France's iPhone 12 Ban Exposes Apple's Radiation Risks

France has banned the sale of iPhone 12, claiming that the device emits electromagnetic radiation levels above EU standards. The country's radiation watchdog, ANFR, found that the iPhone 12's Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) exceeded the allowed limit. However, ANFR stated that a software update could resolve the issue. France's minister in charge of digital issues noted that while the iPhone 12's radiation levels are higher than EU standards, they are still considered significantly lower than dangerous levels. Apple has rejected ANFR's claims, stating that the iPhone 12 is compliant with global radiation standards and will contest the ban.

France Bans iPhone 12 Sales Due to Radiation Worries

France has ordered Apple to stop selling iPhone 12 models and recall all devices sold in the country due to concerns over excessive electromagnetic radiation. The French agency responsible for regulating radio frequencies found that the iPhone 12 emits more electromagnetic waves than permitted, posing a potential risk to users. Apple has contested the findings and stated that the device is compliant with all relevant regulations. This is not the first time Apple has faced regulatory scrutiny in France, as the country has previously required retailers to display radiation values on product packaging. Apple has two weeks to respond to the order.
