That's not necessarily a stupid question... My cousin and I both cannot use Bluetooth devices. When I first got my T616 I would connect to her phone to xfer pics and such but we would have to shut off the Bluetooth quickly becuase we both would get a feeling of vertigo and headaches. I know it sounds strange, but it happens, so that customer may have a valid point.

It is true that some people experience headaches, dizzines, and vertigo when using cell phones. I'm not sure if the difference between a GSM signal and a TDMA signal would make a difference though. The way I understand it is that the radio waves themselves, being transmitted so close to the head is one cause, frequency being another cause. But I don't see what difference the type of signal would make. This person might wanna try using a BT headset, the lower frequency has been said to help aleviate this problem in some, although it does the same thing to others.

the brain is still one big mystery wrapped up in an enigma and thrown into a basket of I don't know as far as medecine is concerned.

I can't believe anyone would actually buy that crap. If a cell phone(of ANY kind) were to cause nausea or headaches in EVEN ONE PERSON, then the fcc would have eliminated them a long time ago. Not to mention everything ELSE that uses RADIO SIGNALS. It's right up there with myths that cell phones can cause explosions while filling up your gas tank or that cell phones cause brain cancer. If you are the type of person that actually gets ill from radio signals, then I am sorry but you are too weak to live. Natural Selection. Do us all a favor and use your phone repeatedly until you croak so the human race doesn't have to be infected with your weak dna.

Wow. The first girl VZWMan ever heard say "douchebag" is saying someone is using abrasive dialogue. That's bad. Real bad. 🤣

And before you call me one, I'm just joking around. 😉
