This module uses the sim900 chip that supports Quad-Band 850/900 1800/1900 MHz. It has a low power consumption at around 1.5mA in sleep mode and can be supplied with 3.1v to 4.8v power.
You can do what a regular cellphone could do, like sending/receiving an SMS, making/taking a call, connecting to GPRS(data) for internet usage. This module is also ideal if you want to create your DIY cellphone.
This module is a GPRS Class B meaning it could only do one service (GPS/GPRS) at a time. To elaborate, you could receive/make calls, or send/receive an SMS during a GPRS connection but the
GPRS service is suspended and resume once done with call/SMS.
