Radiation Value (SAR) of iphone 16e

Here is some background:

• https://www.fcc.gov/consumers/guides/specific-absorption-rate-sar-cell-phones-what-it-means-you

Per that: ALL cell phones must meet the FCC’s RF exposure standard, which is set at a level well below that at which laboratory testing indicates, and medical and biological experts generally agree, adverse health effects could occur. For users who are concerned with the adequacy of this standard or who otherwise wish to further reduce their exposure, the most effective means to reduce exposure are to hold the cell phone away from the head or body and to use a speakerphone or hands-free accessory. These measures will generally have much more impact on RF energy absorption than the small difference in SAR between individual cell phones, which, in any event, is an unreliable comparison of RF exposure to consumers, given the variables of individual use.

iPhones don't emit any ionizing radiation, which can be dangerous to your health. It has also been proven that the amount of radiation emitted by an iPhone is not significantly harmful to your health.

Honestly, every time you go outside and are in sunlight, you are exposed to significantly more radiation than your iPhone could possibly emit. iPhone is very safe in comparison. And while you can try a radiation eliminating cell phone case, it may well affect cellular connectivity. Personally, I think radiation strips and/or cases are snake oil solutions to a problem which doesn't exist.

There are many RF protective cases that you can look into. I don't feel comfortable offering any specific recommendation as that is a personal choice and will require research on the validity of the testing used by any manufacturer.

iPhone 16e

• Head SAR(US) - 1.19 W/kg with an FCC limit of 1.6 W/kg
• Body SAR(US) - 1.2 W/kg with an FCC limit of 1.6 W/kg

Mac Jim ID, is it true that those can interfere with the cellular signal on the device?

How are you measuring the SAR values of your iPhone?

Yes.
