High frequency PCB factory take a test for Apple's iPhone 12, we dunked Apple's iPhone 12 in the chilly, deep waters of Lake Tahoe to find out what would happen.

Apple's iPhone 12 is water-resistant, so it should be totally fine if you accidentally drop it in the pool or it gets splashed with liquid. The iPhone 12's IP68 rating means it can survive up to 19.6 feet (six meters) of water for 30 minutes. But how deep can you really take this phone? We took a brand-new iPhone 12 for a swim in the frigid fresh water of Lake Tahoe, California, to find out. Turns out that like its predecessor, Apple's newest iPhone can handle a great deal more than its official rating.

To test out the water resistance, we teamed up with Mission Robotics to mount our iPhone 12 on the company's underwater drone, Theseus. The drone can go as deep as 984 feet (300 meters) underwater; the pilot can see the view from Theseus' camera, as well as monitoring depth and water temperature metrics from a computer on shore.

Although High frequency PCB factory only tested the regular iPhone 12, Apple's IP68 water resistance rating applies to all four iPhone 12 models: the iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Mini, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max. Watch the video on this page for the full test and to see some amazing underwater footage from the drone.
