I understand my 3 year old iPhone XS is IP68 rated (30 minutes at 2 meters) in terms of water resistance. It recently got damp for a few hours in my pocket whilst out cycling and on my return home my iPhone advised that “a problem was detected with the TrueDepth camera. Face ID has been disabled”. From my research it appears that this may be a water ingress issue, which is surprising as my iPhone has certainly experienced wetter conditions than that of the other day. So, my question is does the waterproofing of the iPhone degrade over time?
As a side note I’ve just taken delivery of an iPhone 13 as I find the loss of Face ID a PITA
