Samsung SGH-a137
This Samsung model has one of the lowest radiation-absorption scores, according to EWG's newly updated database.
And that may be reassuring news to people who follow the work of Dariusz Leszczynski, a research professor at Finland's Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority in Helsinki, who has done studies that indicate RF radiation may create a stress reaction in the cells that line blood vessels, leading to a dangerous breach in the blood-brain barrier. "Mobile phone radiation may be able to indirectly hurt cells, perhaps by interfering with their ability to repair normal DNA damage," he says.
