Alan, an ardent smartphone enthusiast and a veteran writer at PhoneArena since 2009, has witnessed and chronicled the transformative years of mobile technology. Owning iconic phones from the original iPhone to the iPhone 15 Pro Max, he has seen smartphones evolve into a global phenomenon.

Until phone manufacturers start covering water damage in their warranties, you can assume that there is always the possibility that water can find a way into your device and damage it. Yet, like most phone makers, will say that their handsets are able to survive getting submerged to a certain depth of clear water for a specific length of time and emerge from the water in perfect working condition.

Zukran, who plies his trade for the LPC Avocats firm, wants Apple to void the part of its warranty that prevents water damage from being covered. He also wants Apple to reimburse those who had to pay to repair their iPhone damaged by water or purchase a new unit, and pay the members of the class an additional $500 each.

In 2022, a U.S. district judge dismissed a suit charging Apple with misrepresenting iPhone water resistance. The judge said that it was plausible to believe that Apple's ads could mislead consumers into thinking that the iPhones they purchased were protected from water ingress. However, the judge ruled that the plaintiffs presented no evidence proving that their phones were damaged by"liquid contact.
