Samsung’s Galaxy Sanitizing Service disinfects phones to fight coronavirus


The Galaxy Sanitizing Service is currently available in 19 countries

The Galaxy Sanitizing Service is being offered for free through official Samsung Service Center and Samsung Experience Stores in select countries currently and the service is being expanded continuously. It simply sanitizes the phone with UV-C light, no harsh cleaning chemicals required. These devices can be used to sanitize Galaxy phones, the Galaxy Watch and the Galaxy Buds.

The company advises against using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals to clean your phone as that may scratch the screen or damage the oleophobic coating that prevents fingerprints from smudging the display. Using liquid chemicals on devices that don’t have an IP rating will also lead to water ingress that could potentially kill the device.

They include Argentina, Chile, Croatia, Denmark, Finland, Japan, Republic of Korea, Malaysia, New Zealand, Norway, Pakistan, Peru, Poland, Russia, Spain, Sweden, United States, Ukraine and Vietnam.

Samsung will soon expand the service to Australia, Austria, Canada, Czechia, France, Greece, Hong Kong, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Israel, Italy, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Mexico, the Netherlands, Panama, the Philippines, Romania, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, the United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom.

Known fact: Singapore is not priority for Samsung. Never was, and still is not.

We are a small market, we have a small population as compared to bigger markets around the region.

So well, we have to accept the fact.

Can sanitize people and pets for free? Why phone is given special treatments?

April... such a long wait

don't worry, in the meantime, do remember to actively clean your mobile phones and tablets. Use a damp cloth or wet tissue to clean surfaces and cases, then use tissue to wipe dry.

I do that more often recently. If you have alcohol, you can try it, but not advisable to put so much.
