Govt in touch with Apple Singapore following suspension of iPhone 12 sales in France over radiation issue

SINGAPORE: The Singapore government has initiated contact with Apple Singapore following concerns about the electromagnetic radiation levels emitted by the iPhone 12. The action follows the suspension of iPhone 12 sales in France due to alleged radiation level breaches, prompting several countries to launch regulatory inquiries into the popular mobile phone.

Local authorities revealed that Apple had submitted an electromagnetic radiation report to the IMDA during the iPhone 12’s registration process here, indicating compliance with international standards, including EU electromagnetic radiation standards. This report led to the approval of iPhone 12 sales in Singapore.

“NEA and IMDA would like to assure the public that there are strict safety requirements in place before any equipment emitting electromagnetic radiation is approved for use in Singapore. We will closely monitor the developments in this case,” said the authorities.
