Hi Kaiden208,


heres the apple support document detailing splash, water, and dust resistance of iPhone 7 and later - Apple Support. The iPhone 12 have a rating of IP68 under IEC standard 60529 (maximum depth of 6 meters up to 30 minutes).


Hope it helps,

Charles

No. Your iPhone 12 is not waterproof. See below for the exact wording related to iPhone 12 specifications.

Phone 12 is splash, water, and dust resistant and were tested under controlled laboratory conditions with a rating of IP68 under IEC standard 60529 (maximum depth of 6 meters up to 30 minutes). Splash, water, and dust resistance are not permanent conditions and resistance might decrease as a result of normal wear. Do not attempt to charge a wet iPhone; refer to the user guide for cleaning and drying instructions. Liquid damage not covered under warranty.
