France demands from Apple to remove iPhone 12 from sale due to high radiation

The government supervisory authority in France demanded that Apple withdraw the iPhone 12 from its market due to an too high level of electromagnetic radiation.

This is stated in the statement of the National Agency for Radio Frequencies, which supervises the radio electrical frequencies and the influence of electromagnetic radiation on the population.

In its statement, the department called on Apple to apply all available means to quickly eliminate this malfunction for the phones that are already used.

As the French regulator noted, the corrected updates will be controlled by the agency, and if they do not work, Apple will be forced to withdraw the phones that have already been sold.

The agency stated that it discovered the level of absorption of electromagnetic energy 5.74 W per kilogram during a phone testing in the hand or pocket, which exceeds the EU norm, which is 4 W per kilogram.

The company itself denies these conclusions and states that the device meets all the standards governing radiation. She noted that the phone was certified by many international bodies and complies with all the current standards and standards for radiation around the world.
