Samsung released a UV disinfection machine for smartphones and power bank, 1.2 million VND

In the era of technological development today, smartphones may have become the “object of separation” of each person, especially the young. However, with frequency of regular use, anytime, anywhere, this is accidentally a “residence” for millions of bacteria without your knowledge.

According to some scientific studies, the smartphone is one of the most likely to hold bacteria, even more dirty than the toilet in public toilets. Therefore, disinfecting smartphones to limit the spread of bacteria is an extremely necessary job, although not everyone has the habit of doing so.

Grasping consumer psychology, Samsung recently launched a smartphone sterilization model with UV light. This product is currently sold in Thailand for 1590 Baht (about 1.2 million), capable of killing up to 99% of bacteria on both sides of the phone in just 10 minutes.

Of course, you can also use it to disinfect other devices and items like headsets, smartwatches or masks. In the promotional image, Samsung even used the device to disinfect a pair of sunglasses.

Besides the main function of disinfecting smartphones, Samsung’s new sterilizer can also be used as a backup battery model with wireless charging capability. So, if your phone is about to run out of battery, you can place it inside the device to charge it during disinfection.

It uses a USB-C charging port and has a physical size of 22.8 x 12.8 x 4.9cm, fits both large smartphones such as Galaxy S20 Ultra, Galaxy Z Flip and Galaxy Fold – of course in a folded state. again.
