dropped my i phone SE in water?
so I dropped my brand new (14 days old) iphone SE in water about 5 hours ago . I was completely sumerged for at least 10 seconds. It was turned on in sleep mode and the first thing I stupidly did was use my fingerprint to unlock and see if it still worked. It did for a few seconds and I sighed relief until the screen went wonky and then completely black. I tried to dry it off with a towel and took the case off. I tried to then power it down but hard to do with a black screen.
I then put it in a bag of rice and left it for a few hours until I read that was not the best course of action.
so I took it out and gave a shake, some water did come out. I took out the sim card and it was dry (thankfuly).
Now it is sitting on a towel air drying where I will leave it for a couple of days.
So what are my chances of survial, be honest ... yet kind. Brand new phone with no warranty.
Thanks

Play taps for it and get another one.
It should have been left Undisturbed in the rice for a Full Week.

just place your phone in some rice (on the back) and put more rice onto OR put cotton balls onto of the phone screen so it can absorb the water fast. IF you go with the cotton ball method, then put rice over everything. Tell both method sit around 12 hrs or so or till it turns on. WHEN you turn it on, hold the lock button and the home button down and hold it for 20 sec OR until it turns on. GOOD LUCK
