I was amazed when i so an I phone replica (which even I myself couldnt afford) in the hands of a normal guy at the road side which happened to be a person i know. when i got it on my hands, quickly i noticed the cheap feel and the effectiveness of the touch capability!
It's of course non of my business to look at others or what ever there using, but it's really sad to see how people expose them selves to critical health risks without knowing it! This is to let you know of the many things that you aren't aware of with tech gadgets you use every day!
Mobile phones and your health!!
A mobile phone is a tech gadget you use in close proximity to your body's sensitive areas. for example, the ear and the brain comes in very close proximity when you use the mobile for calling, and if your placing your mobile in your pant pockets, your reproductive organs are closer to the device all the time.
Whats the Big deal??
A mobile phone is some what a 2way Radio in it's very basic nature, and it use wireless technology to transmit signals and this nature of the device generates radiation. Radiation in big amounts can harm living tissue of animals. therefor every mobile phone has to meet the minimum requirements of the SAR value (specific absorption rate). and every recognized mobile phone company test there devices to be safer and always provide details of SAR value of the device.
a Chinese unbranded phone will normally not have these standards checked and the cheap price points always attract people to buy them without any hesitation. in long term these individuals who are overjoyed with their cheap gadgets will become victims of cancer or and many other health issues that might take away their valuable life and money.
Other Gadgets --
Being to the computer shops recently I found out that there are unbranded brand new LCD screens being sold for very cheap. A couple of guys just bought these LCD's while i was there at the shop. they had names unrecognized in the PC hardware brands and were cheap and worked very well (or rather they were capable of displaying signals from the PC output).
The down side is that these gadgets didn't have a warranty period. and also you cannot be sure of there power consumption levels nor the safety measures that should be taken to protect eyes of the user.
These are just 2 incidents I came across, and What I want to say to you is, Don't ever buy Cheap tech gadgets, as the money that you think your saving right now will be lost in big amounts in the future due to the health risks your exposing your self to.
It'd be rather safe to use a very basic gadget from a branded company than using a high tech cheap gimmick which would offer you more for less and some extra health issues.
