    3G or "third generation" is terminology used mainly by marketing and sales departments within carriers to describe the rate that information can be down loaded /uploaded from your mobile handset. (cell phone).

    Mobile phone use either GSM or CDMA technology and both are just as good as each other.
    If you want a cell phone just to talk (“Voice Transmission”), then 2G or 3G is fine to use. However if you want a cell phone to send and receive photos and down load e-mails (“Data transmission”) then you need greater speeds of down load to gain the benefits.
    3G is sort of like ADSL broadband compared to dial up for internet.

    - Hope this helps
