Thanks very helpful, especially coming from someone else that was using the S7 and pretty much seals the deal for me. | |||

Ignored facts still exist |
Um, no. . | |||

Dang Amazon has some good deals on Samsung unlocked phones today from Samsung and shipped by Amazon but they don't specify "version" which means there is risk it might not work well on ATT network. A52 5G for $399 and S20 FE 5G for $549. https://www.amazon.com/Samsung...st_sto_dp&th=1&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/Samsung...ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1 | |||

Research Into 5G Health Risks Most government organizations and, not surprisingly, tech companies, advise that there is little-to-no reason to worry about potential 5G health risks. They claim that radiofrequency radiation is nonionizing, so it doesn’t have enough energy to break apart DNA and cause cellular changes that lead to cancer and other diseases. (In contrast, ionizing radiation, such as that from CT scans and, more dramatically, nuclear disasters like Chernobyl, is far more dangerous and has been definitively proven to increase cancer risk with high exposure.) But some research into the health risks of earlier wireless technologies—and electropollution in general—shows otherwise. In 2011, the International Agency for Research on Cancer reviewed all the published literature to date on radiofrequency radiation and categorized it as a possible carcinogen. Since that time, a broad range of adverse health effects have been associated with exposure. Some of them include schwannomas (tumors in the tissues that cover nerves), brain and eye cancers, DNA damage, and infertility in men. Children are particularly at risk, as their thin skulls allow the brain to absorb more radiation than an adult brain.1 In one rat study released in 2018 by the National Toxicology Program, researchers concluded that there is “clear evidence that male rats exposed to high levels of radio frequency radiation (RFR) like that used in 2G and 3G cell phones developed cancerous heart tumors… There was also some evidence of tumors in the brain and adrenal gland of exposed male rats.”2 Another 2018 study had similar findings. Researchers noted a significant increase in heart tumors in rats exposed to the highest doses of radiofrequency radiation.3 When it comes to 5G health concerns, though, the most important thing to remember is this: The technology is still too young to have any significant or meaningful research behind it, and neither the wireless industry nor the government agencies who regulate it have supported ANY independent research on the potential health risks associated with 5G technology. During a Congressional hearing in 2019, CT Senator Richard Blumenthal brought the lack of safety testing to light and concluded, “So there really is no research ongoing. We’re flying blind here, as far as health and safety is concerned.”4 All outrage about this aside, we won’t know any of the true 5G health risks for decades to come…We, the public, are being unwittingly recruited as human guinea pigs in this worldwide experiment! The authors of a recent study on the rollout of 5G said it best: “Because this is the first generation to have cradle-to-grave lifespan exposure to this level of man-made microwave (RF EMR) radiofrequencies, it will be years or decades before the true health consequences are known. Precaution in the roll out of this new technology is strongly indicated.”5 Minimize Your Exposure to 5G Radiation 5G is slowly but surely rolling out across the country and globe. By the end of 2020, it will be hard to fully prevent exposure. But you have to do what you can, and even small steps can bring significant protection. Here are some things you can do: Change the way you use your 5G-enabled devices. Keep your devices as far away from your body as possible. Don’t carry your phone in your pocket. A purse is better, but for best protection, consider buying an electromagnetic frequency (EMF) shielding case to house your phone. (These can be purchased online from various retailers. At night, keep your devices far away from your bedside—preferably in another room, but at the very least on the other side of your bedroom. Or, simply power them off fully every evening and turn them back on in the morning. For calls, use the speakerphone function instead of placing your phone against your ear. For simple, straightforward communications, send text messages. Place routers in little-used rooms that don’t get a lot of traffic. Note that, while increasing distance between yourself and your electronics/routers won’t eliminate your exposure to radiofrequency radiation, it will help reduce the risks associated with prolonged use. Practicing grounding. Also called earthing, grounding is the practice of reconnecting with the Earth’s subtle and natural electrical energy. This is easily accomplished by walking barefoot in the grass or sand, so that the energy of the Earth flows directly into your body and brings you back to your most natural electrical state. Do this every day, as the weather permits. Research has shown that when the body is grounded, “its electrical potential becomes equalized with the Earth’s electrical potential through a transfer of electrons from the Earth to the body.” This helps lower radiofrequency radiation and 5G health concerns.6 And generally speaking, grounding keeps your metabolism and your capacity for healing and recuperation at maximum efficiency. https://heartmdinstitute.com/d...emf/5g-health-risks/ 41 | |||

This is excellent advice. The 5a is a terrific phone that will do everything you do and then some. It's also got a terrific camera. I have a Samsung S20 FE because I got it on a deal for $499. For that money its a terrific phone. One last thing even though you said you wanted to stay with AT&T. Are you paying less than $17/line/month? If not, you could. I jumped from T-Mobile GSM to Mint Mobile GSM (which uses the T-Mobile network) last year and never noticed a bit of difference in service. I have however enjoyed quite a bit of savings. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns. And several dogs, because a man with a cat is a woman. Kurt Schlichter | |||

Well I ordered the unlocked Samsung S20 FE 5G US version with warranty from Amazon that had it for $549 Black Friday sale. NIB from Samsung Store sold and shipped by Amazon with free return for any reason so a pretty low risk buy in case there is a problem but I was able to verify it will work with ATT network after 3G shutdown. For only $50 more than what I was originally going to spend for the A52 5G, I could not pass it buy. Actual item number is SM-G781UZBMXAA which is exactly same as the one sold at Best Buy and Samsung website. https://www.amazon.com/Samsung...id=1637970726&sr=8-3 Now I can take the $35 free phone ATT sent me back to them and say thank, but no thanks. | |||
