Good question. I imagine they could still make the internals of the phone waterproof. Getting your phone wet might destroy the battery but not the expensive phone. If they can make waterproof phones with USB-C ports which provide power then they should be able to make waterproof phones with a hidden "port" for the battery under a cover.
