Calling Experience
When you use your phone on other PCS CDMA networks,
your calling experience and call quality will be quite similar
to what you experience when making calls from within the
Sprint PCS Network. Although certain calling features may
not be available, your phone calls are still private and secure.
When you use your phone on analog cellular networks, your
experience will be different. Cellular roaming will be similar
to the quality provided by conventional analog cellular
carriers today. Although you will still have the convenience
of being able to make and receive calls, here are some
differences you can expect:
• You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk,
fade-out and dropped calls.
• Some calling features (such as Caller ID and voicemail
message indicator) that are standard within the
Sprint PCS Network may not be available.
• You will experience the same security and privacy risks
(eavesdropping and cloning) that exist with
conventional analog cellular services today.
• Battery life will be shorter when you use your phone for
cellular roaming than when you use it on a PCS CDMA
network.
