The Best UV Phone Sanitizers

Thank about it: we touch our phones more than (most likely) anything else on a daily basis, which means that they’re collecting all of the dirt, grime, and germs our hands come into contact with as well. In fact, they’re a breeding ground for bacteria and germ buildup. In fact, some studies have actually indicated that our phones are often dirtier than toilet seats. Time reported that a study found that phones are actually up to ten times more contaminated with germs and bacteria than toilet seats. The solution? Daily cleaning sessions using a sanitizing method like wipes, sprays or best of all, UV sterilization devices designed specifically for keeping your phone nice and clean.

These gadgets effectively clean smartphones by harnessing the antiseptic properties of UV lights, and they get the job done in just five minutes or so. These compact devices do the work for you—simply place your phone in the box, press a button and wait a few minutes for your pristine and clean phone to emerge.
