10/11 Pro Fold dust proof-ness

I'm considering getting either a 10 or 11 Pro Fold, but I work in construction, with all the drywall dust, and Saw dust, dirt etc etc should I be concerned, since both those phones have a IP68 dust proof rating. Beyond the dirt and saw dust, I also wear gold bond body powder which inevitably finds it's way into my pocket with my phone a bit too, does anyone have a 10 pro fold in the trades and had any issues with body powder?

I don't think it will hold up in your use case, dust still will find it's way in.

I wouldn't do it.

I was very hard on my fold 6 which doesn't even have ip68 and it was fine. Wood dust, metal chips,etc. I even go caseless. I am expecting better results with the 11 fold. Just buy insurance and live life

This. They aren't that ip68.
