Plenty of us prop the phone on the sink or the edge of the bath for a podcast, then spend the whole shower worrying about splashes. The clip doing the rounds on Reddit shows a sealed phone case being held right under a running tap, then clipped to the bathroom wall while the music carries on and the screen still works through the cover.
What Makes It Stand Out
The closest well-reviewed Amazon UK match is the Lamicall waterproof shower phone holder. Your phone sits inside a gasket-sealed case with an anti-fog touch-through front, and the case hangs on a bracket that swivels between portrait and landscape and pulls out from the wall. It comes with three adhesive wall hooks, so you can put one in the shower, one by the bath and one in the kitchen, with no drilling. It fits phones up to about 7 inches and is sold in white and black.

Real Talk
UK buyers say it genuinely keeps the phone dry and the adhesive holds well on tiles. The honest downsides: when the cover is wet you have to press quite firmly to register a tap, some say the very bottom of the screen (the swipe-up bar) is hard to use, and you cannot reach the side buttons. Sound is a little muffled, and the adhesive is strong enough that one buyer cracked the case prising it off when they moved. It is splash-proof, not for dunking in the bath. The case in the clip is a black version with a speaker grille, so this is the same idea rather than the identical unit.
WORTH IT IF
- You listen to podcasts, music or the football in the shower
- You like watching something in the bath without risking your phone
- You want a fun stocking filler for a teenager
SKIP IF
- You want to type or scroll a lot while it is wet
- Your phone is in a bulky rugged case
- You rent and cannot use strong adhesive on the walls
