I have total faith in the IP68 rating. I'll be comfortable using it out in the rain, but I'm not going to purposely dunk it in a pool.

As per this video .. Galaxy S7 gets unboxed underwater by T-Mobile - Android Authority ... I quited liked the idea of taking on holiday and taking pics in the pool, but just not sure I would be brave enough

That was pretty cool, but RIP charging cable. Haha. If you do bring it in water while on holiday, make sure you stay in the shallow end of the pool and I wouldn't advise putting it in salt water.

Chlorine/Bromine is not good for seals, as it will eventually eat away at the rubber. Sure if you drop it in by accident you'll be ok, but I wouldn't want to just start a new underwater photography hobby in your pool with your S7.

Haha yeah I'll be using it in the shower and a few times in the pool but I will probably still just hold the phone above water because it's nervous keeping it under water.

The screen won't work properly when wet so it is not really operational when wet.

Re: Who's brave enough
I had the S6 Active which is also ip68 and I used it for dozens of hours at depths up to 8 feet taking thousands of videos and photos. I am sure this phone would handle the same. They included a photo mode called "aqua" which removes the inputs from the screen and lets you use the physical buttons for controlling the camera. it'd be nice if this retained that feature...
