Sorry if that was weirdly obscure. I was asking because the principal reason I go out of my way to avoid rain is that I’m worried my phone would get wet and potentially die (and I’ve been somewhat sad about having to forego the experience of braving the rain at points). But it’s possible that this is not a big issue with current devices (and maybe never was)!
it is definitely not a problem with current devices. my phone has gotten quite wet hundreds of times and still works perfectly fine. note that this is different from survivability fully submerged; my guess is your phone could probably survive being submerged for a few minutes in a pool or something but if you left it there for a day it would be dead.
