Why Do Some Phones Work Better Underwater Than Others?

Imagine your phone is like a sponge. If it's a good sponge, it can soak up water and still work. But if it's a weak sponge, the water soaks through and makes everything messy inside. Some phones are better at keeping water out because they have stronger materials that act like a thick, strong sponge.
