SAR beetween XZ1 compact and XZ2 c. : 1.36 / 0.77 (Head) - 1.32 / 1.05 (Body). Significant

[Mougtt]

Hello,

I am hesitating beetween those 2 compacts mobiles phones (at the same price...).

The pros for the XZ2c are mainly larger screen and the cons are less battery life and much worse design than the XZ1c. 

Something Sony improves is Specific Absorption Rate (to the benefit of the XZ2c) : 

0.77 for head and 1.05 for body (XZ2 compact)

vs

1.36 head and 1.32 body...  (XZ1 compact)

So, is this difference significant ??

Well the recognised recommended maximum limit is 2 (w/kg per 10g) so whether the difference is significant is really down to what you as an individual class as significant. Both units are well below the recommended maximum.
