It's not easy to test this type of exposure in humans, so the scientists did it in mice Study is here https://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/results/areas/cellphones/index.html …

It's also worth remembering that this radiation was the type used in 2G and 3G services, so it may not even apply to current phone technology!

When we look at human studies, we see no link between cellphones and cancer at all

Do phones cause cancer? It's very, very unlikely. Unless you spend your day bathing in them, you would be unlikely to get even a fraction of the dose of these rats

Can radiation that is produced by phones cause cancer? That's a different question. Probably, in high enough doses, but even unregulated phones would be unlikely to give you a high enough dose

It's also worth remembering that this study doesn't speak at all to the MAGNITUDE of the risk This is a very important point

Would it change anything if mobile phone radiation caused a minute increase in the risk of an already rare cancer? Maybe? Probably? It's a hard question
