Taking a shower with Motorola Defy?

[Tech123]

I would not recommend it. Water resistant does not mean water proof.

If youre willing to go ahead just make sure there is insurance just incase because a lot of commercials are fake

This phone is advertised as "life proof". It's water resistant, dust resistant and shock resistant. Do you think it would be safe to take a shower with it?

 

[LubertPrice]

yes it's safe

Why would you want to? Don't get me wrong; I like gadgets too, but I can be away from my phone long enough to take a shower. Usually "water resistant" means it can handle a little rain but it's not meant to be totally soaked or immersed. As far as I know there's no such thing as a phone that you can take with you in a swimming pool or that sort of thing. It wouldn't be very practical anyway. You can't talk underwater unless you have a full-face diving mask with a microphone and transmitter built in. That's professional gear, not the sort of thing the average person needs.

I'd keep the phone out of the shower, the pool, or the bathtub. It's not worth the risk.

 

[JaneM]

[KaseyC]
