Other than stay dry how do you protect from water damage? Plus PSA...

[Windows Central Question]

Not much of a seal around the edges. I used the phone after leaving the gym.

Now it just reboots after the MS logo in a loop.

Moisture got right in and damned if it didn't streak to the water damage strip on the battery.

As a note: there is a water damage strip on the top of inside the battery compartment and one on the bottom edge of the battery. In hind sight I should have covered those up with a strip od rubber (wide rubber band) so I could have made a warranty exchange instead of insurance claim.

Pro tip...turn off the phone and let it sit idle so it could dry off on its own in a couple of hours. If you can't wait that long then put it underneath a light bulb (and turn the light bulb ON) so the heat dissipated can help dry off the sweat. Make sure the heat is not damaging your phone's display assembly.
