Apple's patent application reveals focus on an iPhone that won't scratch or bend
The three new iPhone models unveiled by Apple last Wednesday each carry an IP68 rating allowing them to be submerged in water as deep as nearly 5-feet for as long as 30 minutes. In addition, Apple says that the glass used on the devices is the most durable glass ever used on a smartphone. That might be enough to satisfy iPhone owners for now, but Apple isn't standing still. A patent application filed with the USPTO in March, 2017 reveals that the company is working on an abrasion-resistant finish that can protect the device from dents and scratches.
