Since wired headphones are safer than bluetooth headphones, Apple should offer to people who cares about their health, the good ol’ headphone output.

Since bluetooth headset emit radiation

Bluetooth radio frequencies are non-ionizing so have little or no effect on the body. You have more danger from being in the sun unprotected than from your electronic devices.
The cellular antenna transmitting to towers is more hazardous than BTLE. The wifi in your home is more hazardous than BTLE.
And when 5G rolls out, it'll be even worse than either of those. BTLE is at the bottom of the list for radiation worries.
If you don't want to be near low levels of radiation, don't use a cell phone and live out in the country — and above all else, stay out of the sun. And whatever you do, never get an X-ray/CT scan.

The headphone jack is dead. Apple buried it with the iPhone X and it's not coming back. No matter how many threads get started here on MacRumors about bringing it back, no matter the reason - Apple is not bringing it back.
hmm... (quick read of my old physics book) Even that speaker/headset is emitting radiation.
Be extremely careful when using. The 6-foot distancing likely applies to radiating devices, too.
If you can touch those headphones, you are too close.
There's lots of **-danger-** in your daily life.
Stay in bed (non-permeable mattress cover, of course) with the lights off.

Well i'm a done for then I'm currently sat in my office WiFi at 5Ghz, Airpod pro's in and my iPhone sat on desk as well.... I'm surprised i'm not glowing with all this harmful radiation!!!! that's currently being pumped into my body & brain.
Can you see my eyes right now? No one can because they are rolled so far back in my head!
This radiation thing has been beat to death. It’s meaningless. By the time real info is available on it, most of us will be dead from old age.
Let’s move on to something important,
Bulk bubble-wrap available from Amazon
Tinfoil available in aisle 9
I just can’t take this ridiculousness any more.
Taking a long break from reading (or commenting) on MR.
I thought wired headphones were worst for when on a call? Since the wires effectively become the antenna.
