News of the charger first emerged last week from Samsung Thailand, according to The Verge.
Samsung further stated that "The UV Sterilizer effectively kills up to 99% of bacteria and germs, including E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans, according to tests done by two independent test and certification institutes, Intertek and SGS.
" The UV Sterilizer features dual UV lights that sterilize both the top and bottom surface of items that are placed inside. Also, the device automatically turns off after 10 minutes and can "wirelessly charge your device" at the same time.
