Universal EMF Protection + Radiation Blocking Cell Phone Case

After placing a call or answering your phone, simply close the shielded front cover of the DefenderShield® Cell Phone Casebefore you put the phone against your ear. By keeping the shielded front cover closed while against any part of your body, a barrier is created to protect from a broad spectrum of potentially harmful cell phone radiation emissions that won’t affect signal quality.

• Voice and sound quality will not be affected since the microphone is unobstructed on the bottom of your phone and a small opening over the ear speaker allows you to hear perfectly.
• When placing your phone in your pocket, purse or bag, keep the shielded front cover closed and facing towards your body.
• When using your phone’s touchscreen, flip the front cover to the back side of the cell phone.

Apple iPhone 3D touch screens have adjustable screen sensitivity. If your phone is acting unexpectedly when closing the cover of your case, this can be easily resolved by adjusting the sensitivity of the touchscreen in your phone settings.

Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > 3D Touch. You can either turn this feature completely OFF or set the sensitivity slider to FIRM to make the 3D touch screen less sensitive.

Please note, this is only applicable for the iPhone 6, 7, 8, SE2020, iPhone X, and iPhone 11 models.

1. Open the wallet cover of the DefenderShield® Universal Phone Case.
2. The case comes with two small metal plates and one large metal plate. Choose which plate(s) fit the back of your phone best. We recommend one large plate if you have a large phone with the camera located at the top of the back of the phone. We recommend the small plate if you have a smaller phone. If you have a phone with the camera located in the center on the back, use one small plate above the camera and one small plate below the camera.
3. When ready to adhere the metal plate(s), remove the 3M paper covering the adhesive on the metal plate(s).
4. We recommend placing the metal plate(s) onto an existing phone nesting. The adhesive can also be attached directly to the back of your cell phone. DO NOT adhere the metal plate(s) to the DefenderShield® Wallet Case.
5. Place the back of your phone or case onto the interior backside of the DefenderShield® Wallet Case.
6. To use the camera, remove your phone from the wallet case.
7. For EMF protection, make sure the shielded front cover of the wallet case is closed and in between your phone and your head. When you store your phone, keep the shielded front cover closed and in between the phone and your body.

The strength of the magnets used in our products are at such a low level that there is no health risk to the user.

The primary function of our cell phone cases is to protect from harmful EMF emissions. However, the DefenderShield® Cell Phone Case for Apple iPhone models features an anti-shock, rubber phone nesting with thicker material on the four corners for high impact protection.

DefenderShield® Magnetic Cell Phone Cases are not compatible with wireless charging stations. In order to charge your phone with a wireless charging station, remove the phone from the nesting case and place the phone directly onto the charging station.

The front cover of DefenderShield® Cell Phone Case contains a complex mix of highly engineered, superior alloy metals combined in a single layer and duplicated multiple times.Nanotechnology included in our shielding absorbs EMF frequencies while providing a resistive path for the energy. Our shielding does not draw in radiation like a typical conductive metal, but instead forms a resistive net, that effectively catches and blocks all radiation headed in the direction of the shield.

 DefenderShield® technology blocks up to 99% of EMF radiation from 0-10 GHz, which encompasses most frequencies used in the current 5G network. This includes both Radio Frequency (RF) and Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) radiation and does not, in any way, influence the transmission characteristics of a cell phone or other wireless device (i.e. block the signal or reflect radiation emissions). The shielding is not embedded within the back of the case so you can still receive cellular and WiFi signals.

Remove the phone from the DefenderShield® Cell Phone Case and wipe the case using a soft cloth and warm, soapy water. Be sure the case is completely dry before placing your cell phone back inside the case. We do not recommend submerging your DefenderShield® Case in water or using household cleaners, aerosol sprays, solvents or other cleaners, as they could be damaging.

Radiation is generated by the cell phone in all directions; bottom, top, sides, front and back with the most radiation emitted from where the Radio Frequency (RF) transmitters are located.

We suggest keeping your phone at least 4 feet away from your bed when you sleep.

Placing your phone a few feet away will considerably reduce the amount of EMF radiation reaching your body. This also applies to tablets and laptops.

Cell phones emit Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) and direct exposure to these emissions can be a health risk. There are two types of EMF radiation emitted from cell phones: Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) radiation which is emitted from all electrical devices, and Radio Frequency (RF) radiation which includes cellular signals, WiFi and Bluetooth. More and more, particularly in recent years, scientific studies have confirmed that EMF exposure can adversely impact the biological operations of the body. In more serious cases, exposure to EMFs can lead to tumors, reduce sperm count and other serious health concerns.

Cell phone radiation emissions present the greatest potential health risks when directly touching the body, especially the head, breasts and reproductive organs. Moving your cell phone away from your body just a few inches reduces health risks. When a cell phone is moved at least one foot away from the head or body, cell phone radiation is reduced by as much as 80%.

If your phone accesses the 5G network (iPhone 12 series, Samsung Galaxy S21, Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, etc.) there is most likely a way to turn off 5G connections, put in place because your 5G signal might be slower than 4G/3G networks, and it can really drain your battery. When your iPhone is in low power mode, it will only connect to the 5G network for streaming 4k video. Apple outlines other ways you can disable the 5G network in your settings. Just navigate to Settings, Cellular, Cellular Data Options, and select Voice & Data. You can turn on LTE, which will use only 4G LTE even when 5G is available. You can also switch on low data mode, which helps reduce WiFi and cellular-data usage by pausing automatic updates and background tasks. For Samsung 5G phones, you should be able to navigate to Settings, Connections, Mobile Networks, then select Network Mode, where you can disable 5G by tapping LTE/3G/2G (auto connect), 4G/3G (auto connect), 3G only or 2G only. You can also use our DefenderShield iPhone 12 Series and Universal Series EMF Protection Cases that come with our BRAND NEW Ultra Armor™ Technology, the only shielding technology that can block the entire 5G spectrum.

Twenty years ago, computers and telephones were big and bulky. Computers were placed on the floor and weren’t designed to move while phones were placed in a stationary base connected by cords and wires. They both emitted Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), but were relatively safe because they were used a safe distance away from the body.

Today, the computer and phone have merged into one device that fits in the palm of your hand. A smartphone is essentially a small computer, yet has many times the computing power of traditional computers. When turned on in your pocket or used against your head, the cell phone touches some of the most sensitive parts of the body. Now, cell phones are now used much closer to the body and for longer periods of time, creating more health risks than in the past.

Yes. By default, WiFi is enabled on cell phones, so unless you turn this capability off, your WiFi processor will continue to send out wireless radio frequency (RF) signals in search of a WiFi router. This means even if you are not connected, your phone is emitting radiation in its search to connect to a router. When you are connected, your phone is still emitting radiation to maintain the signal, by sending constant pings to the router and back. We advise turning off your WiFi processor in settings when you are not actively searching for a WiFi signal.

All cellular devices are given a SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) rating, that measures how much RF energy is absorbed by a user’s head and body. This is measured in watts per kilogram, and is the maximum absorption the phone is capable of. With the hundred of different phone models, with new ones coming out all the time, it’s hard to say what phone has the highest SAR rating. Generally, iPhones have skewed higher on SAR ratings when compared with other phones. Samsung phones have a reputation for scoring low SAR ratings. We recommend checking your devices specific SAR rating, which can be checked in the phone’s user manual as well as on the manufacturer’s website and the FCC website.

SAR stands for Specific Absorption Rate, and is the rate that cell phone radiation emissions are absorbed into the body. The FCC states that an exposure limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram is an acceptable level. The limit in the European Union is 2.0 W/kg averaged over a larger mass. While this is the standard that has been accepted as safe, it is based on the assumption that EMF can only create thermal damage with chronic exposure. This ignores research showing that other biological effects are evident at lower levels of radiation exposure, below levels necessary for thermal heating. If these standards were to be updated, they might show a lower limit. For now, SAR thermal absorption standards are helpful for comparing radiation emissions between different devices, but it by no means establishes an absolute safe level for these emissions.

When you use a cell phone directly against your head or next to your body, it exposes you to potentially harmful EMF radiation emission levels. These emissions include:

1. Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) Radiation – coming from the battery powering your phone
2. Radio Frequency (RF) Radiation – coming from your cellular data signals, your WiFi processor, and your Bluetooth processor
3. Heat Radiation – a by-product of ELF and RF emissions

To access the 5G network, your device first needs to be either operating under a cellular data contract or using a fixed wireless cable system in your home. This rules out most tablets, laptops, WiFi routers, and other devices that are separate from your cellular plan. For devices that use cellular data, to connect to 5G they must have a 5G modem built into the device (some 5G trials and testing used separate modems that connected to your phone for 5G access). Integrated 5G modems didn’t come out until 2020, and are only in select phones (iPhone 12 series, Samsung Galaxy S21, Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, etc.). If you have an older phone model, your phone is not capable of connecting to the 5G network–and no, 5GE is not the 5G network, but instead a 4G LTE advanced signal that was called 5GE (5G Evolution) for marketing purposes. If your phone or fixed wireless system does connect to the 5G network, then it can access frequencies up to 100 GHz. However, the higher the frequency, the less distance the signal can travel, so carriers are mostly utilizing frequencies under 6 GHz (classified as low-band and mid-band) and rarely use high-band frequencies, also called millimeter waves.
