Answer 2

Cell phones these days are much better at the minimum output in power. They typically put out less than 1/2 watt. Further, some companies choose technology that "spreads" the signal out so that power is even managed better, another benefit for the consumer. Studies show that people living near power lines (which operate at very low frequencies ~60 Hz) are very susceptible whereas cellular technology is typically at 8,000,000Hz or 1,900,000,000Hz range. The main difference is power output and just know that networks have major pre-amplification circuitry that "pulls" in the signal where it can, to minimize your exposure and improve call quality. Hope that helps you understand better...
