| Video Discription | #technology #iPhone #Apple #Italy Apple fined $10M because water is wet in different ways. iPhone water resistance vs marketing promises: Italy says no Apple is in hot water with Italy’s competition authority, which fined the company €10M ($12M) over iPhone water-resistance claims. What’s interesting here is that Italy’s AGCM, in a report only in Italian but likely to be officially translated in the coming days, intends to fine Apple for concerns over water-resistance marketing, and warranty. All iPhone models since October 2017, including the iPhone 8 through to the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro models, are included in the report. Apple has 60 days to appeal. (In case you were concerned: According to the report, Apple’s Italian business between September 2018 and September 2019, recorded revenues of €58,652,628; and an operating profit of €26,918,658. So, Apple Italy should survive!) The machine-translated AGCM report says two commercial practices were unfair: First, “the characteristic of being water resistant for a maximum depth varying between 4 meters and 1 meter depending on the model and up to 30 minutes,” which is part of Apple’s marketing. So, in short: 1. Water-resistance tests in labs in perfect conditions using pure water do not mimic real-world performance or usage. 2. And, despite the marketing of water-resistance in many recent iPhones, Apple won’t help if a new iPhone suffers water damage, noting it’s not waterproof. 3. Apple has also has used water damage indicators for years. Apple’s not alone: 1. Specifically on water resistance problems, the same sort of case against Samsung was made in Australia about a year ago (ACCC), and that case went on for more than a year at minimum. I can’t find a resolution to that case either, so maybe it’s continuing. 2. And while Italy’s regulator made its case against Apple this time around, it had fined both Apple and Samsung $15M two years ago for forced updates that may slow or make devices unusable. ............THANKS FOR WATCHING...............
