Let's have a look at how to tell if your iPhone X, iPhone XS or iPhone 11 has been water damaged by looking at the water damage indicator sticker hidden inside the SIM card tray. We'll also have a closer look at this sticker by opening up the phone and having a look at where it is located and how it works.
If you've got any suggestions for tech videos, repairs or reviews which you'd like me to do, leave a comment in the video description.

Hi Michael , great video and very informative. If I had the front glass replaced (not by apple) could the sticker be removed or covered while putting the new glass on the phone? It appears my phone is now missing the sticker, although I can't say I saw the sticker before the glass was repelaced as I did not look for it beforehand.

changed the screen on an XSM that I suspected may have gotten wet at some point as the indicator on the screen was red and the inside smelled a bit musty, couldnt find any indicator in the sim tray. new screen seemed to work without issue (old screen had a purple line on it indicating lcd dmg) but I let the owner know of the issue and that they may experience further issues later on, of which I am not responsible for.

Hi Michael, I have a question. I had the phone in the water for about 2 seconds. I was missing one screw on the bottom of the phone. Everything was fine, the next day I was able to call normally, but after 2 hours of the call, the phone started beeping during the call. The sound on the front and back camera works fine, the voicemail does the same thing as a call (beep) The SIM indicator is fine. I don't want to reach inside the phone because I'm worried about the possible warranty (I have no idea if only the service can open it), otherwise I have experience with it, but I'd rather go after the warranty. Thank you for you answer.

I'm planning to buy iPhone X used and i wanted to basically check if everything is working totally fine. So i did watch a lot of videos on KZfaq of checking this and that. But i was wondering if i could just take the iPhone and show it to the Apple service centre and ask them to check everything and run all types of tests over it. So will they do it or not and also what the might ask me to pay. Thank you.

my OG Iphone SE (2016) works great except the battery life. But Apple said they'd only replace the battery ($49) if they fix the water damage for $200. The phone shuts off when ambient temps reach the 50s and the colder it is, the likelier it will shut off. The phone also doesn't turn on if the phone is too cold. Now I'm either getting the iPhone 12 mini or Pixel 5a. I'm mostly concerned about overall longevity of the phone especially battery life.

Michael Klements There is no official apple store in my country, and even though I have the warranty card I guess it will be useless. I have been an iphone user for the last 6 years, and I have always been satisfied until now. This is such a major issue and this should be highlighted more
@MichaelKlements
@MichaelKlements 3 жыл бұрын
Yes, it is frustrating when you know that the phone wasn't submerged. The trouble is that water resistance is quite complex and depends on both the submerged depth and the duration, both of which are difficult to measure on the actual device. So Apple provides a level of water resistance but they don't guarantee it. You'll also see that they always use the words "water-resistant" rather than "waterproof".

Hi Piyu. Although the newer iPhones are advertised as being water resistant, this doesn't mean that you should intentionally submerge them and they're not designed for underwater videos and photos. Apple don't generally replace or repair water damaged iPhones. If you do have the option then go with a replacement, repairs don't always pick up all of the problems and some issues may only show up after a few months.

I would avoid spraying anything into the phone. The phone is pretty well sealed, so the water doesn't really have anywhere to go. All you'll be doing is moving it around in the phone and possibly damaging more components. The best would probably be to open it up and dry it out properly if it's still working.

I turned it off again and let it sit for 24 hours. when I took the sim card out during hour 23 I think, I couldn't see any light at all. I used a flashlight but I couldn't see any red or white. is it completely dead?

If your phone starts acting up after coming in contact with water (seawater is the worst) then its likely water damaged and could be dead. If you're unsure of the phones condition you could try opening it up yourself or taking it to Apple to asses (if its still under warranty). You might find that opening it up, disconnecting the battery and allowing it to completely dry out saves the phone, although this is quite a slim chance.

If your phone is still under warranty then it's worth trying to take it in and see what they say. If there is any sign of water on the indicator or on any of the other internal indicators then they probably won't repair it under warranty.

The stickers don’t mean everything. That’s why they keep trying to seal them up. Naturally these stickers may redden with time or condensation. So if Apple can’t guarantee this phone was deliberately dropped theyll cover it. If they think they can they’ll ask you to pay for it or you’ll admit it. Apple has an extremely high Margin on their products. Meaning the phones not worth no where anywhere what you paid. So customer care is a priority. They do try to take care of the customers. AppleCare or Apple Store. They will fix a lot of things they shouldn’t fix. Or stuff that most companies would say no too. Two reasons. My 3,500 computer isn’t worth 3,500 on widows plat form. And a 1 thousand dollar iPhone is around 180 bucks to make. They have loyalty and reliability. But they charge for that. Short story take it in. See what they say. They already got your money. Lol If you bought their most expensive computer today. It’s almost 10 grand. A set of wheels for it is $700. That means the wheels on that computer cost almost as much as the tires on my BMW. They aren’t gonna question much. You paid up front and didn’t know it. Now if this was Nokia or Samsung they’d probably shut you down faster than you could say please. But point is you kinda already paid for it

Sometimes water gets into the phone and its not enough to damage it immediately but eventually the water or water vapour damages the components. Try opening the phone up, unplugging the battery and allowing it to dry for a few days while open. Can you still feel it vibrate and sound if you press the buttons and plug it in to charge?

It would be that a drop or knock has partially dislodged a connector or damaged the screen, or it may be water damage. If the phone is still under warranty then take it to Apple to asses. If not then you could try open the phone up and check the other internal indicators around the ear piece and lightning port.

If the problem started right after swimming with your phone then it’s quite likely. Water damage can vary, from a little getting in around the speaker and damaging a single component (like the FaceID sensor) to a lot getting in through the SIM card tray and destroying the logic board.

Odd question.. I was outside working on my car tonight and it suddenly started to pour rain. Amidst the scramble to cover everything I realized my phone was still on my car playing music, and it was plugged in... It was working fine when I grabbed it, immediately unplugged it, and though audio was a little muted, it seemed normal when I turned the music off(inside now). I dried it off, set it down and walked away, came back a little later and it was unresponsive, a little warm still and making an odd, almost inaudible high pitched noise that stopped a few seconds later. I pulled the sim and let it sit for a while, the lci is still white, but the phone is still unresponsive a few hours later... I am going to wait overnight and most of the day tomorrow, but what do you think is the matter? If the lci is white it would likely mean no water damage right? Just freaking out a little as I have some important work for some finals I still need to take on there. Thanks!

No not necessarily, it just indicates that some moisture has gotten inside your phone. Sometimes enough moisture gets into the sim tray to turn the indicator red without actually damaging the iPhone. A red indicator doesn't guarantee that the hone won't work but a phone which doesn't work and has a red indicator won't be covered under warranty.
