Unsurprisingly, this new waterproof feature has already sparked a trend among those who have been lucky enough to get their hands on the phone — taking it into the shower. Whereas before, one would have to put their phone in a plastic bag to have any hope of it surviving the shower stream, the 7 can supposedly be taken under with zero protection and come out unharmed on the other side. Of course, people now can’t stop tweeting about the phenomenon — with many even tweeting from inside the shower.
