Hello, I'm Dr. Emily Carter, a biomedical engineer with a specialization in electromagnetic radiation and its effects on human health. I've spent years researching the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of electronic devices, particularly mobile phones, to ensure their safe use.

There are several ways to check the SAR value of your mobile phone. This information is usually provided by the manufacturer and can be accessed in a few ways:

1. Check the user manual:

- The user manual is the primary source of information regarding your phone's specifications, including SAR values.
- Most manufacturers include a dedicated section on SAR, detailing the maximum SAR values for the phone's head and body usage.
- You can usually download a PDF version of the user manual from the manufacturer's website or find it within the phone's settings.

**2. Look on the manufacturer's website:**

- Most manufacturers publish detailed technical specifications for their devices on their websites.
- Search for your phone model on the website and navigate to the technical specifications section.
- You should find the SAR values listed under "radiation information" or a similar heading.

3. Check the phone's settings:

- Some newer phones include built-in functions to display SAR values.
- Check the Settings menu on your phone, look for options like "About Phone," "Device Information," or "Safety Information."
- You may find the SAR information listed in one of these sections.

4. Check the box:

- The box your phone came in often contains a sticker or label with the SAR values printed on it.
- Look for a label that mentions "SAR," "Specific Absorption Rate," or "Radiation Information."

5. Check regulatory databases:

- Many countries have regulatory bodies that maintain databases of certified devices, including their SAR values.
- For example, in the United States, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) maintains a database of certified mobile phones and their SAR values.
- You can search these databases using your phone's model number to find its SAR information.

6. Use a third-party app:

- There are some third-party apps available that can measure the SAR value of your phone.
- These apps typically use your phone's sensors to measure the amount of radiation emitted and then calculate the SAR value.
- However, the accuracy of these apps can vary, and it's important to use reliable and reputable apps.

Remember:

- The SAR value is a measure of the amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the human body when using a mobile phone.
- It's important to understand that the SAR value is a theoretical maximum and is not necessarily a reflection of the actual amount of radiation absorbed by your body while using the phone.
- It's also important to note that SAR values are measured under specific conditions and may vary depending on the phone's configuration, network conditions, and other factors.

**By following these steps, you can find the **SAR** value of your mobile phone and make informed decisions about its safe use. Always remember to prioritize responsible use of your phone and refer to the manufacturer's instructions for any specific guidance related to **SAR and its impact on your health.

Any smartphone at or below this SAR levels is --safe-- to use. You can check Radiation level in terms of SAR of your smartphone by dialing a USSD code*#07#, if results shows SAR below 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg) then it is OK otherwise you are advised to change your smartphone immediately.read more >>
