Although a waterproof [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iphone-vision) is wished for by so many users, the iPhone Essence might be the closest we get to seeing one created (for now). The conceptual smartphone design by Herman Haidin sees the [Apple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iphone-14-ultra-concept) device measuring in at just 3mm in thickness with a 5-inch front display.

The internal components of the iPhone Essence feature a liquid metal cooling infrastructure to help enable the device to run powerfully without worries of overheating. The nano pixel cameras on the iPhone Essence would enable the device to analyze surroundings to fine-tune the camera accordingly. Naturally, the [waterproof iPhone Essence](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vivo-y31d) is totally wireless with no ports at all in sight.

As a demand for customization in the technology market increases, users are taking matters into their own hands as seen with the iPhone Essence to create products that are more attuned to their lifestyle.
