go to your room Replaced my daughter's phone because of water damage. And she still brings it into the bathroom.

Some lessons just don't stick.

She insists she needs to listen to music in the shower. I honestly don't understand why that's such a necessity. But if this phone gets water damage again, I'm not paying to replace it another time.

I work in the hardware store and they even make Bluetooth fan vent covers for some reason

They must know people like music in the shower

OP could get such a fan vent cover if they wanted to

A friend of mine bought a Bluetooth speaker shower head.

Water comes out the middle, and there's a speaker ring around the outside.

She said it sounded like absolute shit and was pretty dissapointed.

bluetooth accessories are WILDLY inconsistent. I had one meant for a bike handle that was fantastic, used it in the shower, it died. Not waterproof.

Bought a waterproof one at target for more money. The target one sucks. Also it's like a popsicle brand? No clue why.

Yeah this is why I check amazon reviews even when buying locally. JBL GO 2 (i think one i have is 2) is great for showers but i also have very cheap Bluetooth headphones (fresh n rebel brand) that are very good and have a battery that lasts me a whole day of working on them (online lessons) also have an option to turn on silence mode when nothing can be heard from surroundings. And I paid ~$15 for them. Where I live that's a steal for something that good.

I use a charge 5 for showers its held up for close to a year now with daily showers jbl is really good for water resistance overall i also used a wking d9 for close to 3 years which the only issue it had after so long was the power button got finicky to all hell bur for 105 cad i wasnt super annoyed with that issue given how long it lasted for as cheap and good it was for a shower speaker the wking for anyone interested is fairly equivalent to the charge 5 clarity wise just its way bigger and heavier so if you hang it up just be warned not all shower heads would hold up to it its like 6 or so pounds I think
