This is (as I'm sure you know) an unofficial Devialet forum, so I'm not sure Devialet consistently monitor it, or at all.
In saying that; the current Phantoms are not weatherproof, but they are to a certain small extent resistant to water. But I would NEVER want to come close to testing that out. But the sheer design and materials the Phantom consists of ( as well as the sealed enclosure) creates quite a sturdy little unit. You would have a hard time having anything get inside the unit, or even damaging it from being outside 24/7, but you'd want to be careful about getting the front tweeter wet. It will still work fine, but being the most exposed area of Phantom I would just be careful.
Phantom is designed to be used in almost all household locations, including outside. You could purchase a Phantom with a Gecko and use that to mount it up on a wall or roof high off the ground for use outside.
In terms of being portable, that is not the intended use case of Phantom, and while possible, you'll have a hard time giving it consistent power.
