The debate over the harmful effects of microwave radiation is about to heat up again. A report issued by the Environmental Working Group has linked cell phone radiation to a number of nasty health problems.
Phone radiation levels
An interesting accompaniment is a chart of radiation output of all common cell phone models. The worst offenders on the list seemed to come from Motorola, whilst Nokia and Samsung generally reside in the lower end of the scale. A number of the popular smart phones were also pretty near to the upper limits, but then again, other popular smart phones weren’t.
The top 10 lists are as follows, according to TechRepublic:
