5 Are Cell Phones Dangerous? Recent research indicates that microwaves from mobile phones can affect parts of your brain – after all you are holding a transmitter to your head. Other research is inconclusive, although there is a feeling among scientists that you are more vulnerable of brain damage from cell phone use when you are young and your brain is still growing.
