Is the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 waterproof?

The Z Flip 6 gets an IP48 rating, and that's significant.

That means the device can be safely submerged in 1.5 meters of water for up to 30 minutes without any issues, and as it now has dust ingress as well, it is safeguarded against any solid objects greater than 1mm in diameter. This isn't something you need to worry about right away, but if you consistently use your device in a situation where it comes into contact with water, I'd recommend taking it to a Samsung service center after about a year of use to see how the ingress protection is holding up. An ingress rating of 8 — as is the case with the Z Flip 6 — basically denotes that the device is fully safeguarded against liquids, and when it comes to solids, the foldable is able to resist particles greater than 1mm in diameter.
