With things like rain, deserts and humidity existing, any phone should be IP64 at least, so it’s paranoid to expect it to fail near a bath. Meanwhile many modern phones are IP67, meaning you can literally put them under water.
So who’s the idiot here, the person using a device within its specifications so they can have more fun, or someone still stuck in the 00s ?
My grandson has taken multiple of my phones for a bath, they all said waterproof. Guess why I said multiple phones. Well, some he broke by smashing them.
Fun times!
Problem with the waterproof rating with phones is they heat up, or overheat, one day and bam, no more waterproofing. I definitely wouldn’t recommend pushing it.
Hey, old habits die hard. Back in my day if you sneezed on a phone it would die, a sticker would turn pink, and you were out 600 bucks!
IDK if I’ll ever take my (IP67?) rated phone in the water with me.
