Save on data roaming costs
You can cut data roaming costs and save on your phone bills by changing mobile data settings. Data
roaming means using your phone to receive data over networks that your network service provider
doesn't own or operate. Connecting to the internet when roaming, especially when abroad, can raise
data costs substantially. Your network service provider can charge you a fixed fee for data transfer
or on a pay-as-you-use basis. To use the optimal connection method, change the Wi-Fi, mobile data,
and email download settings.
Using a Wi-Fi connection is generally faster and less expensive than using a mobile data connection.
If both Wi-Fi and mobile data connections are available, your phone uses the Wi-Fi connection.
