While I'm in the shower, I like to listen to music from my laptop. Is it safe to bring it in there without it being fried?

I wouldn't take a steaming hot shower while you have your laptop inside due to the condensation.

I wouldn't. Most electronic devices have a humidity rating, and since the humidity in a bathroom w/ a shower running is pretty much 100%, you'd be risking corrosion of the battery contacts / other components. Not only that, but moisture can seep into the case and form water droplets which would be a no no.


My advice: get some wireless speakers / tough out the 10 minutes without music.

Yeah I would say no, unless you don't take a steaming hot shower. The condensation will get to the laptop and might fry it.

Depends on how your shower is, steamy showers can cause condensation which would of course slowly fry your laptop over a slight amount of time, I would recommend opening the window while you shower, have the laptop by the window.
