France stops sales of iPhone 12 over high radiation level

ANFR The French agency in charge of telecommunications regulation has  that the iPhone model “no longer (be) offered for sale in all distribution channels in France” again. The ANFR recently tested 141 phones in a laboratory to determine how much electromagnetic radiation the body absorbs during the operation of the phone. 

It was found that the iPhone 12 exceeded the limit for direct body contact, for example in the hand or in the pocket. Instead of the maximum permitted four watts per kilogram, it was 5.74 watts per kilogram.

Apple, however, told BBC it was contesting the ANFR’s review, and said it had provided the regulator with lab results from the tech giant itself and third parties which show the device is compliant with all the relevant rules. It said the iPhone 12 was recognized as being compliant with regulations on radiation levels worldwide.
