Study: Samsung Mobile Phones Emit Least Radiation

A new study from the Environmental Working Group's (EWG) has compiled a list of the 100 best and worst cell phone radiation levels after examining more than 1,000 mobile phones marketed in the United States.

"We would like to be able to say that cell phones are safe," EWG Senior Scientist and lead author of the study Dr. Olga Naidenko said. "But we can't. The most recent science, while not conclusive, raises serious issues about the cancer risk of cell phone use that must be addressed through further research."

Furthermore, "because cell phone technology has been around for just two decades, scientists do not yet fully understand long-term health risks from cell phone radiation," the EWG warns in its report.

According to the study, the top phones with the least levels of radiation emission include: Samsung Impression (AT&T); Motorola RAZR V8 (CellularONE); Samsung SGH-t229 (T-Mobile); Samsung Rugby (AT&T).

However, at the bottom of the pile, emitting the most radiation were; Motorola MOTO VU204 (Verizon Wireless); T-Mobile myTouch 3G (T-Mobile); Kyocera Jax S1300 (Virgin Mobile); Blackberry Curve 8330 (Sprint, U.S. Cellular, Verizon Wireless, MetroPCS).
