Could we have a modicum of skepticism in repeating press releases?

>Thanks to this new design, the iPhone X is sealed for water and dust resistance.

So the iPhone 7, which does not use this design, was not water and dust resistant? I know this is a meta point, but it's annoying. Apple can say whatever they like in their releases, but it would be nice to have people familiar with the domain do a smell test on the content.




I don't think they said that it wasn't.


I think he's saying that because the iPhone 7 was also water resistant, it cannot be that the new one is so due to the new design, given the old one allowed for it too.
