My screen has a small scratch. Are there issues with waterproofing after screen repairs?

IF repaired past a samsung AUTHORIZED/CERTIFIED center, the h2o resistance should be equal, just consider that water resistant is non the same equally water proof, the notation eight is just water reistant as per IP68 standard

I read that water resistant is non on repaired phones past Samsung on here a person was complaining nearly his repair

I would be very cautious circular water if your device has had whatever hardware repairs done to it. Equally the h2o resistance protection may accept been weaken or completely damaged during the repairing process.

I would exist very cautious round water if your device has had whatever hardware repairs washed to it. As the water resistance protection may take been weaken or completely damaged during the repairing process.

Yes, but the really important fact around the water resistance is, that in the finish, Samsung DOES Not repair/substitution whatever device damaged by water in any instance, they build and test their devices according a strict IP68 standard, As they have no way to verify if a h2o damaged device was bailiwick to calumniating or harsher weather condition beyond those stated by IP68, they volition turn down warranty

And then, the wiser affair to do is, avoid getting your device moisture, splashed or submerged, even if never repaired before, it is water resistant, yes, but just in instance...
Only that is just my opinion

I've found that the IP68 rating is a formality as the devices internals are congenital to withstand 200 psi of water for very express fourth dimension. Included in my testing I went to the beach and used my phone in the ocean (speaker is non internally water proof and will get soaked or sand internally and will need to dry/ be cleaned out or replaced). Studying the internals of these phones the chief issue with waterproofing is the cleanliness and age of the O-rings also equally the quality of aftermarket screen/ adhesive. There is no reason why any repair shop that does a adept job would brand an originally water proof phone leak while using Samsung manufactured or supplied parts.
