The iPhone 15 is one of the top phones out right now, and it has pretty solid built quality and resistance to typical use. Like many modern phones, it's designed with a water resistance rating -- but that doesn't mean it can survive being full submerged in your pool. An Ingress Protection (IP) code will tell you about a phone's water and particle resistance, making it easier to compare different models. So, what does this all mean for the iPhone 15 series?
Are the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus waterproof?
Like their predecessors, the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus have an IP rating of IP68. The digits in this rating indicate the device's resistance to solid particles and liquids. The first number represents the phone's solid particle resistance on a scale of zero to six. The second number rates its liquid resistance from zero to nine. These ratings show that the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are highly resistant to solids and liquids.
