To lower the radiation, Apple promises software update for iPhone 12's

A couple of days ago, France's National Frequency Agency (ANFR) banned the sale of the iPhone 12 in the country because it found that the device emits more than the permitted electromagnetic waves according to EU regulations. 
Its Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) was above the legal limit. The agency gave Apple an ultimatum, telling it to use "all available means" to resolve the issue quickly or face a recall of all iPhone 12 units ever sold in France. 

Today, Apple has responded, promising to issue a software update that will settle the dispute. It's unclear what the software update will do exactly, but Apple is confident that it will alleviate the French agency's concerns and accommodate the testing methods used in France. 

Unlike in other countries, in France the ANFR not only performs head and body SAR tests, but also tests SAR for limbs - as when you're holding a phone in hand. It is these limb tests that the iPhone 12 failed. 

Officials from Belgium, Germany, and Italy have asked Apple to issue this update to the whole of the EU, so that's probably what will happen. 

The French government said the iPhone 12 would be swiftly retested following the release of the update, and if it is found to be inside the legal SAR limits, sales will be resumed immediately.
