Q: What are the outstanding advantages of GPRS?
A: The three outstanding advantages are:
(1) high-speed data transmission
The speed is 10 times that of GSM, which can meet your ideal needs and can stably transmit large-capacity and high-quality audio and video files, which is an extraordinary great progress.
(2) Always online
Because it takes almost no time to establish a new connection (that is, there is no need to establish a call connection for each data access), you can keep in touch with the network at any time. For example, without GPRS support, when you are roaming on the Internet, there is a telephone access at this time. In most cases, you can't connect the phone after the call, and then dial the Internet again. This is really a very annoying thing for most people. With GPRS, you can easily solve this conflict.
(3) Only charge according to data flow.
That is to say, you will charge according to the amount of data you transmit (such as when downloading information online), not according to the online time. In other words, as long as you don't transmit data, you don't have to pay even if you are always "online". For example, using GSM+WAP mobile phone to surf the Internet is just like charging when the mobile phone is connected; It is much more reasonable to use GPRE+WAP to surf the Internet, just like there is no charge for telephone connection, which is only charged when talking. In short, it truly embodies the principle of using less and paying less.
