This conceptual smartphone sanitizer has been designed as a dual-purpose solution to keep your device clean and operational at all times to prevent avoidable illness and more.
The smartphone is never out of arms reach of its user but is reported to have extremely high levels of bacteria content on its surface given the multiple times per day it's used and the lack of clean it receives. This is what the sanitizer seen here aims to change by wirelessly charging your device with as it cleans the surface to ensure it maintains a sanitary experience.
The conceptual smartphone sanitizer is the design work of Jeong Hwan Sohn & JungHo Lee, and is inspired by the aesthetic of a toaster with a convenient pop-up functionality.
