Samsung Unveils 99% Bacteria Killer Wireless Charger; Perfect Shield for COVID-19?

Did you know that mobile phones are proven to be seven times dirtier than toilet seats at home? That means every touch of your phones without you wiping sterilizers can get you nasty diseases amid a pandemic. Samsung, however, has a solution against this. A UV sterilizer and a 10W wireless charger in one device.

Can your chargers do this?

As Samsung releases a new UV sterilizer, people are now discussing whether UV sterilizers could wipe off coronavirus from your phones.

The National Academies of Sciences Engineering Medicine said via The Verge that UV light could probably erase viruses like SARS-CoV-2 off of our phones. However, evidence of its accuracy is not yet fully proven by experts. Hospitals also refuse to use ultra-violet light to disinfect people since this light may cause cancer and damages the eyes and skin of a person.
