I know this was probably some washed up hack of an editor and not the author of the actual story but the title reads:
> Here's What's Making the iPhone 6S Secretly Waterproof
> You only have to tear it open to find out
And the article then concludes.
>OK so there's definitely some waterproofing at work here. Then why didn't Apple mention it? Probably because it isn't complete. The headphone jack and speaker grill are still vulnerable to water damage, so the phone isn't really waterproof. At least not yet. It's understandable that Apple wouldn't want to advertise a feature while it's still half-baked.
What in the actual fuck? Not only is this an attempt to garner readers with a click-baity article title, the SAME ARTICLE explicitly contradicts the click-bait headline. Honestly can't get much shittier than this.
- unwind 11y agoI also enjoyed this gem: iFixit even found what appear to be silicone seals around the logic gates of the iPhone's logic board. That really helps build my trust for Popular Mechanics.
