In a weird turn of events, the iPhone 7 was able to survive underwater for a full 48 hours and came out without any problems or issues. The iPhone 7 was in a waterproof case and a scuba diver found the phone while she saw it glowing under water. The iPhone 7 had received a text message which made the screen of the smartphone light up and was eventually found by the scuba diver.

We want to know which case was being used that managed to keep the phone alive under water for a full 48 hours. What's even more shocking is that the iPhone had more than 80 per cent charge and managed to remain on for two full days. What sorcery is this?

Scuba Diver Cerys Hearsey discovered the phone after noticing the iPhone glowing 30 feet below water. After finding the iPhone, she noticed it still had 84 per cent battery remaining and went through the contacts to find the owner of the phone. 

The owner turned out to be Rob Smith's cousin who dropped the phone two days earlier while kayaking in Dorset. The iPhone was dropped over the edge of the kayak and it was assumed that the iPhone was lost for good.

Cerys told the Mirror “I could see the phone sitting on the bottom of the seabed because it received a message and lit up,” she told the publication. “I picked it up and returned to land where I cut it out of its case as it was starting to get a bit of water inside. I then looked up the numbers and got in touch with the owner's family.”

She added, “Phones are so critical to life nowadays they can be difficult to replace.” 

The iPhone 7 has an IP 67 water resistance rating which allows the smartphone to be submerged under for 30 minutes at up to 1 meter of depth. What's surprising is that the iPhone 7 survived for two days underwater in ocean water and at a depth of 30 meters. All we can say is that waterproof case worked like magic and prevented the phone from getting destroyed.
