Apple groans as EU proposes single-type charging port for all Devices

Apple may be paying the sum of 10 million Euros to Italy’s antitrust regulators over some claims that the iPhone is water-proof. 

The latest iPhone had been advertised to be water resistance for as long as 30 minutes and up to 4 metres in depths, the conditions, however, only holds true under specific tests. 

However, customers were in for a surprise when the high-end phones did not hold out as earlier advertised, in addition, the technology company refused to fix the phones with liquid-related damages. 

Apple’s website, however, reads that the phones are splash, water, or dust resistant. Apple is yet to respond regarding the matter.
