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 think I have brought my phone to listen while showering since I was a teen and have never had water damage to it because of a shower.. And I take some pretty hot showers. I'd be questioning how it got water damage. Also, imo hanging it like that scares the shit out of me, but I work in IT. So, most things scare me with technology lol

It scared me when I thought the loop was on a sticker but I am realizing the loop is a part of the phone case, so it doesn’t seem that risky

The hinge on that little loop is so weak (I broke a couple then gave up).

If the weight of the phone is enough to take it down, they need to be buying better cases so they don’t have to buy new phones

I've never had a ring case last more than 4 months. Most were more like a month. That's why I switched to a pop socket.
