Galaxy S"According to Renesas and Smartvisionlights, less than 10 seconds of visual exposure to near IR is classified as low risk. For the IR-LED in your phone to cause immediate damage to your eye, you would have to hold it 1mm away from your eye for 17 unbroken minutes. It isn’t possible to do this with a Galaxy or iPhone X, as both products limit IR exposures to 10 seconds, and they won’t emit IR light unless the device is 20cm from your head."
If you are concerned about long term effects, there isn't enough data unfortunately.
