It's unclear why the phone, released in 2020, didn't pass the agency's latest tests and why it was only that particular model.
French regulators ordered Apple to stop selling the iPhone 12, saying it emits electromagnetic radiation levels that are above European Union standards for exposure. The company disputed the findings and said the device complies with regulations.
France's digital minister said the iPhone 12's radiation levels are still much lower than levels that scientific studies consider could harm users, and the agency itself acknowledges that its tests don't reflect typical phone use. The phone passed a separate test of radiation levels for devices kept in a jacket or in a bag, the agency said.
It's not clear why this particular model appears to throw off higher radiation but it"may be associated with the initial stage of connection when the phone is 'looking' for a transmit/receive signal," he said.Apple said the iPhone 12 has been certified by multiple international bodies and complies with all applicable regulations and standards for radiation around the world.
He said the iPhone 12's radiation levels are"slightly higher" than EU standards but"significantly lower than levels where scientific studies consider there may be consequences for users. But the rule is the rule."
