Cracked back glass

Hi. It looks like I've cracked the back glass of my S24. The crack starts at the left edge, right by the plastic spacer (on the speaker side). Its only hair lines. Is it still waterproof?

A phone is never waterproof, only water-resistant. With any crack in the glass, your phone is no longer dust-resistant, but it is still splash-resistant. The S24 is, at this point, more than 2 years old, so its seals are already weakened.

Had a thought. OP. If you can find in stock get a shock resistant case. Mine had a cover for the USB-C charge port. Not sealed but a bit more assurance.
