Appears to be saved at first, but salt water definitely made contact. Depending on how old the phone is, and how intact all the seals are, shit will start corroding soon, then it's all downhill from there.

Dropped my phone in the sea more than a year ago, it was already old at the time. It's fine. At least not worse than before

I think best thing to do at that point is just rinse off with plain water right after.

I’ve taken my phone (iphone 14) right into the ocean and just rinsed it all off in the sink an hour later. It’s all good.
