It's your device, you should be able to repair it

How do you use your phone in the rain? Whenever I try, I find it's pretty much impossible, because the screen gets all wet and slippery, I can hardly see anything on it because of distortion through individual drops of rain, and I get spurious clicks from raindrops falling onto it. So I have to shield it under an umbrella or something...

And if I have to do that anyway, the phone being less than 100% watertight because the battery is swappable won't be a problem in the first place.

I only use it in the rain to look up maps and see directions or to quickly see a message and you are right that the distortions from the rain can make it hard to see, though I haven't had the issue of a slippery phone.

Maybe I am just paranoid, but I would like to know my phone doesn't die on me when it is exposed to rain.
