Without inundating me with conspiracy theories, what is the actual engineering and scientific story about 5G? My wife and I are looking at new phones and they are 5G. Techno nerds of GAW, what is the story?

Massively higher data rates to a phone must have massively higher frequencies of signal to that phone to sustain that data rate. Unavoidable. So with every new iteration of tech and the transmitters, the signals are more energetic, since the energy of each increases with frequency.
I commented a bit with the frequency info on a p.w thread recently here.. pretty sure I was responding to a troll but the comment was to benefit others in the thread.

The freq range of the signal is dynamic and will scale up or down as the environmentals allow. Basically if you are in a dense metro area with lots of towers, you will cop the highest potential risks but your phone will have large throughput of data.
On the other hand, if you are in a rural area with isolated towers, it throttles right down in freq since those signals carry much further and dont get prone to disruption as much.. worse data rate but not as risky.

Regardless of where you live, I'd go for whatever hands-free type kits are available since you dont want them in proximity to areas like your brain as much as you can avoid it being so.
