Yes—the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is IP68 rated, which is impressive for a phone this thin.

IP68 is the same water resistance rating you'll find on the S25 Ultra and most flagship phones. It means the phone can handle submersion in fresh water up to 1.5 meters deep for 30 minutes. More practically, it means you don't need to panic if you drop it in a sink, get caught in rain, or spill coffee on it.

Things you can do without worry:

• Use it in the rain
• Rinse it off if it gets dirty
• Take it to the beach (but keep it out of the ocean—see below)
• Photograph near waterfalls, pools, and other splash zones

Things you should still avoid:

• The ocean. Saltwater is corrosive and will damage the phone even with IP68 rating.
• Swimming pools and hot tubs. Chlorine chemicals can degrade the seals.
• Taking it in the shower. Water pressure from the shower head can force water past the seals.
• Leaving it underwater. The rating is for accidents, not intentional submersion.

A note about warranty:

Here's something most people don't realize: water damage usually isn't covered by warranty, even with an IP68 phone. The rating means the phone should survive water exposure, but if it doesn't, that's not Samsung's problem. So don't test the limits deliberately.

Also, always make sure the USB-C port is completely dry before plugging in a charger. Water and electricity don't mix, and charging with a wet port can damage the phone permanently.
