I woul't definitely but my handphone below my pillow while i sleeping just because of the privacy. While many people say put the handphone as far as you can from your bed while sleeping, cause it contain a handful of radiation from your handphone. i will more scare to put my handphone below my pillow while i sleeping. If i put my handphone below my pillow while i am sleeping in my bed, i think it would't do any hamful to my health too, no i no using any other special handphone, is because i never switch on my handphone at my sleeping time. If talking about privacy of your handphone, nowdays many handphone can set a password to protect your handphone from seeing the all the files in the inbox so put your handphone in below pillow because of the privacy this day no happening anymore.

i keep it under my pillow just because i use it as a alarm for waking me up in the morning i generally switch the phone off because its not good to place the phone with strong signals near our brain

I see your reason, however I guess it's quite a bit unhealthy being so close to a mobile phone all the time. Personally I wouldn't do that. For example put your phone close to a TV, then make it ring or send a message and see what happens to a TV. I agree the need for privacy is very important, but please try not to be attached to a cell phone so much!

I used to keep my celphone close to me all the time but not anymore because Im no longer working hehe.
I only receive text messages from my sister and most of the time im the one who initiates the exchange.
The most common place I put it is also under my pillow -coz I can hear it right away

I usually would hide my mobile below my pillow because my cousin would read the messages and I would often end up being teased the following morning. I just do not want my cellphone to be touched.

I usually get calls and messages from my dear stingy friends who calls me after 10 because of the call rates reduced then.. lol and sometimes my absent minded friends would message me to bring something at the midnight say if im absent yesterday when i call them up they will forget to inform about the tests tommorow.. midnight they will send message saying tommorow i have got slip test or something .. and i used to keep alarm while sleeping.. so i feel more comfortable when my cell is with me.. yes even y naughty bro opens the messages and all.. i would get caught mostly because of him so i always lock it with security code and keep it away from him..

Right now me and my fiance do not have a cell phone because our old one got run over by a big truck so it does not work anymore,but when it did work we always keep it near the refrigerator because that was where it stayed to charge or just wait until we went out somewhere,because we never had it on unless we were going out because since we have a house phone we do not need the cell phone to call people,and neither of us really ever text anyone.

i keep my beside me while sleeping . many say that u shouldn't keep ur mobile below ur pillow bcoz the rays from it are harmful to our brain. so try to keep it beside u
when u want privary put a security lock in ur phone so that others cant ur messages. always see ur health first. i never put it for charge during night.. i keep alarms in my phone to wake up. it has become my habit

Well, I used to do this until a couple of months ago when I read an e-mail saying that sleeping with your cellphone under your pillow or next to you isn't really healthy. I even saw a video wherein the collective radiation of a couple of phones ringing within close vicinity of each other were actually able to pop a kernel of popcorn or two. So yeah... Now, I simply just leave my phone on my desk. It actually helps getting me to wake up in the morning since I'd have to get up to put it off when the alarm goes of. =)

I do, but it's because of my alarm on my phone. That way I can wake up in the mornings! :D
