iPhone 5S: Apple’s Newest Patents Tell Us ‘S’ is for Security

Waterproof iPhone 5S

Waterproof iPhone 5S

A secure iPhone isn't just about fingerprint readers and facial recognition  it's also about keeping the user's data secure and safe.

It's a longshot, but Apple could choose to use technology from a 2012 patent to deliver a waterproof iPhone 5S, or more likely the company could partner with one of the companies licensing waterproof nano coating for smartphones.

Liquipel offers a third-party treatment that protects the iPhone 5 from water damage, even from being completely submerged in a pool or a puddle.

We've also seen waterproofing on the iPhone, like in the video above, though Apple has yet to deliver an iPhone with waterproof features.

If Apple can offer a waterproof iPhone 5S, users could worry less about losing their data and photos while carrying the iPhone.

    Apple needs to concentrate on screen size to match Samsung and the Galaxy S line. we’re tired of this little phone.

    Why doesn’t Apple come out with an update to Passcode lock that doesn’t allow a person to switch the device off while Passcode lock is enabled ?
    That way if the device is stolen and you have your mobile data activated, which most of us have, you can still track the device using FindMyiPhone.
