PRESS RELEASE
LONDON, UK. - November 21, 2012 - Pong Research Corporation today announces the availability of its new Samsung Galaxy S III case that reduces users' from exposure to the mobile phone radiation, and can improve cellular signal strength and conserve battery life.
"The Pong Samsung Galaxy S III case features our patented technology that makes it the only case available today that both significantly reduces consumers' exposure to mobile phone radiation and enhances the overall user experience," said Todd DeYoung, CEO, of Pong Research. "Other cases can increase users' radiation exposure by interfering with the Samsung Galaxy SIII's cellular signal, which forces the device to use more power and consume battery life to overcome that interference. The Pong case protects users and eliminates the frustrations associated with poor reception."
Proven Technology
All smart phone antennas emit microwave energy, a form of electromagnetic radiation (EMR), when transmitting to cell towers. Consumers' heads and bodies can absorb the majority of this radiation. Pong rigorously tests its cases in its two test labs. All products are tested for SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) and TRP (Total Radiated Power) on all frequencies on which the phone operates worldwide. Two independent labs, CETECOM and RF Exposure Labs, both accredited as Telecommunications Certified Bodies with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and able to issue FCC equipment authorization approvals, verify Pong's internal testing results. CETECOM and RF Exposure Labs regularly perform SAR measurements according to U.S., Canadian, European, and Australian standards for mobile devices.
While there is no consensus yet on the risk from exposure to the EMR emitted by smartphones, in 2011 the World Health Organization, based on findings by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, classified mobile phone radiation as "possibly carcinogenic" to humans.
"The World Health Organization recommends that consumers adopt what it calls the ‘precautionary principle,' and we have developed our line of mobile device cases to help consumers do just that." added DeYoung.
The slim and elegant design of the Pong case complements the Samsung Galaxy S III's stylish curves. The Pong case features a NCVM (Non-Conducting Vapor Metallization) high-tech coating that creates a sleek, metal look.
Pricing and Availability
The Pong Samsung Galaxy S III case is compatible with model GT-i9300 (3G version) and GT-i9305 (4G/LTE version). Priced at £63.99, the case is available two colors: white and metallic blue.

About Pong Research
Pong Research Corporation is the world's first and only maker of technologically-advanced iPad and smartphone cases that improve device performance and protect users against cellular and Wi-Fi radiation. Independent certified laboratories have proven that Pong's mobile phone cases reduce users' exposure to potentially harmful mobile phone radiation by up to 95 percent below international safety limits, and can improve reception and conserve battery life. And, compared to other cases, Pong's iPad case not only reduces cellular radiation exposure up to this level and Wi-Fi radiation exposure by up to 72 % percent but also can improve cellular signal strength by 10X, increase range, improve Wi-Fi reception, and accelerate cellular upload speeds. Developed by a team of PhD scientists trained at MIT, Princeton, Harvard and UCLA, all Pong cases are embedded with a multi-patented, ultra-thin flexible printed circuit board antenna that redirects and diffuses the electromagnetic radiation (EMR) that would otherwise be absorbed by the user's head and body. Now protecting people in more than 100 countries, Pong cases are easy to put on and take off, come in a rainbow of fashionable colors and styles, work anywhere in the world, and may be purchased at pongresearch.com and amazon.com-with prices starting at £39.99.
