No, moisture is bad for any phone to be in.

High heat. High humidity. Moisture. All bad for any cellphone.
Just take a moisture strip in with you and see what happens. it will be bright pink within seconds.
I sure wouldn't do it. That may be just enough humidity to turn the liquid detection sticker a color you never want to see ;)
That would void your warranty.
I doubt the heat will be an issue though, but the others for sure.Operating temperature for the discreet components is far in excess what a human being can survive.
Although I'm willing to try and prove that wrong, if I can get the results posted to YouTube I will. Just me and Bud Dwyer side by side in the hot box. :cool:
But the battery is a totally different issue... 92+ degrees = bad
thanks guys.. I only asked because my buddy takes his iphone in there and has not had a problem.. Anyways I'm ganna lisen to you guys and continue to leave my phone in my locker..
That's not good, he's taking serious risks that way.
I would not do it. NO WAY NO HOW DON'T!
Keep listening to his iPhone, don't risk your BB.
I'm an avid gym goer, and I make about 4-6 trips into the sauna each workout, and
nothing has ever happened to my cell phones in there. Been doing it for almost 6
years and not one bad phone.
BUT BUT BUT... you only stay in there for a few minutes at a time right?
Just want to clarify.
I've been in there for as long as 20 minutes. But on average, each of my
sauna visits are maybe 5-8 minutes.
I even take my iPhone in there with no problem.
@ the OP, you can certainly trust forever29, he knows his stuff.
That being said, I still wouldn't risk it just to be on the safe side.
you won't ever catch me in the sauna with mine lol
I leave it tucked away in my gym bag until I'm ready for my shower.
I don't even take mine into the bathroom when I itake a shower!!

maybe if you want a paperweight when youre done
What???? Really???? Moisture and electronics...oh yeah they go together like peanut butter and chocolate......um NO!!!!
If it ain't waterproof.....keep it away from moisture or liquid!!!
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
I had a Touch Diamond's moisture strip turn red from a hotel swimming pool room (it was an indoor poll) and it wasn't very warm in there, just very humid. No don't do it.
yes, if it's in a zip lock baggie.
I used to think a ziplock was a good and cheap option... until I saw how much moisture condenses INSIDE the ziplock. A Drybag or similar is really the only safe way to have your BB in damp environments.
Outside of the hypersenitive moisture strips how bad is humitity really? I do not know the answer but I mean really would being poolside really do damage? If so rim needs to protect it better this is a sauna not steamroom right?

Exactly. If it was a steam room then that's a big no-no. Can't take any
electric device in there. You for sure would ruin it. If you put the phone in a
Ziploc bag in the sauna it's going to produce moisture.
Again, I've been taking my cell phones in the sauna for years and haven't had
any problems.
