Review: PhoneSoap 3 Smartphone UV Sanitizer

Did you know your iPhone may actually be up to 18 times dirtier than a public toilet? This is the claim being made by PhoneSoap, and the problem that the company is out to solve with its eponymous PhoneSoap 3 UV sanitizer. While PhoneSoap’s claims may seem shocking on the surface — and perhaps even a little bit self-serving considering that the company sells a cleaning product — when you actually take time to think about the way in which most of us use our iPhones, it may not be that surprising; after all, we handle our iPhones many times a day, every day, in a wide variety of circumstances, and unless you have the hygienic diligence of a germaphobe, chances are that you’ve transferred germs and bacteria to your iPhone from a variety of everyday objects, ranging from toilets handles to gas station pumps and subway turnstiles, even leaving aside the many surfaces you might set your iPhone down.
