Is the iPhone 7 Plus waterproof? Can Apple 7 be rinsed with water?

Apple claims that the new 7th generation is waterproof, and some users choose to rinse the surface after buying the Apple 7. It may not be a problem to do it once or twice, but if you do it too many times, you will get caught. Usually, it causes the HOME button to malfunction, but it usually works fine after 2 days, so there's nothing to worry about. However, if it doesn't work even after a few days, it's because it's broken. If you have an Apple Handheld Service AC, you don't have to worry about directly replacing it with a new one.

User case:

I didn't know last time, but during the disassembly inspection, no water was found, so I just replaced it with a new one. Today, my luck wasn't so good. I just came back from direct sales and bought a new 628 phone. They took a photo of it all covered in water and showed it to me, so I had to spend money to buy a new phone.
 
In summary, if you don't wash it in the future, this waterproofing is really unreliable and depends on luck. Many people can wash it no matter how hard they try, and I have been washing it for two months without any problems. But it hung up yesterday. Mainly, water has entered the bottom area. So the vibration failure is likely due to water ingress. It's just strange why all the functions are normal, it's just that the vibration is broken. I guess there should be another waterproof layer on the motherboard.
