 1 minute. I didn't think that would be an issue since I watched that Galaxy S7 / iPhone 7 video in that Seattle lake.
Anyhow, phone started vibrating near the home button nonstop and now won't turn on. I'm in a dilemma - should I just return this or actually tell Apple what happened? I know Apple has been careful to not cover water damage in their agreement; however, I feel like I've been somewhat misled and/or received a lemon.
I really think this phone was a lemon. I took great care of it, bought a case right away and never dropped it. I read here that they had some manufacturing difficulties with the Jet Black. Perhaps that's what happened, they cannot get the right quality control and seal the phones properly.
Hope this story can help others not brick their phone, first and foremost.
