Samsung Galaxy Notes 4Samsung Galaxy Note 4 will contain several novelties. It is speculated to offer a corneal sensor, which was hinted at by Samsung on its Twitter, but in particular, the phone is speculated to offer a UV sensor. It will be connected to S Health and will be a user inform about it in detail, what the current level of UV radiation is and how users should protect themselves. However, alongside the recommendations that will appear after each measurement, Samsung has decided to include a section in the software that reveals the truth of various claims about UV radiation.

The statements will be divided into two sections, namely the True and False section. However, thanks to the sources, you can now read with us which statements are true and which are not:

True:

  • Tanning increases the body's defense against UV radiation
  • A dark tan on pale skin only provides protection at the level of a SPF 4 sunscreen
  • 80% of the sun's UV radiation can penetrate through light clouds. Fog can even increase the UV radiation a person is exposed to
  • Water provides minimal protection against UV radiation – the reflection of water can expose a person to additional UV radiation
  • UV radiation is lower in the winter months, but snow can double the radiation a person is exposed to. At the beginning of spring, you have to be careful, because even at low temperatures, the sun's rays are unexpectedly strong
  • Tanning creams should not be used to prolong the time spent tanning, but to increase skin protection. The level of protection one needs is very closely related to the correct use of the cream.
  • UV radiation increases during the day
  • Skin burns are caused by UV radiation and cannot be felt. Burning is caused by infrared radiation and not UV radiation

False:

  • Sunbathing is healthy
  • A tan protects a person from the sun
  • On a cloudy day, it is impossible to burn the skin
  • A person cannot burn himself in water
  • UV radiation during winter is not dangerous
  • Sunscreens protect people so that they can tan longer
  • If a person takes regular breaks while tanning, his skin will not burn
  • If a person does not feel the hot rays of the sun, his skin will not burn
