Mudita Pure has a unique GSM module that supports different standards (2G, 3G and 4G/LTE). That’s why it works in most countries and you don’t have to buy a separate device for each area. Thanks to this you can use the services provided by the majority carriers around the world! Most feature phone modems support limited bandwidths dedicated to specific geographical areas. We implemented two nano SIM card slots to enable switching between cards on the go. This allows you to use local SIM cards when abroad, while your home country SIM card stays securely in the phone instead of somewhere in your wallet (and it can be activated anytime you need it). Mudita Pure won’t have maps but GPS may be available as an optional update in future.

Yes, Mudita Pure will ring unless you set Mudita Pure to ‘do not disturb’ mode. We’re happy to share that we asked our friend, musician Nick Lewis, to compose and record special, gentle and pleasant sounds. He used a variety of instruments including: Guitar, Ukulele, Gitalele, Tibetan Bowls, Koshi Bells, Cymbals, Harf and more. The high quality sounds of these instruments will wake up you in a calm way, which is why a Harman speaker was so essential.

Pure will have the following certifications: UL, FCC, CE, PTCRB and GCF. An important thing to bear in mind is that we’re aiming to deliver the best classic phone on the market. We think that people deserve to have an option to choose a high quality phone with their health and wellbeing in mind.
High quality can and should be delivered in a conscious way, which is why Mudita Pure was entirely designed, developed and manufactured in the EU. Tailor-made by our team of engineers, who carefully selected each piece. It was built with durability in mind. They hand-picked every single component and have developed a proprietary operating system to ensure the best experience.

We have decided not to equip Mudita Pure with email, if you need to check your email, it’s more convenient to use a laptop connected to the phone via tethering. We can confirm that there won’t be a camera. If you look on the positive side, this means that there is no temptation to take out your phone to take a picture, you can live completely in the present moment. No additional apps can be installed.

While designing Mudita Pure we considered people dealing with EHS, so we have two antennas in one area of our phone, which switch depending on the range. For example, if 4G is lost somewhere, instead of boosting power through the modem, we change the frequency. If the frequency matching is better on the other antenna, the phone automatically switches the antenna. The solution is an active antenna. Mudita Pure minimizes a user’s exposure to radiofrequency energy, with estimates of less than 0.08W/kg at your head (for context, an iPhone X’s SAR value is 1.08W/kg). Mudita Pure was tested at Verkotan (a FINAS and ILAC accredited testing laboratory) in Finland.
At the EMF Conference 2019, our phone was presented to international experts in the field of EMF, such as Prof. Olle Johansson, Dr. Lisa Nagy, other doctors and medical practitioners, building biologists, radiation research companies, academics and people with EHS.
We have their support with regards to our notion (this does not mean they endorse Mudita Pure) and we intend to continue raising awareness and taking action with regards to EMF exposure. We are now working on further tests of Mudita Pure, under varying circumstances, more than simply measuring SAR.
