I hav an iphone 10, and if I wanted to replace the battery at the Apple store will the phone still be water resistant after the repair

Not asking if the warranty covers that but, if my I needed to replace something like a cracked screen, would it still be water resistant after the repair? Fixed at the Apple store and not a third party.

iPhone 12 Pro water damage after Apple Store battery replacement I bought my iPhone 12 Pro in Fall 2020. I used my phone near and around water and pools often without issue (as per advertised water resistance). I had the battery replaced at an Apple store in March of this year, less than 90 days ago. A few days ago I took my phone near water for the first time since the replacement and within hours it was on the way to its death. Reboot loop, screen failure, screen flashing, etc. Will Apple replace the phone for free since their battery replacement clearly caused the water resistance to fail?

iPhone 11 Water Damage Following Battery Replacement I recently got my apple iphone 11's battery replaced recently at a T-Mobile store directed to me by Apple itself. So this was an Apple approved store. When they did the replacement, the screen was not properly sealed. The screen was visibly lifted up as if something was preventing it from sealing all the way down. I did not realize this until i dropped the phone in 2 ft of water for less than 20 seconds. Apple claims that the Iphone 11 is water resistant up to 5 ft for 30 minutes. So the phone getting destroyed from this makes no sense. I took the phone to a repair shop called "UBreakiFix" and in their initial diagnosis they stated that the phone was NOT properly sealed when the battery was replaced by T-Mobile. They tried to fix the phone but in the end were not able to do so as the water damage was too extensive. The phone turns on and off and is in a constant reboot loop. What exactly can be done about this? Can I have T-mobile take responsibility for it?
