    Problem is, it is not IP68 rated, which is a dealbreaker for someone with an active lifestyle; especially since I sometimes manage to get water even into my IP68 phones. It would be good if they made a Pro model or just made the regular model more expensive since I will gladly pay for privacy and quality on a device that is on me at all times. For now I will stick to my Pixel 9 Pro.

      There are those waterproof bag things. I wouldn’t trust the IP rating on a phone.

        Yeah no one should trust IP ratings on phones because unless they cover water damage in their warranty - which none do - the company doesn’t even trust their own IP rating.

        I always shake my head when I read about people taking their phones in the shower, in the pool, etc. IP ratings degrade over time as well.
