Maybe a stupid question...
But how waterproof is the 3.5mm headset jack bus on top of the Xperia Z1?
I can see the contacts if i look in the jack bus. What if a waterdrop will fall in the jackbus, will it give a shortcut?
Do i need a rubber 3.5mm jack dummy to cover it?
By the way, i order the magnetic usb charging cable for Xperia Z1, and use andftp to transfer files over wifi/ftp..
So that i don't need to open the bus covers of the Z1.
@Jeroensky - The headphone jack has the same IP rating as the rest of the device but may not perform well if it is wet and you connect headphones so I would advise ensuring the jack is dry before connecting a headset.

I already ordered a '3.5mm jack dust cover'. (the one for iphone is nice flat) Just to prevent that a raindrop for example fall in, and besides i use bluetooth stereo headset for audio/mic/control.
You have lots of those things in funny ways.
I only want to keep it clean (jack plug cover cap), and don't want to have the risk on breaking the bus covers (when you use a case around your phone it's difficult to open them) so i bought a magnetic charging cable.
It's up to a user him/her selve to do so, i like the idea that i don't need to do any mechanical thing on my phone to use it the next years. I like to have some durability.
And besides, if you can effort such a expensive smartphone, then the few extra money is no problem at all.
