iPhone XS water damage.

I have an iPhone XS that was submerged in water for less than a minute, about 2 feet deep, and the phone is displaying significant water damage. The TrueDepth camera is disabled and the display has been malfunctioning. Disappointing because this exposure seems within the water resistance standard. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Buy a new phone.

Water damage is not covered by any warranty.

Water resistance degrades over time. Apple advises you don't submerge your phone in water.
