I hate being without a phone. I got it out the pan really fast too and the screen just gradually faded to fuck all

That's not to say it can't just start working again but it's much less likely.
Constant risk of what? Presumably you mean there's always a current running through the phone for the clock or whatever.

Not just that, a wet phone behaves eratically and may just decide to turn itself on causing more damage.

Now people are criticising it because it can't withstand being dropped in a toilet. Amazing
