BlackBerry Curve 8980 Connectivity and Communication

Connectivity and Communication

Supporting GSM 2G networks, the Curve 8980 enabled basic mobile services including GPRS and EDGE for data connectivity. While limited to older network standards, the Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n support ensured that users could connect to wireless networks for faster internet access. Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP allowed wireless audio streaming, and the inclusion of GPS and A-GPS was beneficial for navigation services. However, the device lacks a radio, which could be a disadvantage for users who relied on this feature.
