Note: Sending data in HSCSD mode may drain the phone’s battery faster than
normal voice or data calls, as the phone may send data more frequently to the
network.
Packet data (General Packet Radio Service, GPRS)
Glossary: Packet data, or General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), uses packet data
technology where information is sent in short bursts of data over the mobile
network. The benefit of sending data in packets is that the network is occupied
only when sending or receiving data. Because GPRS uses the network efficiently,
it allows for quick data connection set up and fast data transmission speeds.
