What makes you say that?

The Paperwhite 3 was priced at $120. The Paperwhite 4 added waterproofing and doubled the storage (4GB to 8GB) and it is priced at $129 (though regularly on sale for $100).

The Nook Glowlight was priced at $120. The Glowlight Plus added waterproofing and was priced at $130.

Both of those, I believe the $10 price increase had more to do with the market than the increased cost of waterproofing.
Interesting, I thought the price would be quite higher since it takes extra consideration with choice of material and how it's built
