They said the phone can go one and a half meter under water. I tried to use the phone in the pool just for taking photos The screen stopes working. the mic and the speaker sounds was so bad for the whole day. Is this normal?

Maybe the speaker is not waterproof try putting the media volume to full and then play music with Bass Boosted Version!

I could t use the phone for several hours. I did a call I could t here them and they couldn't understand what I said. Buying this phone was bad decision.

Absolutely normal, just keep it in warm place like outdoor for 40 to 50 min and then every thing will back to normal.

Always check the rating of devices before using devices in water (IP68). 

Feel free to bring the device to a Samsung Service Center to have it checked out for any water damage.

Not so much a reply, but more of a question, my boyfriend was doing dishes at work and his s21 ultra accidentally fell in the wash water.  Now his phone won't charge and keeps saying there's moisture in the charging port and we have gotten it pretty much dried out any suggestions

So, my S21 Ultra fell out of my pocket on a water ride at an amusement park.  It remained submerged in fast moving circulating water for 20 hours until staff found it the next morning.

The phone still works.  

I'm in the process of drying it out, but did not get the moisture warning when I plugged it in to charge (as a test).  Speaker works (though still dripping water.  Mic worked well enough for Bixby to know what I was saying.

I'll update this if anything changes.  But I might be a Samsung fan for life if this phone survives.
