Do you shut down your cell phone when you sleep at night?

no, i don't shutdown my cellphone, it's bother me when i off my cellphone, due to the following disadvantages, what if there's an emergency call? what if your friend need your help or what if someone is calling you for a help. I don't want to be bother by my conscience especially. I'm aware that the radiation of the cellphone can harm our health, but look. Don't let the cellphone stay in your side, give allowance..put your cellphone in the divider or cabinet then make level five (5) as your setting so that you will surely hear the ringtone of your cellphone if there's someone sending you a message or giving a call.

Surely, health is only a problem when you are transmitting - in other words when you are talking to someone on the phone. That is also when you are holding the handset to your ear and so right next to your brain.

If you placed your mobile by your bed I don't think it would harm you. The biggest irritation would be if it took a call in the middle of the night and woke you up!

Hi there! I don't switch off my mobile phone at night time or when I'm going to sleep. I'm not in my home country at the moment so its important for me to leave my phone on 24/7. And I use my mobile phone also as my alarm clock.
I think its up to you whether you like to keep your phone on or off, but the good thing having your phone on is when its emergency call and they can easily reach you! I guess if its wasn't important they won't call you anyway. But sometimes the problem of having our phone on when we're sleeping is getting a wrong number call, specially when can't go back to sleep easily. Thanks!

For what it's worth, I never shut off my phone. Also, I have never really considered the option of turning it off.

Aside for using its alarm feature (LOL), I keep it on because of - as you've mentioned - for emergencies or just for being there to answer a mundane call from a friend which just happens to be in the middle of the night, etc.

I place my phone on my bedside table, by the way, so it's not close to my head while I'm sleeping. I think you could do that if you don't want to turn it off so as to limit your risks for cellphone radiation.:)

I always switch off my cell phone when I go to sleep. I have never had a problem with that.

i understand you completely. i am a very light sleeper so i get up each time there's a text or call...but i cant seem to turn it off for the same reason as yours, i'd like to be reached for urgent matters...so i leave it on, just in case...

i also agree you will shut down your cell phone while you sleeping because its radiation are harmfull for our heart and our health

I don't turn off my cellphone at night so the office or my relatives can reach me anytime there's an emergency situation.

I haven't tried to turn off my phone at night. Sometimes the phone shut off immediately (because sometimes it's almost low bat and I am tired to charge it at night). I think it's very important that your phone is ready in terms of emergency. I don't really mind if someone is calline me in the middle of the night.

I dont turn off my cellphone when I sleep at night. I might miss an emergency call. There's not a minute a turn my phone off. It just happens when I got empty battery.
