If you can’t carry your phone in your pocket without worrying about adverse health effects, then you obviously shouldn’t be carrying your phone in your pocket at all. On the contrary, the potential dangers of carrying a phone in your pocket have been covered (in some capacity) by TIME, CNN, Men’s Health, and plenty of other well-known media brands. Women’s Health isn’t the only publication issuing those kinds of warnings, either. Women’s Health responded to the story by warning readers to use headsets when making phone calls, avoid cell phone usage in moving vehicles, and yes, keep phones out of their pockets. The resident theorized that, based on the locations of the tumors, both had been caused by his cell phone. The first tumor had been in his left hand the second had been right above his left ear. At the time, the city of Pembroke Pines had recently passed a resolution “warning citizens that radiation from cell phones might cause cancer.” The resolution was passed thanks to a local resident who had undergone procedures to remove two cancerous tumors from his body. However, there have been enough horror stories to give cell phone users pause about how they use, carry, and store their phones on a daily basis.įor instance, in 2012, Women’s Health covered the story of Pembroke Pines, a city located in southern Florida. There still hasn’t been enough research to establish an undisputed cause-and-effect relationship between cell phone radiation and cancer.
Instead, Apple says that its phones are intended to be carried in holsters or belt clips, to reduce radiation exposure. Pockets don’t provide that kind of distance-even if an iPhone is contained in a fairly thick and sturdy case. Indeed, over the years, Apple has included warnings in their iPhone instruction manuals, indicating that phones should be kept 10 or 15 millimeters away from the body at all times. Instead, it had to do with radiation exposure. That warning had nothing to do with bendy phones, either.
As Newsweek noted in a response article, however, Apple had already warned iPhone users not to carry your cell phone in your pocket. In autumn 2014, though, the enthusiasm over the brand’s then-just-released iPhone 6 was tempered somewhat by complaints from some owners that the phone was bending in their pockets.
Every fall, Apple unveils a new version of its flagship iPhone life, always to huge fanfare and record-breaking sales records.
