00:00:21.840 --> 00:00:27.519
poop on their phones including me until recently I knew that FICO matter flying

00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:31.400
out of your toilet when you flushed it was kind of an issue but I didn't quite

00:00:29.160 --> 00:00:35.079
realize how bad it actually was luckily someone at the welcome trust did know

00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:38.520
about this the welcome trust's aim is to and I quote achieve extraordinary

00:00:36.879 --> 00:00:41.920
improvements in health by supporting the brightest minds and essentially they're

00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:45.840
an independent charity that funds research to improve human and animal

00:00:44.360 --> 00:00:51.000
health they accomplished this by being one of the world's largest providers of

00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:53.120
non-governmental funding and they funded

00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:57.800
a study that found that one in six phones are contaminated by feal matter

00:00:55.879 --> 00:01:02.120
which wouldn't be a problem if you could wash your phone the same way you wash

00:00:59.480 --> 00:01:06.240
dishes enter the phone soap charger a proper cleaning solution for your phone

00:01:04.360 --> 00:01:11.159
phone soap claims and I quote that there is a lot of ways to sanitize your phone

00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:13.080
such as with soap bleach or fire the

00:01:11.159 --> 00:01:18.720
first two will very possibly damage your phone and however awesome cleansing your

00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:20.920
phone with fire may sound don't do it

00:01:18.720 --> 00:01:25.560
although that being said having a fire cleansing blowtorch for your phone would

00:01:22.600 --> 00:01:30.720
be pretty metal ah back to reality so how does it work well the phone soap

00:01:27.320 --> 00:01:32.520
utilizes ultraviolet germic radiation

00:01:30.720 --> 00:01:36.600
which is already used in a variety of applications including food air and

00:01:34.399 --> 00:01:41.079
water purification the the specific ultraviolet light required is called UVC

00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:45.920
which is short wavelength ultraviolet radiation and the phone soap uses two

00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:49.920
UVC lamps which are positioned above and below the phone while it is inside the

00:01:48.240 --> 00:01:53.399
phone soap charger all of this sounds great because after all the research

00:01:51.320 --> 00:01:59.439
I've been doing I'd rather not have this acne causing disease spreading crap pun

00:01:56.840 --> 00:02:03.479
intended on my phone because that thing goes against my face man some amount of

00:02:01.479 --> 00:02:07.640
germs can be good for your immune system but the amount that is on your phone

00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:11.120
could be a little bit too much now that we know how it works let's do a quick

00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:16.680
tour of the unit in terms of build quality well it's a plastic box it's

00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:20.480
totally unexceptional but it also isn't horrible I would have liked to see more

00:02:18.720 --> 00:02:25.800
considering you're paying $60 for what is essentially two UV lamps a USB plug

00:02:23.560 --> 00:02:29.560
and some plastic housing around it but if it performs its function then I guess

00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:33.360
that's all right speaking of USB plug you can plug in any USB cable you want

00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:37.680
into the unit so be able to charge pretty much whatever phone you have

00:02:35.440 --> 00:02:41.040
which is nice and there's an LED on the front of the unit which shows its status

00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:45.519
blue means the unit is currently in cleaning mode and green means your phone

00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:51.400
is fully charged and last but not least there are unique acoustic Outlets AKA

00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:54.480
holes which are cut into the bottom of the unit which will allow sound to pass

00:02:52.959 --> 00:02:57.200
through so you won't miss any alarms or notifications that may go off and with

00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:01.760
that out of the way the question on everyone's mind is does it actually work

00:02:59.920 --> 00:03:06.560
well phone soap and the Daily Planet both seem to think so they went to a

00:03:03.640 --> 00:03:10.599
microbiology lab and made this video I'm No scientist but their results seemed a

00:03:08.560 --> 00:03:16.280
little bit too amazing and although this is my personal nonprofessional

00:03:13.319 --> 00:03:20.400
opinion uh I wasn't a fan of a few things about their methodology one they

00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:23.640
sprayed pre-made bacteria on the phone and immediately went to Cleansing it

00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:28.519
with a phone soap or in the case of the control immediately pressing against an

00:03:25.519 --> 00:03:30.879
augar plate this process doesn't seem as

00:03:28.519 --> 00:03:35.080
real world as we would like with our testing two they only left the phone in

00:03:33.040 --> 00:03:38.799
the phone soap for the 4-minute cycle that it takes to clean the phone not the

00:03:37.200 --> 00:03:44.280
common way I would expect people to use it which is an overnight cycle three

00:03:41.799 --> 00:03:48.720
they claim you see results of the control test that was had bacteria that

00:03:46.480 --> 00:03:52.079
was living on the phone but it was just sprayed on the phone with a solution

00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:55.920
that was pre-created all in all it felt like the control test was just a result

00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:59.400
of exactly what was in the spray bottle they may have well just sprayed the

00:03:57.040 --> 00:04:03.480
spray bottle directly onto the agar and again I'm not a scientist but letting

00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:07.319
different bacteria live on the phone for prolonged period of time so it has time

00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:12.280
to cultivate and grow like it would in the real world especially in pockets and

00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:15.879
purses which act almost like incubators would make for a more realistic test

00:04:13.920 --> 00:04:18.160
than just a spray bottle the test didn't have much to do with the phone they

00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:22.520
could have actually sprayed this Solution on any non-biocidal object and

00:04:20.840 --> 00:04:27.080
the results honestly would have been the same so let's walk through the methodologies we used we actually

00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:30.720
decided to do it a second time because we were worried when our initial results

00:04:28.840 --> 00:04:35.120
conflicted with the daily Planet the first test was with two separate HTC1

00:04:32.840 --> 00:04:39.039
m8s which I cleaned off with an alcohol solution then I used both of them the

00:04:37.280 --> 00:04:43.720
exact same way doing the exact same thing for 2 days I then put one phone in

00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:47.039
the phone soap and left it on the table and left the other one on the table

00:04:44.960 --> 00:04:50.800
beside it for a total of 8 hours after which I let the cultures grow in AAR for

00:04:49.080 --> 00:04:54.639
a little over a week the results were inconclusive with all the plates looking

00:04:52.759 --> 00:04:57.639
more or less the same and we were concerned that using two different

00:04:56.000 --> 00:05:01.560
phones and letting the plates cultivate for too long may have both affected our

00:04:59.960 --> 00:05:06.199
results the second test was done with one phone an iPhone 4 I ran this through

00:05:04.320 --> 00:05:10.080
a worst case scenario by intentionally not taking care of it the way I normally

00:05:07.800 --> 00:05:15.720
do as I'm actually quite anal about the cleanliness of my phone un intended I

00:05:13.479 --> 00:05:20.199
prepared AAR plates and then swabbed the phone before putting it in phone soap

00:05:17.440 --> 00:05:24.800
charger as I first put four plates in our war warm server room to cultivate

00:05:22.919 --> 00:05:29.120
after 8 hours I swabbed the now phone soaped phone and did the same thing

00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:33.600
about 4 days later it takes longer because we don't have incubator I first

00:05:31.039 --> 00:05:37.520
took the control samples out and filmed an examination of them and then 8 hours

00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:41.120
later I took the phone so samples out and filmed an examination of them as

00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:45.360
well doing the exact same procedure to be clear once again we're not scientists

00:05:44.280 --> 00:05:49.080
and we totally love to hear your feedback on our methodology and we're

00:05:47.440 --> 00:05:52.039
not specifically calling out the Daily Planet we just thought this thing was

00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:56.360
pretty cool so we bought it for an unboxing ages ago but since we don't do

00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:59.919
unboxings anymore we end up having to actually review it I don't actually

00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:05.520
think there's anything inherently ly wrong with daily planet's testing methodology and it is likely more

00:06:03.039 --> 00:06:08.840
technically correct than ours is I just prefer more real world testing scenario

00:06:07.599 --> 00:06:12.880
when testing something that I will actually use in the real world this is

00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:17.400
the same reason why we do gaming benchmarks by actually playing the game

00:06:15.199 --> 00:06:21.400
instead of using a canned Benchmark in the end the results were not as good as

00:06:19.400 --> 00:06:27.680
I was hoping after watching the other video but it did have a repeatable

00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:29.599
measurable positive effect in one case

00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:34.479
it actually left the plate very if not perfectly clean but it did leave things

00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:38.240
behind in our three other scenarios another thing to note is that we are not

00:06:35.919 --> 00:06:43.440
in a lab so the control group isn't perfect meaning that all the AAR plates

00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:47.840
didn't have the exact same bacteria or the exact same amount of bacteria in

00:06:46.080 --> 00:06:51.759
them but that doesn't change the fact that the phone soap still didn't cleanse

00:06:49.280 --> 00:06:55.680
whatever that bacteria was off the phone and this bacteria is what came out of

00:06:53.880 --> 00:06:58.759
the foone soap so as far as I can tell if you want something that can mostly

00:06:57.000 --> 00:07:03.440
clean your phone then the phone soap is it but it may not be the 100% effective

00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:07.199
solution that the Daily Planet showed in their video and it also won't help the

00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:11.199
fact that your pocket is essentially an incubator and you are growing cultures

00:07:09.400 --> 00:07:14.440
throughout the day while you use your phone let me know what you guys think in
