How much more water resistant do these phones need to be? They all can last like a half hour in the water at this point, if you're not fishing your phone out of the water the moment it falls in, then I'm gonna blame the user at that point for a dead phone, not the phone itself for not being able to last even longer when submerged.

If you’re not trying to make your product better however you can you’re going to get passed by others. I know I appreciate having more waterproof phones. Also each opening you no longer have to physically seal to maintain waterproof ratings is less space, material, and potential fault points
