**kcnychief** · June 5th, 2006

AKA roll of tin foil

**bobsalot** · June 5th, 2006

why are motos the highest. are they run on nuclear fuel rods?

**Admiral Michael** · June 5th, 2006

LOL I thought it was funny the list was mostly comprised of Motorolas.

**bobsalot** · June 5th, 2006

**madmatt** · June 5th, 2006

There are ties. Three phones tied for the last spot.

**Shamus MacNoob** · June 5th, 2006

makes me glad I got a SE and not a Microrola I mean Motorola

**Geffy** · June 6th, 2006

Its an american company isnt it, they probably just figured the costs of reducing emissions would be too costly.

apologies for this blatant stab at the us, I couldnt resist

**Kush** · June 6th, 2006

another reason to add to my list of why i hate motorola!

**Petros** · June 6th, 2006

Razrs scare me. They make radios buzz when they ring.

**LeeJend** · June 6th, 2006

If you read the whole article what's really interesting is the range of levels.

It runs something like 0.34 all the way up to 1.58. You'd think the high level phone makers would care more about reducing exposure levels if numbers that low can be acheived.

Any mobile will do that to unsheilded speakers. I had a really crappy set that picked up Taxi radio transmissions.

**omg its nlm** · June 6th, 2006

Motorola FTL, Really don't like any of their phones anyways.

**Terrahertz** · June 11th, 2006

Whew mine didnt make the list. V551

**ming** · June 11th, 2006

heh... I'd just like to add that from what I've been hearing, Moto also has the highest number of faulty handsets.

or at least, their phones breakdown much quicker than other manufacturers'.

**xsivforce** · June 11th, 2006

Source of this list? I would like to read more.

Your list (thanks) made me curious.

Good explanation of how we're (possibly) frying our brains:

How Cell-phone Radiation Works

If you know your cell phone's FCC identification code, you should be able to look up the SAR:
https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/prod/oet/c...ericSearch.cfm

Or look at the label on your phone:

"In order to gain an FCC license, a phone's maximum SAR level must be less than 1.6 watts per kilogram (W/kg). In 2000, the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) ordered cell-phone manufacturers to place labels on phones disclosing radiation levels."
