Which phone has the lowest SAR value?
- The best low radiation cellphones: our top picks.
- Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus.
- Samsung Galaxy A20s (SM-A207F/DS)
- LG V60 ThinQ 5G.
- Makes and Models of the Best Low Radiation Phones.
- The Apple iPhones with the lowest radiation (SAR) score.
As per FCC, the permissible limit for public exposure from cell phones is a SAR level of 1.6 watts per kilogram (W/kg). Hence, any cell phone at or below this SAR level is considered to be safe.
So how much SAR is better? Lower is better, although as noted earlier FCC in the US considers SAR level of 1.6W/kg good enough. So don't worry if your phone has a SAR value of 1.2 or something like that even though most phones are nowadays in the range of 0.5 to 0.6.
Any cell phone at or below these SAR levels (that is, any phone legally sold in the U.S.) is a "safe" phone, as measured by these standards. The FCC limit for public exposure from cellular telephones is an SAR level of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).
Older Phones Emit 5 Times More Radiation than FCC Permitted Levels.
- Samsung Galaxy Note10+ 5G – 0.19 watts.
- Samsung Galaxy Note10 – 0.21.
- Samsung Galaxy A80 – 0.22.
- LG G7 ThinQ – 0.24.
- Motorola Razr 5G – 0.27.
SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) for Mobile Phones
DoT has approved the permissible SAR value limits for Mobile Phones to 1.6 W/Kg measured over 1 gm tissue.
The SAR value is the radio frequency transmitted by the phone. FCC has set the SAR level. The SAR level of any device should not exceed 1.6 W per Kg.
Use speaker mode, head phones, or ear buds to place more distance between your head and the cell phone. Avoid making calls when the signal is weak as this causes cell phones to boost RF transmission power. Consider texting rather than talking - but don't text while you are driving.

What is the safest cell phone?
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra
Your Note 20 Ultra has multi-layered security created by this security platform. You will get security improvements designed expressly for the Android OS, encryption, and TrustZone architecture to safeguard critical data.
The Xiaomi Mi A1 with 1.75 W/kg SAR value is found to be emitting the highest amount of radiation followed by the OnePlus 5T which has 1.68 W/kg SAR value. The Xiaomi Mi Max 3 and the OnePlus 6T take the third and fourth spot with 1.58 W/kg and 1.55 W/kg, respectively.
