> Lol no, that's not how the burden of proof works.
Read their study and find a flaw. Repeat their experiment and prove it’s wrong.
Informally, they’re in the lead until/unless someone proves otherwise.

I know and I addressed that. Read my comment properly.

Lol no, that's not how the burden of proof works. If you're going to come in here and say that "the science" says not to stick your phone in rice, you have to back that up with actual evidence. A white paper from a company with a vested interest in convincing people that the rice method doesn't work is not "science." It's a conflict of interest and that alone is enough to doubt its accuracy.
Someone with a username like yours should know the difference between actual studies and white papers with a motive.

That’s the study. If you disagree, refute it.

I mean, this is a white paper from a company that wants to sell you a service to dry out your phone and has a real interest in getting people to stop believing the rice myth. Maybe better than an SEO post that doesn’t cite any sources, but not exactly “the science.”

I'm also using both and both have their pluses and minuses. It's not a matter of which is better than the other, more of which OS you prefer to use.

That doesn’t mean it works when you put wet electronics in it.
Did the link I post not work?

Nope. Put it in distilled water

Rice doesn’t help. Distilled water does

Rice scientifically absorbs water/moisture

Just like Chevy and Ford with gear heads. It doesn’t really matter to most people what you use, but there will be jokes from insecure people who use something else.

There’s a study including.
- Summary
- Experiment Design
- Water Ingress
- Methodology

A lot of my experience, and the experience of certain online creators is that Apple create the idea that their devices are "premium" and Android is more or less for "peasants".
My teenage daughter was incessantly berated for having an Android (specifically Samsung in this case) by her iPhone wielding peer group. Even at work when I brought up the idea of moving to iPhone after 13 years on Android, it was the Apple users telling me how wrong I was for "waiting so long" and now I would finally "understand how amazing Apple is".
I am aware that in the USA where WhatsApp is not used as much, Apple make text messages from Android phones painful to read which causes a lot of tension between the groups.
I'm not saying that it doesn't work the other way round, just that there is precedent. Now that I'm using an iPhone I really don't get the fervor around them. A phone is a phone at the end of the day and I don't really care.
But there are no innocent sides in fan wars.

This is just a bog standard SEO article that doesn’t cite anything for its claims that rice doesn’t help. The only links in the article are to other articles from this website.
So, in this case, The Family Handyman says don’t - we unfortunately don’t know what the science says because they didn’t show their work.
(The arguments against it do make sense, though. I’m just using this to soapbox about how you shouldn’t trust SEO articles like this that don’t cite their sources)

Nope. Tons of aftermarket parts out there and that’s besides the point. I mean the software is all Apple looks at when it comes to this. You could buy new phones, swap the screens in their store and they’ll tell you your screen is now a fake.
