They did say, however, that all phones are within the limits established internationally, but that consumers should consult their list and purchase phones with the lowest radiation emissions. That is if they want to be safe. The limit is 2W/Kg, and the iPhone scored just under with 1.19 W/Kg. Another reason to use Bluetooth I suppose.&nbsp;</p>
