You can forget about SAR as a health risk since the frequencies of cellphones are too low to be ionizing, BUT it has been proven that phones with higher SAR values have better signal, so just go for the highest SAR value, if the SAR is very low then expect the phone to have a poor signal quality when far away from the mast.

      Phone cannot be marketed if it is not within the FCC acceptable values, in the US the maximum SAR value is 1.6 watts per kilogram of human tissues, and some other localities have 2. The phone specified SAR value is the maximum radio frequency that the phone can emit, only in times that the phone is too far from the cell site or from which antenna its getting the signal. The Frequency referred as SAR is your phones strength to get signal even if it is very far from your operator's transmitter. So, if you are in a highly developed locality where cell sites are just located everywhere, forget about SAR.

            Fantastic phone! Best choice for those who doesn't want huge screen but need high end power. Battery is also very good. It is just amazing and worth every cent I paid for it

                  AnonD-279135, 07 Aug 2014Hi LG G2 or Z1 Compact?If you care about your brain at all, don't get the Z1 Compact. The extremely high SAR value made me return it after trying to use it for an hour. (Now, 4 hours later, I'm still not able to think clearly, thanks to the radiation.)
                  If contemporary studies are to be trusted, buying this phone is like saying "please give me brain tumours ASAP".
                  Other than that, the interface is kinda nice, what little I got to see before I had to turn it off. And, of course, the possibility to taking pictures under water is golden. (Which is why I bought it to begin with.)
                  LG seems to have much better SAR values. MUCH better. (Actually, ANY phone seems to have much better SAR values.)
                  My next buy will be a LG.

It only shows resolution - 20.7(4:3 - 5248x3936), 15.5(16:9 - 5248x2952), 8(4:3 - 3264x2448), 8(16:9 - 3840x2160), 3(4:3 - 2048x1536), 2(16:9 - 1920x1080).
                      File type is JPG.
                      Photo comparison between 20.7 and 8:
                      Photo sharpness » 8MP. It shows greater details over the 20.7MP.
                      Colour saturation » 20.7MP. It saturate the colour giving you a 'wow' look
                      Colour accuracy » 8MP. Not saturating the colour. Just the right colour.
                      Size » 8MP is 2.4 - 3.1mb. 20.7 is 4.8 - 6mb.
                      Option » 8MP. More options to play. Superior auto and HDR is available.

                      Thats my answer. Thanks for your reasonable question.

                      I also need your help of how do I get notified by anyone reply my opinion in gsmarena. That's why I reply late.

                          I bought Z1 compact in the month of March which i could hardly use because of the camera problems and software problem... such a worst experience from Sony for the first time in my life...

                          Camera Problem : no 20 mp clarity for photos.
                          Software problem: after updating android version to 4.4.4 each restart is giving me duplication of album with smudged copies.

                          Worst experience with the support team and services on this due to which my issue is not yet fixed. Y can't sony refund me if they are unable to fix my issue..???
