I have this at my hair chair in my salon. I use it to sterilize my clients and my own phones, keys, rings, and my haircutting shears.

This is cloth covered plastic container which you have to zip and unzip to use which is annoying. Charge only lasts for 3 UV sanitizations. I would have preferred a plastic container without the cloth or zip. It also looks like a cheap travel toiletry bag.

This is exactly the same as the gray HomeMedics UV-C sanitizing bag, just a different color. The specs listed are for the pop-up phone sanitizer with 2 lights. Read the specs for the gray one to get an accurate description. Easy to use, only takes 60 seconds to sanitize anything that fits into the bag. Lightweight and rechargeable makes it convenient and quite portable. Highly recommended.

Very easy to use with a quick reading of the instructions. Charging port is a little difficult to get out of its stow pocket initially. Large enough for phones, keys, glasses, watches, etc., yet not big enough for remotes. Lightweight and portable. Works as described. On a side note, this is exactly the same size as the black one. The description and specs for the black one is actually for the pop-up phone sanitizer with only 2 UV-C lights which is a completely different model. These have 4 and are larger.

UV PHONE SANITIZER

UV Phone Sanitizer is great to have ...especially during today's pandemic. It's portable, fast and easy to operate. It sanitizes much more than phones. I've sanitized car keys and remotes. Whatever can fit into the case can be sanitized in minutes. I didn't want to take my phone out of the case so I used the platform, instead of the phone racks. It's much smaller than I thought it would be but I'm happy with the size.

This is a great device that is versatile and simple to use, and quickly sanitizes many of your everyday items. While it is great to use on your phone, you can also do such items as glasses, keys, computer mouse, etc. It has plenty of capacity. You can do a lot of cleaning on a single charge.

I really like the portability if this sanitizer. It’s nice to put my face mask in it and sanitize between uses and it also means I can take my mask off when I get in the car if I have to run to a second store instead of keeping it on until the end of my errands. The only thing is that I am only finding I can only use it a few times between charges, but it is not worse returning at this time.

Bought this because a lot of my family members are using these types of devices to disinfect daily-use objects with UVC light. I guess it's working... It's cycle is super-fast, only a minute or two, compared to some other products which subject the item to be disinfected to the UV light for up to 10 minutes. I like the little cell phone clips they give you so you can stand the phone up and get coverage on both sides. Each side of the device has 2 lights. I turned my cell phone camera on and videoed the process just to make sure they came on and they do. So yeah... here's to hoping these things aren't the next fad/scam.

Not Perfect, But Nice To Have

Pros:
- Case looks great and parts are of good quality
- Product and rechargeable battery are easy to use
- Product seems to work well
Cons:
- Price seems a bit too high for what it was, if I didn't have a $50 gift card at the time I doubt I would have spent this much for this product.
- Since the item must be fully closed and locked to start the cleaning process, you never actually see the internal lights to know if they are even working.
- For the price, a larger case would be nice. I just find for certain things they are a little cramped and even after a few cycles I'm not sure if the lights hit all the surfaces.
Overall this is a well made product that I would still recommend to family and friends. Though, with many competitors out there now, it is likely you could find a better deal for your money.

Great sanitizer for phones and small things. I use this to not only sanitize my phone but also my keys, money, airpods, and face mask. With this COVID situation a little protection couldn’t hurt anyone. It’s a bit pricey but the ease and convenience make up for it.

I am very happy with this product overall. It does a good job of bathing your phone in UV light. I recorded a video to be sure that it was working since you cannot start the device unless it is closed properly. It holds the iPhone 11 Pro Max with the Apple Leather Case securely. I have used it to "clean" the tv remote, car key fob, wallet and credit cards. It's nice to have a little more peace of mind during the Covid 19 era. I use it right when I walk in the door after I wash my hands.
I would have given it 5 stars but it requires that you position the zipper pull correctly over the magnetic area. It has to be precisely done or it will not turn on for safety reasons. That is a good thing but it makes using it a little more difficult. I have had to explain it to everyone that tries to use it.

The portable sanitizer is a nice size. It lights up while the disinfecting cycle is going. When it’s done it turns off. If the uvc light actually kills germs this is a great B product

Big enough for our eyeglasses, keys, or phone with the cover. Takes one minute to run its course each time. Zips up to prevent eye damage. Portable. Easy to use. Well priced compared to PhoneSoap and UV wands.

This product charges quickly! It sanitizes before you can say sanitize quickly 10 times. It easy to use. I really hope that the uv light is on when using the product. I’m glad I bought this product. I’ve used it to sanitized masks, phones, and remote controls.

It is very convenient to carry around. It is also easy to use. It works really quick. The only reason I had to subtract one star is that I can not tell if it actually works or not. I just have to trust that it is doing what it says it does. The instructions say that when the light is blinking blue that means it is working, but there really is no way to verify that (or at least I can not think of a way). Other than that, it is quiet, compact, and works great for keys, phones, masks, sun glasses, and other small objects.

Glasses, keys and phones fit perfectly in this sanitizer. Easy to use, especially during these Covid 19 health concerns. This is a great unit as it is re-chargeable and doesn't use batteries. I need one to use at work as well.

A very easy way to clean your phone, watch, mouse, keys, credit cards.....you get the picture. If it fits in the pouch, you can kill the germs. It is a soft pouch with a small shelf that you can insert for items to bring it closer to the UV lights. The phone holders work well for my Pixel 4XL and my wife's Moto. It is easy to travel with and I will definitely bring it to work...when we go back to the office (Work from home is getting old but better to be safe).

Fits my phone and other items such as keys perfectly. Overall I like it so far and have no complaints. The zipper closure has not been a problem either. Yes I would recommend this if looking for a portable cleaning device. Anything that could provide some degree of protection against germs/viruses is worth trying in my opinion.
