Is the iPhone 8 Plus waterproof?

No iPhone is fully waterproof. The iPhone 8 Plus is rated IP67 (up to 1 metre for 30 minutes) under laboratory conditions when new. Seals age over time, so a pre-owned phone should be treated as splash-resistant only, and liquid damage is not covered by warranty.

Which charger does the iPhone 8 Plus use?

The iPhone 8 Plus charges through a Lightning port (the older Apple connector). It supports Qi wireless charging. See iPhone chargers, cases and screen protectors.
