              and when worn on the body is 0.55 W/kg* for speech and
              1.27 W/kg* for data calls. For body-worn operation, the phone
              has been tested when positioned a minimum of 15 mm from
              the body without any metal parts in the vicinity of the phone or
              when properly used with an appropriate Sony accessory and
              worn on the body

              In the case where the phone is
              worn directly on the body, the highest tested SAR value is
              1.30 W/kg (10g)*

                      http://www-support-downloads.sonymobile.com/st21/sar_ST21_1.pdf

                      yes it is from OFFICIAL SONY WEBSITE and you will get this pdf in printed form in your manual inside the phone read it . it says clearly it has 1.62 w/kg in 10 different languages. this is for st2i , whereas st21a is for american version . difeerence is of i and a . international and america. Their radios are different and hence they use different materials in phone. hence there are 2 models of this phone

I just said that the stock in the US is according to their rules, so maybe the next stock in India will be according to the new Indian rules. Why are u fighting dude? You are referring to page 109 which has info for US and canada. just find '1.62' in that file. then you will see that in the other countries where the limit is 2, the SAR value of the handset has been found to be 1.62(maximum) at the ears. read page 117 where the info is specified for south america. and flipkart in India says that it is 1.62. Go and fight with flipkart. I'll not reply to any of your comments now.

                                  galaxy chat and galaxy y 2 will have same cpu 850 mhz broadcom cortex a9 , but it will have the worst support for games, you still have to root and install chainfire 3d and use pluguins and etc.

                                  by the way that 1.27 w/kg sar value is for american version not international version as usa have different radios and network
