Is the Apple Watch safe to go into a burning building with?

Don't buy an Apple Watch if you intend to take it into a burning building, period. Buy something cheap and easily replaceable instead. You’re talking about an investment of several hundred dollars . Why would you wear it while you are performing your firefighting duties? If it did, by chance, get damaged the warranty would not cover it anyway.

You would be well past the recommended temperatures for the device.

I would check with the rep who handles your protective gear and see what they say, it is quite likely they have been asked this question. Keep in mind there is a lithium polymer battery that does not deal well with heat and could harm you if it overheated.

My biggest thing is that I am not going to be in burning buildings 100% of the time, but the times that I am I wanted to know if it would be safe, I would obviously have a case on it and everything but wanted to upgrade to something that would integrate better with my phone than a fit bit.

Well, it looks like you have already made the decision to buy one and just want confirmation from us. We can’t give you that. You are on your own.

Computers and fires don’t get along. It’s completely up to you as to weather you think it’d be safe or not.
