    I hope this loophole only applies for waterproof devices that keep their warranty if they have water damage. The current system for all(?) IP68 devices is that water damage can be detected with liquid damage indicators and is seen as an accident. Accidents aren’t covered by warranty so waterproofness of a device means … nothing. As a side note, a Pixel 7 pro isn’t waterproof.

      Thanks for the heads up on the pixel 7, I’m planning on buying one in the next few months
