The smartphone has so penetrated into our daily life that now no one can think of living without them. Excessive use of smartphones may cause health problems even if you are using a smartphone moderately with bad SAR, which is also the most dangerous to health.
The term SAR stands for Specific Absorption Rate which is a measure of the amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a mobile phone. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has adopted limits for safe exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy which is 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). Any smartphone at or below this Specific Absorption Rate level is “safe” to use. The Specific Absorption Rate limit recommended by the Council of the European Union in Europe is 2.0 W/kg.
You can check the Radiation level in terms of SAR of your smartphone by dialing a USSD code *#07#, this will show the SAR value. If results show a value below 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg) then it is OK and your smartphone is safe to use otherwise you are advised to change your smartphone immediately.
Interestingly iPhone 6 has just 0.01 below the threshold level of SAR. and most of the Smartphones available in the market are safe and have a SAR value less than the critical value. As you can see above, the latest 5 G-enabled phones have safer SAR value.
Sometimes *#07# not working, then you can find Specific Absorption Rate value in the phone settings. You may find the SAR Rating in a “General” or “About My Phone” section, possibly under “Legal.” Here you should look for things like RF Exposure, SAR Rating, etc. iPhone users can find SAR value under Settings > General > Legal > RF Exposure. This information should be easy to find if you just take a quick check around your phone’s settings.
The Specific Absorption Rate, which is a measure of the rate at which energy is absorbed by the body when exposed to electromagnetic radiation. Bad Specific Absorption Rate refers to a high level of Specific Absorption Rate, which can be harmful to health in several ways:
It’s important to note that the health effects of SAR depend on a number of factors, including the frequency and intensity of the radiation, as well as the duration and distance of the exposure. While some SAR exposure is unavoidable in our daily lives, it’s important to minimize exposure whenever possible and to use electronic devices safely and responsibly.
In addition to the radiation level, you must know about the following important USSD codes to get more information about your smartphone.
This USSD code gives a lot of information about the smartphone under the following four categories.
By dialing this USSD code from your Smartphone, it shows the IMEI number of your Smartphone which is a 15-digit unique number for your phone. IMEI is basically the Social Security number of your phone. Sometimes USSD code *#06# result gives 17 digits numbers. It adds 2 digits extra at the end. The first 15 digits shown before any space or dash is your IMEI. Note down the IMEI number of your phone in your diary, it is very useful in case your phone is stolen.
