Most people are completely unaware that cell phone company’s today strongly advise against holding your cell phone against your face. Just in case you haven’t already read your mobile device’s user manual, we pulled a couple all-nighters and did it for you. Here are some interesting quotes we found: IPHONE “iPhone’s SAR measurement may exceed the FCC exposure guidelines for bodily worn operation if positioned less than 15 mm (5/8 inch) away from the body..” “When on a call using the built-in audio receiver in iPhone, hold iPhone with the dock connector pointed toward your shoulder to increase separation from the antenna. When using iPhone near your body for voice calls or for wireless data transmission over a cellular network keep iPhone at least 15mm (5/8 inch) away from the body…” {note: I have never seen anyone hold their phone perfectly vertical from their shoulder…normally the “dock connector” is held near one’s mouth for talking – like how phones are supposed to be used!} BLACKBERRY Blackberry recommends in their manual to “keep the device at least 0.98 inches (35mm) when the BlackBerry device is turned on and connected to a wireless network. When using any data feature of the BlackBerry device…keep the device at least 0.98 inches (25mm) from your body.” TAKEAWAYS The shocking thing about all this is you don’t need to be talking on your cellular device to be exposed to electromagnetic frequencies (EMF). As blackberry mentioned, you should keep the cellular device at a distance from your body while it’s transmitting/receiving data. It’s important for people to understand that any wireless technology that updates itself, streams...

We get asked a lot, “why choose the name Kangaberry”? This was definitely one or the hardest decisions – choosing a name that best represented what we stood for (awareness, responsibility and quality) and also something was generally positive and generic enough that if we wanted to expand our product line, we wouldn’t be pigeon holed. After sorting through around 50 different names and eliminating the ones that were taken, we just went with what made us happy. Often when we asked people between a few names of choice, they would “smile” and immediately gravitate to “Kangaberry” when it was mentioned. Ultimately, we envision Kangaberry to one day be a household name, along with ecommerce and physical store where people gravitate to and look forward to going! A lot of brands today use animals as part of their marketing strategy, and since I (Sara) love animals I thought is was the perfect opportunity to do the same with Kangaberry. The whole idea of a Kangaroo protecting it’s young by carrying them around in her pouch is both sweet and very similar to what we were trying to achieve with Kangaberry; carrying a cellular device around in a special case/pouch to protect ourselves. The name “berry” at the end, just seemed like a nice fit. There is a store in my hometown of Aurora, Ontario (Canada) named “Lemonberry” and I always get excited before I go there (even after many years!)… along with many other people. The marketing was there and the name just always made me happy, so I naturally tagged it on the end of “Kanga” 🙂...

Sometimes it’s hard for people to believe the power of cell phone electromagnetic radiation because they can’t seen it. This is why it’s even more necessary for you to see the video below. Note: the cellphones radio waves vibrate water molecules inside the popcorn allowing it to “cook”/pop. Cell phone also is absorbed by water molecules in your body while held close enough. The scary thing was it took less than a minute to pop! Think of how often you hold your cell phone in your pocket today or talked on the phone? This is why it is important to have something to protect YOU from your phone. Kangaberry cases will do...

Stop Frying Your Insides Today ! .. The iPhone is the pinnacle of cell phone design. Its sleek aluminum body, minimalistic appearance, and refined look & feel scream classy. So why would you cover all of that beauty with a cheap, ugly plastic (or rubber) cell phone case? Your cellphone case should be as well-designed as your phone, and that’s where the Kangaberry case comes in. BE THE FIRST TO GET A KANGABERRY! Why Does It Fit So Well In Your Pocket? After months of testing different materials and working with Perfect Leather (est. 1969) to product the perfect leather for Kangaberry, we selected premium cow leather for the case. Not only is it very thin but extremely strong, durable, able to withstand heavy use compared to goat or lamb skin. It’s also soft and kinda sexy! We wanted a product that would last years, not months. If your like us and really care about how animals are treated, you should know that another reason we chose this specific type of leather is because the cow skins were also harvested as by-products of meat production.
