Rumour Update: Apple to make iPhone 7 waterproof

The iPhone7 is expected to be announced in September.

At this point, with so many rumours floating about Apple’s iPhone 7, another rumour has surfaced. This time the rumour suggests that the iPhone 7 will be waterproof.

Reports on media websites have pointed out that Apple has recently been granted a patent, dropping hints that the iPhone 7 could feature some kind of waterproofing technology. However, the reports don’t specify whether the technology would be implemented on the upcoming iPhone 7 or iPhone 8 or other future products.

Granted by the US Patent and Trademark Office, the patent has been dubbed as a ‘liquid resistance acoustic device’, a water-resistant speaker port that was first introduced in the Apple watch.

Additionally, an earlier report from Mobipicker claims that Apple’s next flagship iPhone 7 may feature its rear-camera with a 21MP sensor. The device is also rumoured to sport a dual-camera, wireless charger, USB Type-C and more.
