Electromagnetic waves are radiation, yes.

[–] Earthwormjim91 4 points 1 year ago

Sure. All EM waves are radiation, including visible light.

Non ionizing radiation isn’t an issue though so nobody uses “radiation” for it. When you say “radiation” that’s pretty much always talking about ionizing radiation from radioactive sources.

The iPhone does not emit any ionizing radiation.
