I've had a Fairphone 3 since its release, have cycled (& walked) in the rain plenty (I live in Ireland) and have not had a single issue of any kind. I've always presumed IP ratings were for more extreme water-related use than rain (accidental drop in puddle, momentary underwater snaps, etc.). I've never had water damage to any phone I've owned from rain, going back long before IP ratings were a thing.
