There are many important factors you need to consider when buying a smartphone. These include camera quality, battery life, charging speed, display features and connection options. However, in addition to these technical details, the amount of radiation emitted by the device should not be ignored. Here are the smartphones that emit the least radiation for your health…
Smartphone models that emit the least radiation
The amount of radiation emitted by smartphones is measured by the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR value). The SAR value is defined as the power per kilogram in watts. This measurement shows how much radio frequency energy your phone emits into your body.
When we look at the list of phones that emit the least radiation shared by the German Federal Office for Radiation Protection, we see that ZTE Blade V10 is at the top. The SAR value of the device is 0.13 W/kg for the head and 0.22 W/kg for the body. In second place is the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 + and behind it the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 . The radiation emitted by the two models is 0.19 W/kg – 0.28 W/kg and 0.21 W/kg – 0.29 W/kg for the head and body, respectively.
Smartphones that emit the least radiation are listed as follows;
