KT Unveils Wireless Charger Equipped with Sterilization Function

[Asia Economy Reporter Koo Chae-eun] KT is selling the battery goods with sterilization function, ‘Picnic UV Charger,’ on its official online mall KT Shop.

According to KT on the 23rd, the Picnic UV Charger is a wireless charger equipped with a UV sterilization function. It can also be used as a portable battery. KT Shop directly planned and produced this product to alleviate customers’ concerns about ‘germs,’ which became a major inconvenience for many after the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19). The name ‘Picnic’ was given to imply that it can be easily carried and used anywhere.

When you place your phone on the charging spot, harmful bacteria are sterilized by 99.9% in just 5 minutes. It is a ‘multi-purpose item’ that can be used not only for phones but also for products that require sterilization such as wireless earphones and masks. It supports fast charging with a maximum output of 15W, and the portable battery capacity is 10,000mAh, allowing 2 to 4 full charges depending on the smartphone battery capacity. It comes in two colors: mint and white. The Picnic UV Charger can be selected as a gift in the iPhone 12 pre-order event currently underway on KT Shop from the 23rd. Additionally, 100 customers who participate in the quiz event held during the reservation period will be selected by lottery to receive the product as a prize.

Ko Chong-rim, Executive Director of KT’s Strategic Channel Support Headquarters, said, “We are pleased to introduce the exclusive product ‘Picnic UV Charger’ following KT Shop’s differentiated services such as ‘1-minute order’ and ‘1-hour delivery.’ We will continue to offer services and products that customers need.”
