iPhone 11 lay at the bottom of the lake for six months and remained functional

Most modern water-resistant smartphones comply with the IP68 degree of protection, which means that the device should easily withstand a half-hour submersion to a depth of 1 meter.

Of course, often smartphones can actually withstand significantly more severe water tests, but manufacturers do not need to guarantee this.

Another example of how good water resistance can be was the iPhone 11, which spent six months at the bottom of Lake Harrison in British Columbia. He was found by divers who explored the bottom of the lake in search of lost things and debris.

It turned out that the iPhone is almost completely functional, with the exception of the microphone and some problems with the speakers. As a result, the smartphone was returned to the owner, who at first thought it was a joke.

It is unclear how deep the iPhone 11 lay, but the video shows that it is clearly more than a meter.
