LG TONE Free HBS-FN6 can clean itself with UV light

The  HBS-FN6 is considered more premium since this one includes LG’s innovative UV Nano charging case. The case is built for protected storage, hassle-free charging, and enhanced hygiene. According to LG, there are many studies that proved earbuds can harbor more bacteria than a kitchen cutting board. These bacteria can lead to the possibility of ear infections. 

The company claims that the slim charging case keeps listeners’ ears cleaner by eliminating 99.9 percent of E. coli and S. aureus 2. This is said to be possible by the use of built-in ultraviolet light, non-toxic, hypoallergenic silicone ear gel 3, and inner mesh.
