Reports are that the new iPhone, the iPhone 7 will, in fact, be waterproof.

This is a beautiful thing if you, like us, have managed to drop at least one phone down the jacks.

The latest handset, the iPhone 6S and the plus model, were 'virtually' waterproof. With rumours that Apple had secretly implemented the technical measure as a test before sounding off about it as a viable feature.

The new blower will apparently have a bigger screen, with the home button getting the bullet - in the biggest design reshuffle since Steve Jobs passed away.

It could also have a USB port, dual rear cameras with optical zoom and fingerprint recognition on the main display.
