Is the iPhone 15 really water resistant for snorkeling?

I have an IPhone 15 and plan on going on vacation. I know it is water resistant for about 30 minutes. I guess the question I am asking is would it be ok snorkeling?🤿

Those tests are done under extremely controlled conditions. Purified water in a container with no motion. A brand new phone with perfectly new seals. And very carefully placed into the water chamber flat (as if you were setting it on a table).


If you read the warranty information for the phone, submerging it in any way voids the warranty.
