GPRS

GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is a technology that allows mobile phones and devices to send and receive data over cellular networks efficiently. It enables services like internet browsing, emails, and multimedia messaging by breaking data into small packets that are transmitted via the network. Unlike traditional calls or texts, GPRS provides a continuous internet connection, much like a basic version of broadband on your phone. It is considered a "2.5G" technology, bridging the gap between earlier 2G networks and faster 3G setups, making mobile data use more accessible and cost-effective.
