Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Safety Tip:How Much Will Turning Off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Reduce Radiation?This SAR chart reveals how turning off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on your Samsung Galaxy Note 8 can significantly reduce your exposure to radiation. Our SAR comparison chart shows that by simply turning off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth transmitters, you can lower the RF radiation exposure to your head by 40%, and you can lower exposure to the body by 33.1%, when considering these differences between cellular-only (Wi-Fi/Bluetooth OFF) and simultaneous use exposure (Wi-Fi/Bluetooth ON), a wise way to reduce excessive phone radiation is to tap off unnecessary transmitters when not in use! Additionally, when using your phone as a hotspot, turning off Bluetooth can reduce your exposure by up to 60% according to the FCC SAR report for device number A3LSMG950U.

Key Takeaways
- Children vs Adults: Children have higher SAR levels due to thinner skulls and developing tissues, making them more vulnerable to radiation.
- Wi-Fi Impact: Simultaneous use of cellular and Wi-Fi transmission increases SAR levels for all age groups.
- Precautionary Measures: Using radiation protection products like QuantaCase can help mitigate these risks, especially for younger users.
By understanding these differences, parents and guardians can make informed decisions to better protect their children from excessive microwave radiation exposure, emphasizing the need for safer smartphone usage practices and protective accessories like QuantaCase.

The Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of a mobile device measures the amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body during device usage.
The SAR values for the galaxy-note-8 (FCC ID A3LSMG950U) are as follows:
- 0.75 W/kg when held at the head with cellular transmission only
- 0.93 W/kg when worn on the body with cellular transmission only
- 0.95 W/kg when used as a Hotspot or Airplay
- 1.25 W/kg when held at the head with simultaneous cellular and Wi-Fi transmission
- 1.39 W/kg when worn on the body with simultaneous cellular and Wi-Fi transmission
- when used as a Hotspot simultaneously with other transmitters active.

LTE-U receiver A3LSMG950U
According to test reports filed with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) for the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is 0.34 watts per kilogram (w/kg) at your head or when Wi-fi calling is enabled 0.75 W/kg, and 1.01 w/kg when worn on your body. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 hotspot SAR is 0.95 W/kg. The SAR for simultaneous transmission (cellular, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth) for the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is 1.53 W/kg when used as a hotspot simultaneously with all other transmitters active.
All SAR levels reported for the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 to the FCC are averaged over one gram of body tissue corresponding to the maximum allowable level of 1.6 w/kg. The SAR levels will vary depending upon your specific cell phone carrier (e.g., AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, or Verizon).
The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 minimum separation distance for body-worn testing was 15 mm, that requires a smartphone user to maintain over 1/2 inch minimum separation (15 mm = 0.59 in) or 1.5 cm for SAR safety compliance.
Galaxy Note 8 SAR compliance for body-worn operating configurations is limited to the specific configurations tested for this filing. Body-worn operations are restricted to belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that have no metallic component in the assembly and must provide at least 1.5 cm separation between the device and the user’s body. End-users must be informed of the body-worn operating requirements for satisfying RF exposure compliance.
The highest reported Galaxy Note 8 SAR levels for the head, body-worn accessory, product specific (wireless router), and simultaneous transmission use conditions are 0.34 W/kg or .75 W/kg using wifi calling, 0.93 W/kg, 0.95 W/kg, and 1.53 W/kg, respectively.
LTE-LAA Receiver A3LSMG955U
Galaxy Note 8 SAR compliance for body-worn operating configurations is limited to the specific configurations tested for this filing. Body-worn operations are restricted to belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that have no metallic component in the assembly and must provide at least 1.5 cm separation between the device and the user’s body. End-users must be informed of the body-worn operating requirements for satisfying RF exposure compliance.
The highest reported SAR for head, body-worn accessory, product specific (wireless router), simultaneous transmission, and product specific (phablet) use conditions is 0.22 W/kg, 1.01 W/kg, 0.91 W/kg, 1.55 W/kg, and 3.97 W/kg, respectively.
