Google Pixel 3 XL SAR test reports filed with the Federal Communications Commission FCCID A4RG013C — the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) the Google Pixel 3 XL is 1.35 watts per kilogram (w/kg) at your head, and 1.19 W/kg when worn on your body. The Google Pixel 3 XL hotspot SAR is 1.35 W/kg and its SAR for simultaneous transmission (cellular, Wi-Fi) is 1.59 W/kg when used as a hotspot simultaneously with other transmitters active.
All SAR levels reported for the Google Pixel 3 and Google Pixel 3 XL to the FCC are averaged over one gram of body tissue corresponding to the maximum allowable level of 1.6 w/kg.
SAR levels will vary depending upon your specific cell phone carrier (e.g., AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, or Verizon).
The Google Pixel 3 XL and Google Pixel 3 XL minimum separation distance for head is 0mm and body-worn testing was 10 mm. That means the phone should never be closer than 10mm to your body when in use to ensure SAR safety compliance.
