Choose the Right Cell Phone

If you are shopping for a new cell phone, consider the radiation levels of your phone before you buy. Research the SAR of your phone. SAR means Specific Absorbtion Rate. It measures how much radiofrequency (RF) energy (cell phone radiation) is absorbed by the body.

Purchasing a phone with a low SAR may help reduce your exposure to cell phone radiation. C/net has a great review of cell phone radiation levels.

The following is a list of the Ten lowest-radiation cell phones:
