Love the watch but extremely concerned about radiation levels I measured
By Brian Mullins on Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2025
Please refer to my short video about my RF measurements from the wrist side of my Apple watch, series 8. These measurements far exceed the allowable radiation health limits allowed. Please note that I am not a professionally trained engineer, and the following observations are mine and that my style of measurements may be flawed. I contacted Apple before making this product review, but my technical questions were not addressed to my satisfaction. Please also note that I have long used Apple products and use an iPad for video/ sound production.I bought this series 8 watch because of the accuracy of health measures of heart rate, steps, sleep, and other functions. It is at the top in the market in performance in my opinion in these areas. For battery life, I had to charge it before I went to bed each night. Unfortuntely from what I discovered, I no longer use this watch. Using an RF meter bought on Amazon, this watch measures WAY ABOVE the government acceptable limits. I do not claim to be an engineer, but from my measurements, this measurement is in the warning zone of unhealthy. Please zoom in and notice the peak reading on the meeter. There are many times that the readings are higher than what is shown. At these levels, I will not tolerate this amount of radiation going from my watch into my wrist. When I informed Apple, I was told that the engineer stated it was under allowable limits by their measurements. My technical questions though were not addressed.As a side note, when I measured my wife’s series 7 Apple watch, her watch measured in the acceptable, safe zone measured on my meter, which is in the black left side of the meter display. I mentioned this to the Apple rep who said that he knew that the series 8 did put out more radiation.For another bit of information, I measured my iPhone and iPad, which showed measurements much higher in the red, danger zone when I was using it or having a call. During my measurements, I was not touching my meter, nor was the item being measured in close proximity to any other device to interfere with an accurate measurement. This higher reading is especially true if using while being recharged. I now NEVER use an apple device while it is being charged.When I measured my other Android type smart watches purchased on Amazon, all measured in the safe zone. I am back to wearing a previously purchased watch for working and another for church and at night. I literally hate the inacuracy of sleep measurement from the android, but will not tolerate the radiation from the apple watch I used to wear. Now that I have not been wearing my apple watch for a couple of weeks, and I do not know if it is just my mind doing this, (commonly called “the placebo effect”), but I am actually feeling better not wearing the watch - my digestion has improved, my memory has improved, and my joints do not ache as much when bad weather comes.I encourage you to do your own research and apologize for being technical. I took two stars away because of what I see as a serious health, safety issue. I may go to the trouble of finding a series 7 apple watch when my time schedule allows. I hope this information has been thought provoking and motvated you to think about your health.
