Boy do I have a phone for you!
Fairphone.com
I'm not sure the fairphone is even waterproof. Plus for what it offers it is way more costly than it needs to be. 20W charging, 3904 mAh battery, and for some reason no headphone jack.
Plus I'm American and I don't think they even sell the thing over here but for nearly $700 it'd have to be a very convincing phone for anyone who isn't thinking "I will fight climate change and ewaste by buying a phone" because you can buy a pixel 7a for $450 currently.
This solves both of your problems and means you have to buy a third as many phones.
