Modern man is constantly surrounded by all sorts of equipment. She has become so familiar that many do not even think about whether it is safe for health. Not only every household appliance has a certain level of radiation, be it a refrigerator, a microwave oven, a vacuum cleaner or even an iron, but also all kinds of personal devices that we use almost around the clock, which means we are constantly exposed to them. That is why for many years the public has been concerned about the safety of using various devices, especially smartphones, because this is the most popular and frequently used device.
Although there is no direct evidence of the negative impact of smartphones on health, and the radiation level that comes from the phone is not large enough to damage DNA structure at the cellular level, many doctors and scientists recommend to treat them with caution and give preference to the safest models. After all, according to the American Cancer Society (ACS), smartphones can increase the risk of a tumor.
It is possible to determine how great the potential health hazard is by the SAR level - the coefficient of absorption of electromagnetic energy by human tissues. In the safest smartphones available in Russian stores today, this figure does not exceed 0.60 watts per kilogram during a call and 1 watt per kilogram as a whole. Such models are included in our review. The rankings took into account the database of the Federal Office for Radiation Protection of Germany (BfS) and the world-famous statistical organizations.
