If your phone got wet in the rain, dropped in water, and spilt liquid over it. It badly affects the working of the iPhone. According to the latest study, 25% of smartphone users have damaged their smartphones with water or other liquid.
Liquid penetrating a smartphone can affect the device in various ways. It could lead to:
- blurry photos if moisture gets trapped in the camera lens
- ruffled audio, or no audio
- liquid droplets under the screen
- an inability to charge
- the rusting of internal parts or
- a total end to all functionality.
Because of water damage, mobile companies launched new phones advertised as “water resistant” This doesn’t mean they are waterproof and immune to water. Water resistance implies the device can handle some exposure to water before substantial damage occurs.
How to fix a water-damaged iPhone?
If your iPhone dropped in water and you are wondering what to do, these are a few steps you need to take to recover from potential damage.
- Turn the iPhone off immediately: This removes the chance that the phone will short-circuit and need to be repaired.
- Remove your case if you have one or anything that might be trapping water in the phone.
- Remove your iPhone sim card tray, which could also trap water.
- Wipe your iPhone down with an absorbent cloth. Wrap a small piece of porous material around a toothpick or pin to soak water from the charging port, headphone jack, and SIM card tray.
