My Apple iPhone is sauna-proof!
Here is a picture I took live from the sauna. I have been sat listening to my music whilst I try and rid myself of my cold. I wasn’t sure if anyone would believe me so I snapped a photo - and decided to blog it right away.
I kept the device wrapped in a towel (pictured) to keep it away from the direct heat.
I wonder how an over-heated iPhone would manifest itself? By melting? Or by becoming very slow? The device itself is quite warm - but no more than if it had been on constant use for a while.
Note: I don’t recommend you doing this with your iPhone.
isn’t water (steam in your case) what could really damage your phone after a while?

How the other half live
iPhones in the sauna? I took a dirty train to Essex today to meet a client in a grey 1960’s office block…

I may, however, be barking up the wrong tree…. speaking of barking… YOU TOOK YOUR IPHONE INTO THE SAUANA?!?!?!
