This device is a universal charger as well as a phone sanitizer. All you need to do is place your phone in the box, close the lid and the UV-C rays clean your phone. The box also contains small holes in the bottom, so you don’t miss out on the notifications. This gadget seems to focus on hygiene freaks.
