The clip itself is under 8 minutes long, but\u00a0Straley left the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus in bowls of water for over one hour.<\/p>\n<p>If you look closely, you\u2019ll notice air bubbles being released from both devices while they\u2019re in the water \u2014 most noticeably from the headphone jack on the iPhone 6s Plus. This suggests water was slowly making its way inside, but the iPhone doesn\u2019t\u00a0seem to mind it.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Is Apple&#039;s iPhone 6S and 6S Plus Waterproof?

Straley also confirmed to\u00a0<em>9to5Mac\u00a0<\/em>that the Lightning port and headphone jack continue to work.<\/p>\n<p>While this is excellent news, we don\u2019t recommend you get your iPhone 6s wet unnecessarily. Just because Straley\u2019s handsets survived, it doesn\u2019t mean yours will. Another\u00a0thing to remember about water damage is that it can take some time to ruin your device.<\/p>\n<p>Once liquid has made its way inside gadgets like this, there\u2019s a chance that it will cause corrosion over time, ruining the logic board and other internal components. Although these devices appear fine for now, then, issues could arise later on.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s nice to know, however, that if you do happen to spill a glass of water on your new iPhone, it\u2019s likely to be okay.<\/p>\n<div class=\"infinite-scroll-metadata\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"sourcevia-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"sourcevia fCaps fLS0\"><span class=\"label fLS1\">SOURCE<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=t_HbztTpL08\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YOUTUBE<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"sourcevia fCaps fLS0\"><span class=\"label fLS1\">VIA<\/span> <a href=\"http:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2015\/09\/26\/iphone-6s-plus-waterproof\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">9TO5MAC<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple\u2019s latest iPhones aren\u2019t officially water-resistant, but they don\u2019t seem to mind a little soak.
