Does a low SAR rating also mean low reception?

Answer 1

A low SAR means your phone has a low emission power when "talking" to your network.In remote areas or poor network coverage you'll need high power if you want to be able to make a phone call or use other features like mobile internet."Reception" means sensitivity of your phone to the weakest signals send by your network.Low SAR phones are useless in low coverage areas.

Answer 2

Not necessarily. SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) measures the amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body from a mobile phone, but it doesn't directly correlate to reception quality. Reception quality can be influenced by various factors such as network strength, phone design, and location.
