What is the specific SAR value of the iPhone 12 Pro Max?

Dear Apple Support Team,

I am writing to express my concern regarding the potential health risks associated with using the iPhone 12 Pro Max. I have read recent reports suggesting that the device may emit radiation levels that exceed safety limits and could potentially cause cancer.

I understand that Apple has stated that the iPhone 12 Pro Max complies with all applicable safety standards. However, I would still like to request more information about the device's radiation emissions and any potential health risks.

Specifically, I would like to know:

  • What is the specific SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) value of the iPhone 12 Pro Max?
  • What scientific studies have been conducted to assess the long-term health effects of using the iPhone 12 Pro Max?
  • What measures can I take to minimize my exposure to radiation while using the iPhone 12 Pro Max?

I appreciate your time and attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.

Sincerely,


[Edited by Moderator]

You are NOT speaking to anyone at Apple. This is a user to user only forum. As such we cannot answer any of your questions. Personally, I wouldn't be in the least concerned. The French Government raised a concern, which was not raised by any other country in the world. And Apple addressed their (what to me is a completely unfounded) concern with an update, which after testing the French Government was satisfied with and withdrew their concern.


Every iPhone model is tested to pretty strict standards. And I would not be personally concerned. If you want more details however, we can't answer them. Feel free to contact Apple directly if you want.
