Apple Addresses Radiation Concerns with iPhone 12 Software Update in France
TL;DR Summary
Apple will release a software update for iPhone 12 users in France to address concerns raised by regulators regarding the device's radiation levels. The French regulators had ordered a ban on the sale of iPhone 12 models after finding that the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) exceeded European radiation exposure limits. Apple has dismissed the claims, stating that it is related to a specific testing protocol used by French regulators and not a safety concern with the iPhone 12 itself. Other countries, including Belgium, Germany, and Italy, have expressed their intention to monitor the situation.
