This Bulletproof Iphone Could Save Your LifeYou’ve heard the news, the ‘iPhone 8’ is meant to be revolutionary: an ‘All glass’ OLED display, a forged steel chassis and it is getting bigger. This means the phones could withstand full submersion in up to 1.5 metres of water for up to 30 minutes. This is a step up from the current IP67 rating on the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus which can survive for the same time but only in one metre of water. Except this doesn’t (if you’ll pardon the pun) wash.As it turned out, the iPhone 7 has a battery barely bigger than the iPhone 6 and the Galaxy S7 already has IP68 water resistance despite keeping the headphone jack. ___Follow Gordon on Twitter, Facebook and Google+More On ForbesApple Leak Reveals New ‘Forged Steel’ iPhoneApple’s Accidental iPhone ‘Leak’ Delivers Bad NewsApple iOS 10.3 Release, It’s A Big OneApple Leak Reveals Biggest Ever iPhoneiPhone 7 Vs Galaxy S7 Review: Should You Upgrade?
