Apple also used to say don’t use any cleaners on the screen, it will damage the phone. Then COVID hit and they admitted that yeah, you can use cleaner on the screen…

They claim the phone is IP 68, so water shouldn't get in at all even if it is immersed. Even the older were ones were claimed to be IP 67, which should be good for 1m immersion.

Is time a factor? So, if you drop it in the toilet and forget about it for an hour...

Yes, the IP X8 rating covers immersion for a specified time, which can vary. I think the phone ratings are for 30 minutes.
