The phone looks pretty cool but I'm not sure what their deal is with the radiation stuff. Their claims [1] seem a bit fearmongery. They even say stuff like "Although it has not yet been proven, the stress felt by those sensitive to EMF exposure may cause cortisol levels to rise"... not been proven, so why say it then?? Additionally it appears the only product they have ever shipped before is a music album [2], so I'm not sure how they go from that to a phone. I'd be surprised if this turns out to be any more than Indiegogo vaporware.

I work at Mudita so I hope you find this information somewhat useful in terms of your concerns. 1. The reason we mention people sensitive to EMF exposure is because after attending the 2019 EMF Conference in California (https://emfconference.com/ https://emfconference.com/), one of the major issues those people were facing was that without technology, they completely isolated themselves from their friends and family. A phone like Mudita Pure, which could be charged by their doctors, psychologists or care givers (in serious cases some people don't use any electricity at home) might mean the difference between being able to keep in touch with people they care about and being completely and utterly alone. We have tried to approach the subject in a respectful manner, without judgement of those who may be dealing with this. As it's likely I wrote the site copy you're referring to, it was not my intention for it to come across as 'fearmongery'. 2. Nick Lewis is a friend of Mudita's founder Michal. 3. I can assure you it's not vaporware. We launch in Autumn/Fall 2020. If you have any more questions, reach out via hello@mudita.com and someone will be in touch.

  1. I won't go into depth about my issues with the copy on that page, but I didn't see that narrative on the page anywhere. Maybe you should include that. It actually seems like a good idea to provide such people with electronic communication devices, whether you believe in their conditions or not. They should be able to stay in contact with the outside world, if they are indeed unable to come in contact with EMF. 2. My statement wasn't about who they were, but how a company would go from releasing a music album, to manufacturing electronic devices. As far as I can tell you haven't shipped any hardware to consumers before(?) 3. Well I would hope you'd give that assurance, but any company developing vaporware would probably say it isn't vaporware. I'll check it out later this year though, it seems like an interesting idea so I hope it ends up materializing.
