Meanwhile my Samsung has been dropped in the bath more times than I can count and gives zero fucks.

Maybe Apple just make bad phones?

There's so many reasons to hate on Apple and iPhones, but build quality simply isn't one of them.

iPhones are IP68, which means they can be immersed in serveral meters of water for up to 30 minutes.
