On the contrary iPhone and other devices currently have a certain level of water resistance, sometimes the depth of the drop can play tricks on us and logically it gives us a bad time. If our devices are still sensitive to liquids and seep inside to the point where it can’t be removed even with a bag of rice, maybe it’s a small solution, but This will depend entirely on where the liquid in question resides.. The Verge editor David Pierce stepped forward Task to check if there is a video that promises to remove water from mobile speaker Is this true or just a simple coincidence?

Can a video clear the water from your iPhone or mobile phone?

The video in question, uploaded to YouTube, has been watched more than 45 million times in just 4 years. How many people will resort to this route in an extreme emergency by now in 2024? If we pay attention to the comments section, a significant portion of them claim that this worked and their phones were saved.

In the case of David Pierce, he turned to his nephew when his cell phone slipped out of his pocket and fell into the river.. Fortunately, despite the depth, they found it and began intensive drying work. One of his friends suggested looking for one of these videos and Miraculously, the phone worked as if nothing had happened..

The iPhone has a similar system to detect liquids

This and many more Other experiences may prompt you to consider whether it might be better to play one of these videos instead of resorting to the bag of rice. Or is it just in some cases? It should be noted that there is an Apple product, the Apple Watch, that does exactly the same thing to expel trapped water, using a button mechanism that triggers a short sound to expel any remaining water in the speaker.

Bose and iFixit are right, although there is a “but”

I’m not happy thinking about how the video performed on YouTube. David Pierce contacted the folks at Bose and iFixit and got some interesting answers to his video questionWritten by Eric Freeman, Bose Senior Research Director; He stated that the speaker creates a natural air-propulsion mechanismIf sufficient air is provided by the pushing force possible, the liquid can be expelled if it is in that area.

It’s a matter of cranking up the low tone of an iPhone or cell phone’s speaker to its highest level.. The problem is that mobile speakers are not very big, quite the opposite. Videos on YouTube are structured with a low range where the sound can be played but requires deeper bass.

iFixit took on the task of providing a more detailed answer. They tested 4 mobile phones, including the iPhone 13. The performance was regular. A few drops were dropped on all mobile phones, the video effect works.

Why is there a “but” in this case? The problem is that it depends on where the liquid is on the phone. This will cause the device to malfunction. If it is in the SIM card slot, buttons, any of the camera lenses, or the charging port, the video will not work for some reason. This will also depend on how well the mobile phone is protected in terms of water resistance.A new mobile phone is more likely to be registered than an old mobile phone.

Keep your device away from water

The tests performed and the descriptions collected from the folks at iFixit and Bose make one thing clear. Mobile companies do not offer a liquid drain mechanism as an emergency alternative in case the mobile falls into waterThe problem is that these are more holes than watches and fewer, which would make it easier to fit an ejection mechanism for them than to fit a phone, said Shahram Mokhtari, iFixit’s lead teardown engineer.

It is very rare for water to penetrate a move; this will depend on the depth and the move itself.In the unfortunate event that your iPhone or mobile phone falls into water, you can play that video hoping for good results.
