IP Details (quick decode)
IPX7 means immersion up to 1m for 30 minutes; IP67 adds dust protection. Both are fine for steam and splashes. Keep ports/flaps closed during use.
Mounting: suction vs. clip vs. strap
Suction cups are convenient on smooth tile/glass but need a clean, flat surface. Clips/straps are more universal (caddies, bars, hooks) and tend to last longer.
Controls you can hit blind
Big, raised buttons for volume/track are worth it. Touch panels are fussy with water droplets.
Charging & care
USB-C is simplest. Dry the port before charging. If a flap exists, close it fully; rinse off soap film and pat dry to avoid sticky buttons.
FAQ
Q: Is IPX7 safe for showers?
A: Yes — IPX7/IP67 handles splashes and steam. Still avoid directing high-pressure spray into ports and keep charging flaps closed.
Q: Why do suction cups fall?
A: Soap film or textured tile breaks the seal. Clean both surfaces, press firmly, and re-seat periodically. Clips/straps are the most reliable.
Q: Can I take calls in the shower?
A: Many puck speakers have mics, but echo and water noise can be high. For privacy and quality, most people mute calls until you're out.
Q: Will Bluetooth cut out through walls?
A: Bathrooms weaken signals. Keep the phone nearby or outside the curtain on a dry shelf; avoid multiple walls between.
