Not sure, is the battery waterproof? If I drop my phone in a sink of water, and it's IP68 rated, would this mean I need to replace my battery immediately?

It's not hard to make a waterproof battery and a waterproof phone. All you need to waterproof using gaskets is the connector between both of them.
