Samsung enters the fight against Coronavirus by designing an innovative antimicrobial coating that will be used on its mobile phone cases. This particular coating has proven to be effective against spreading the virus, as it prevents particles from remaining on the surface of the case.
After the unprecedented pandemic, more and more companies are trying to provide consumers with effective solutions and products that give them a sense of security. Given that the mobile phone collects many microbes on its surface, it can easily become a means of transmitting the corona virus through touch.
Thus, the technology giant invested in prevention, designing these specific cases that ensure the virus and bacteria will not stick to them. Moreover, Samsung has filed a patent for the antimicrobial coating.
Commercially, this move could not have found a better timing, as the release of the new Galaxy Note 20 series is expected. The simultaneous release of the protective cases with the antimicrobial coating would result in substantial revenue increase for the company. However, there has not yet been an official announcement about when they will be available on the market.
