How Much Radiation Does Your Cell Phone expose
GSPPROFILE.COM (Mobile News) ― Debate about the radiation risk from your cell phones. Are your children protected from the radiation?
Studies have found the possible harm to your health minimal, while others have been inconclusive. But there’s now a way to find out how your cell phone measures up - how much radiation your wireless phone expose. Among the devices emitting the most radiation is from Blackberry Curve. On “The Early Show” Friday, CNET’s Natali Del Conte discussed the list, and the risk of cell phone. The iPhone, Natali Del Conte says, “isn’t a big offender,” radiation-wise. It ranks in the middle.
If you’re concerned about cell phone radiation, or worried about expose to the radiation there are some products you can use from the market that claim to filter the radiation out, but she adds that using a hands-free device puts any radiation “further from your brain.”

What is SAR:
SAR (specific absorption rate) is an indication of the amount of radiation that is absorbed into human head while using a cellular phone, the higher the SAR rating the more radiation that is absorbed into the head.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR):
A SAR value is a measure of the maximum energy absorbed by a unit of mass of exposed tissue of a human using a mobile phone, over a given time. SAR values are usually expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg) in either 1g or 10g of tissue.
SAR Exposure Limits:
The European Council Recommendation 519/1999/EC for exposure guidelines has adopted the recommendations made by the International Commission on Non-Ionising Radiation Protection (ICNIRP Guidelines 1998). Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA), specific absorption rate, or SAR, is “a way of measuring the quantity of radiofrequency (RF) energy that is absorbed by the human body.” For a phone to pass Federal Communications Commission (FCC) certification, a cell phone’s maximum SAR level must be bellow 1.6W/kg (watts per kilogram). Europe, the level is capped at 2W/kg while Canada allows a maximum of 1.6W/kg. The SAR level listed in our charts represents the highest SAR level with the phone next to the ear as tested by the FCC. Keep in mind that it is possible for the SAR level to vary between different transmission bands and that different testing bodies can obtain different results. Also results to vary between different editions of the same phone handset that’s offered by multiple carriers.
Please remember publishing this list are we in no way implying that cell phone use is or isn’t harmful to human health. Some tests have shown that cell phone radiofrequency (RF) could accelerate cancer in laboratory animals. Cell phones can affect internal pacemakers, but there is not conclusive or demonstrated evidence that they cause adverse health affects in humans. Conversely, there is not conclusive or demonstrated evidence that they don’t cause adverse health affects in humans.
If your phone isn’t listed here (U.S. customers) and you’ve purchased it within the last few years (the FCC Web site currently does not provide information on models certified before 1998), you can request the SAR information from the manufacturer or your carrier. You’ll need the model number and FCC ID number, which is usually but not always listed in your owner’s manual or under your phone’s battery (you must pop the battery out). For links to the FCC’s Web site, please see the More Resources section below. We’ll continue to update the list as new phones are announced.
