Dans telephone-portable 28/09/2015 Apple n’a pas abordé ce point mais selon un premier test, les deux nouveaux smartphones d’un géant, les iPhone 6s et iPhone 6s Plus sont parfaitement étanches à l’eau. Il s’agit de la conclusion après une heure, un jour et 48 heures d’immersion totale dans un liquide. Apple n’a pas officiellement annoncé que ces deux nouveautés étaient résistantes à l’eau mais selon un test réalisé par Zach Straley, ils fonctionnent parfaitement après plusieurs heures d’immersion. L’homme ne sait pas contenté de faire un test d’une heure puisque plusieurs périodes d’immersion ont été testées avec un maximum de 48 heures. Apparemment, même après un séjour sous l’eau pendant deux jours complets, les smartphones ne rencontreraient presque aucun dysfonctionnement hormis pour l’iPhone 6s avec l’apparition d’une diagonale dans la partie supérieure de son écran. Il semble donc que les nouveaux iPhones sont étanches en eau « peu profonde ». A la fin de chaque test plusieurs points ont été vérifiés comme le bon fonctionnement du TouchID, des haut-parleurs, du port casque 3,5 mm ou encore le rechargement des deux appareils. La grande question est par contre de savoir pourquoi Apple n’a pas évoqué cette caractéristique pourtant importante pour un smartphone. Certains expliquent qu’il s’agirait d’une heureuse coïncidence liée au rude cahier des charges imposé par Apple lors de la fabrication… Nous ne pouvons que vous conseiller de ne pas tenter l’expérience car officiellement Apple n’à jamais parler de cette qualité… Over the past few days, you may have seen reports that the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus are waterproof. In fact, not just reports; there now exist multiple videos that show Apple’s new smartphones surviving extended periods of water submersion. Those videos aren’t fabrications or pranks. Apple’s new iPhones really do hold up under water, thanks to a brilliant new technique that the company quietly pioneered. That’s not to say that you should go tossing your $650+ smartphone in the toilet on purpose. As with all smartphones claiming impermeability, the new iPhones are water-resistant, not fully waterproof. If you do slip, though, you’ve got a better shot at survival than any previous generation of iPhone has offered. And the best part about Apple’s ingenious water-safe solution? It doesn’t affect the phone’s appearance, performance, or repairability in any significant way. Invisible Touch Water resistance itself isn’t a novel smartphone trait; Motorola was touting the submersibility of the Defy+ as long ago as 2011. Rightly so; water’s a killer. “Typically, if you get a phone wet, the danger comes when you have logic board contacts with a charge running through them exposed to water,” explains Jeff Suovanen, an engineer at iFixit who recently took an iPhone 6s apart to study its water-resistant credentials. “They can short out, and afterwards they can start to corrode.” Once that happens, bye-bye phone. Conventional wisdom leans on the brute-force method of coating a device’s case to keep the water out. “That’s what we were looking for,” says Suovanen. “We started looking at the case, the headphone jack, the Lightning port, to see if they did anything to keep water out.” Aside from a thin adhesive strip, though, nothing about the iPhone 6s exterior stood out as substantively different from the iPhone 6. Inside, though, was another story. Suovanen quickly found that rather than waterproof the case, Apple had opted to waterproof the logic board itself. “It’s basically a thin wall, it almost looks like wetsuit material. It’s not that, but it looks like that. It’s soft, spongy, you can press on it and feel it give a little bit,” Suovanen says. “It’s surrounding those little logic board connectors, and then the ribbon cable connects over the top and creates a little pressure seal to keep the water out.” IFIXIT That may sound familiar to Apple patent obsessives; the company filed one for this very technology in March of 2014. In terms of elegance, it’s the difference between trying to throw a tarp over a crowded sidewalk and handing everyone an umbrella. “Some of the other waterproof phones work really well, but this is more straightforward,” explains Suovanen. “Trying to waterproof a case, where you have to leave openings for ports and headphone jacks and things like that, is probably a more difficult way to do it.” Apple’s innovation amounts to introducing tactical strikes to a world that’s only ever known cluster bombing. Seamless Transition It’s natural to wonder what compromises Apple made to fit this new system under an already crowded hood, especially given that the iPhone 6s has a smaller battery than its immediate predecessor. Don’t blame the silicone seals, though, says Suovanen. “The battery capacity is down slightly, but I suspect that has more to do with implementing the 3D Touch technology they came out with,” the teardown specialist explains. “This year’s Taptic Engine is a bigger, thicker vibrator than the iPhone had last year, so they may not have had quite as much room left for the battery.” If a downside to the new seals does exist, no one’s spotted it yet. It might seem odd, then, that Apple hasn’t trumpeted this water-resistance; surely its ability to survive a puddle dunking would have fit somewhere on the company’s marketing materials, or at least somewhere in its on-stage detailing of the devices last month. Outside of better battery life, there’s maybe no more sought-after smartphone trait than simple resilience. Or so one might think. The phones that have offered this level of water resistance, though, haven’t exactly been chart-toppers. The Samsung Galaxy S6 Active; the Sony Xperia Z3; the HTC Desire Eye; these are phones (or variants) you may have heard of, but their aquaphobia hasn’t demonstrably made them any more desirable. Besides which, the new iPhones aren’t necessarily more water-resistant than others, at least not in any way that’s easily perceivable to consumers; they’re just water-resistant in a more clever way. Even if it’s largely invisible to its customers, that cleverness could pay off soon for Apple. “Now that you can pay a small monthly fee and get a new iPhone every year, Apple’s going to be getting a lot of iPhones back,” says Suovanen of the company’s new iPhone Upgrade Plan. “In the long run this may help them save money. Because the iPhones are less susceptible to water damage, they’re getting them back in better condition.” That helps explain, too, Apple opting not to coat the case itself. The same features that make a waterproof case effective make it hell to take apart or repair. “We find a lot of times with waterproof devices that getting in and out is much more difficult,” says Suovanen. “They seal them together often times with glue, and adhesives, and things that are difficult to take apart without destroying them.” That’s not ideal under any circumstances, but especially not if Apple wants to leave open the possibility of reintroducing all those trade-ins to the secondary market. Again, the new iPhone isn’t invincible. If you soak it long enough, you will break it. It will, though, get through accidental drops and drips better than any iPhone before it, and at least as well as almost any other waterproof smartphone out there. Not bad for a feature that didn’t even make the spec sheet. EstNon, l'iPhone 6s n'est pas étanche. Pas officiellement, mais une expérience montre que le nouveaux smartphone d'Apple résistent tout de même assez bien à l'immersion. L'étanchéité est un vrai plus sur smartphone, mais malheureusement la chose est encore assez rare.
Quel iPhone est étanche ?Les modèles suivants ont obtenu l'indice de protection IP68 défini par la norme 60529 de la Commission électronique internationale (profondeur maximale de 2 mètres pendant 30 minutes maximum) : iPhone 11. iPhone XS. iPhone XS Max.. iPhone SE (2e génération). iPhone XR.. iPhone X.. iPhone 8.. EstLes iPhone 7 et 7 Plus ont été les premiers iPhones résistants à l'eau. L'iPhone 7 et l'iPhone 7 Plus ont été les premiers iPhones IP67, ce qui signifie que les téléphones sont résistants aux éclaboussures et peuvent en fait être immergés dans un peu plus de 90cm d'eau pendant 30 minutes sans dommage.
EstCompte tenu de cette note, l'iPhone 8 n'est pas étanche, techniquement parlant. La note d'étanchéité de 7 sur 9 de l'iPhone 8 signifie qu'il peut résister à un dégât des eaux sous 1 mètre d'eau douce pendant 30 minutes.
