In the past, accidentally dropping your iPhone into a pool, bathtub, or toilet could lead to malfunctions. However, times have changed, and modern iPhones come equipped with a certain level of dust and water resistance. Nevertheless, when water seeps in, iPhones may face audio quality issues such as a muffled speaker or no sound at all. This article guides you on how to expel water from the speaker on your iPhone without the need for a trip to the store.
During the September 13th event, Apple introduced the USB-C charging port on the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and 15 Pro Max, replacing the traditional Lightning port. This standard, globally approved for charging and directly transferring data for various devices like iPad, AirPods, Apple Watch, marks a significant shift in Apple's charging technology.
