based  on  standards  that  were  developed  by  independent  scientific  organizations  through 

periodic  and  thorough  evaluation  of  scientific  studies.  The  exposure  standard  for  wireless 

devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The 

SAR limit recommended by The Council of the European Union is 2.0W/kg

*

. Tests for SAR 

are conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest 

certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the 

highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well 

below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power 

levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are 

to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for this smartphone when tested for use at the ear is:

Smartphone

SAR (W/kg) for 10 g (RED) 

BlackBerry® KEYone (BBB100-2)

GSM 900 + Wi-Fi

0.77

The highest SAR value for this smartphone when tested at a distance of 0.20 inch (5 mm) 

from the body is:

Smartphone

SAR (W/kg) for 10 g (RED) 

BlackBerry® KEYone (BBB100-2)

UMTS 2100 + Wi-Fi

1.61

Body-worn  measurements  (recommended  separation  distances)  differ  among  wireless 

devices,  including  smartphones,  depending  upon  supplied  or  available  accessories  and 

applicable The Council of the European Union requirements.

EU regulatory conformance

The manufacturer hereby declares that this smartphone is in compliance with the essential 

requirements and other relevant provisions of Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU.
The full text of the EU declaration of conformity is available at the following internet address:

.

The  description  of  accessories  and  components,  including  software,  which  allow  the  radio 

equipment to operate as intended, can be obtained in the full text of the EU declaration of 

conformity at the following internet address:

.

If you have a Wi-Fi enabled smartphone, your smartphone may be operated on Wi-Fi networks 

in all European Union member countries. 
The Official Journal of the European Union Commission Decision of 12 February 2007 states 

that in the frequency band 5.150 to 5.350 GHz, wireless access systems (WAS), including 

radio local area networks (RLANs), shall be restricted to indoor use.

Product information

Mechanical properties:

•  Weight: approximately 6.35 oz (180 g) including lithium-ion battery

•  Size (L x W x H): 5.88 x 2.85 x 0.37 in. (149.3 x 72.5 x 9.42 mm)

•  4-GB memory, 64-GB application storage, microSD card slot

*  In Europe, the SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public is 2.0W/kg averaged over 10 

g of tissue for the body or head (4.0W/kg averaged over 10 g of tissue for the extremities 

-  hands,  wrists,  ankles,  and  feet).  Studies  suggest  that  the  standard  incorporates  a 

substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for 

any variations in measurements.
