No, iPhones are not 100% waterproof, but many recent models are water-resistant. Most iPhones have a rating based on the IP (Ingress Protection) standard, which typically indicates their resistance to dust and water. For instance, many recent iPhones, such as the iPhone 12 and later models, have an IP68 rating, meaning they can withstand submersion in water up to a certain depth (usually up to 6 meters for a period of time).
However, water resistance can diminish over time due to wear and tear, and exposure to certain conditions like saltwater, chlorine, or high-pressure water can harm the device. It’s always best to avoid exposing your iPhone to water when possible and to refer to Apple’s guidelines regarding water resistance for your specific model.
