Radio Frequency Exposure Test Finds an iPhone 11 Pro Exceeds the FCC's Limit (ieee.org)

I am going to call BS- these devices have to pass basic emissions tests for their FCC license. Those labs are accredited and certified and the process is not cheap.

FCC SAR Test Reports for the iphone 11 Here: https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/ViewExhibitReport.cfm...

This is more complex than just signal measurement- normally you have to know how to kick the device over into a test mode to test full power output since the devices will, by design, self throttle their power. I am really curious how "rfexposurelabs" setup the test. Also I find it interesting that they are going to make this claim and not publish the lab report so everyone can review their methodology.


This seems like some FUD to sell magical pseudoscience phone cases "to reduce RF exposure." And where is Thunderf00t when you need him? ;)
