iPhone spent 10 years in a working toilet and is still in pretty good condition

A resident of Maryland, USA, spoke about how she found her lost iPhone in 2012. Becky Beckmann pulled her iPhone out of the toilet ten years after it disappeared.

Despite trying to find the device, Beckmann was unable to figure out exactly what happened to her iPhone in 2012. In the end, she forgot about the phone and just bought a new one. But from the toilet in her apartment, an unusual sound was constantly heard when the water was flushed.

Beckmann's husband discovered that there really was a lost iPhone in the toilet that fell into it 10 years ago. Impressively, the iPhone has retained its generally recognizable features (looks like an iPhone 4), although the back cover has separated from the body. It's worth noting that iPhones only became waterproof in 2016, starting with the iPhone 7 series.

It is not yet clear whether this iPhone can be brought back to life. In the comments on Facebook, users' opinions are divided: some express surprise, others question the fact that the iPhone has been in the toilet for ten years.
