While Apple’s current-generation iPhones are water-resistant, you should not expect warranty coverage if your handset gets damaged if any liquid seeps inside to blow out the internal circuity. Unfortunately, the technology giant might not have provided those details entirely in its marketing material because Apple is now being sued in New York in an attempted class-action lawsuit.

The lawsuit was filed on Saturday in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, with Antoinette Smith listed as the plaintiff, according to details reported by AppleInsider. The class-action complaint states that Apple has overstated the water-resistive capabilities of its iPhones, mentioning that IP rating is ‘insufficiently qualified by fine print disclaimers.’
