There's half an argument to be made about waterproofing, but it kinda falls flat when the waterproofing we get isn't that good.
"This phone is IP68 rated!"
Oh cool, so I can go swimming with it and take it into the shower?
"Haha, no."
Great, so glad we gave up a ton of features for this.
Don't let yourself be gaslit by anti right to repair and apple propaganda. We had a smartphone with removable battery and headphone jack that you could swim with, it has been done. The water resistance argument does not hold water, at all.
That and headphone jacks were able to be made waterproof pretty easily too. It does introduce a new area for potential incursion, but it’s pretty minimal for the vast majority of users.
