do you have a picture of that highlighted part?
type *#07# on your iPhone’s keypad
why would you have a photo of the uninteresting part but a screenshot of the interesting part, and no link to published material from apple?
😮💨
what does that mean?
that text doesn't appear here:
and only sort of related to some information here:
so i wonder what your source is..?
Apple Support
Important safety information for iPhone
Important safety information about your iPhone.
Apple Regulatory Information
right, that's what i found. an explanation of how it was tested. the red highlight in @Rusty 's post is not from that text from Apple. his post very misleadingly and deliberately makes it seem that the red-highlighted text appears somewhere in the printed booklet pictured. which it does not.
there's no reason for him to be dishonest and misleading when there ard actual sources (like the ones we found) that he could cite directly.
Thanks to inverse square law, keeping your cellphone 10 inches away from your body, as compared to one-tenth of an inch, results in a 10,000-fold reduction in exposure.

It's saying the same thing though. They specifically state 10mm of separation.
Newer devices are 5mm.
The apple watch page specifically states "when placing apple watch near your face, keep at least 10mm of separation..."
What exactly is misleading?
The bottom line is the manufacturers themselves include these warnings, and they do so for good reason.
you're both missing my point. it's not about how many millimeters various tests refer to. it's about his original post, the style of it, and the implications:

You posted a photo of the printed booklet and wrote "nobody reads these anymore" with a screenshot with a red highlight, which insinuated that the text appeared in the printed booklet.
It's the insinuation that is dishonest. Am I wrong that the post was designed to make it appear that the red highlighted text appears in the printed booklet that "nobody reads"? If I'm wrong about that, what _was_ the intended meaning of the post?
