Is the Samsung Galaxy S23 waterproof?

The Samsung Galaxy S23 series consists of three different models: the regular S23, the S23+ and the S23 Ultra. Just like its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy S23 series is waterproof. But do watch
out; there are a few things to keep in mind before you let it come into contact with water. Exactly how waterproof the Samsung Galaxy S23 is, we explain below.
Watch out at the beach and with salt water
We recommend paying close attention at the beach and in the sea. The beach is full of sand, after all. That sand can get lodged in your phone, leaving certain ports unusable. If you take the phone into the sea, rinse everything off thoroughly afterwards. Salt water can dry up, leaving the salt behind inside your phone. That salt can then cause damage to your smartphone.
Better safe than sorry: get a waterproof phone case
The IP68 certification only says something about dust and water resistance, not about drop and impact protection. Waterproof phone cases are available for the Samsung Galaxy S23, S23+ and S23 Ultra. That way your phone can also take a knock. All ports are protected by a cover. Every model has its own dimensions, so it is important to order a case made for your specific model.
Conclusion: the Samsung Galaxy S23 is waterproof up to a point
In short, you can let the Samsung Galaxy S23 come into contact with water without worrying. But do not push the limits. Do not expect to take it on a dive in salty seawater without extra protection. If you are in doubt whether the phone will keep working in certain conditions, we have one simple piece of advice: do not try it. A rain shower or the S23 accidentally falling into the toilet is something the device should survive.
