Big shock for Apple: France bans iPhone 12 with a terrifying reason!
After China, the American tech giant Apple faces another ban, this time from France. However, the reason given by French authorities differs significantly from China's.
At Apple's recent Wonderlust event, the tech giant unveiled its latest iPhone 15 series, instantly sparking global discussions about its features and pricing. Interestingly, while much of the world focused on the new release, France turned its attention to an older model, the iPhone 12. The iPhone 12's sale in France has faced a potential halt, raising concerns over radiation emissions beyond the acceptable threshold.
The French government's radiation authority, ANFR, conveyed its intentions to halt the sales of both the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro, citing that these models emit radio waves at levels which might be detrimental to human health. The study that fueled this decision revealed that these phones could produce up to 1.5 watts per kilogram of radio waves when used in close proximity.

This figure breaches the 1 watt per kilogram limit defined by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). These standards set by the ICNIRP are established based on what's believed to be safe levels of exposure for humans. There are, however, certain experts in the field who argue that the current limits might still be excessive and potentially harmful.
In response to these allegations, Apple staunchly defended the safety of their products. They stressed that the iPhone 12 models in question adhere to all relevant safety guidelines. The tech giant has declared its plans to challenge the ANFR’s decision, leaving many wondering about the final outcome of this unexpected turn of events.
