I work in a Biohazard Level 3 lab, where we do experiments on various infectious diseases. BL3 labs are fairly protective. The policy is that if anything touches the bench (the table surfaces), then it is no longer sterile, and is not allowed to leave the lab without being decontaminated. Decon requires an autoclave, essentially a dishwasher with very high pressures and temperatures, which would damage any electronics and melt cheap plastic.
We have "sterile" areas in the lab which we're allowed to place items, such as notebooks, that can leave the lab. These areas are fairly small, remote, and crowded. Since they are only sanitary, and not sterile, their safety is questionable.
Keeping my phone in the lab is a pain. I can keep it in my pocket, but if I get a call or if I need to use it then I need to take off my gloves, wash my hands, use the phone, then put new gloves back on.
The ezeStand would allow me to keep my phone in the lab safely. I would no longer need to waste time just to check the time. I can ignore unimportant calls or texts, and only take the time to answer the important ones. It would also allow me to place the phone anywhere on the bench, since the base of the stand would be contaminated, but the phone itself wouldn't. I could leave the stand there, and just remove the phone when needed. If I had to remove the stand, its efficient design would allow for easy decontamination.
