There was a time when I wouldn’t even consider a cell phone until Bluetooth earpieces were more available. I don’t like the idea of holding a radio-frequency-emitting device as powerful as a cell phone up to the side of my head for any length of time.

And while Bluetooth is still a radio-frequency device, it is very low power, so conceivably safer and less potentially ionizing.

That’s one of the reasons why I didn’t own a cell phone until 2003. Since that time, I’ve owned a few cell phones and not a few Bluetooth earpieces (they don’t usually last very long).
