Automatic will guarantee you have coverage in the Americas (850/1900) or elsewhere (900/1800) without user intervention. Choosing 850/1900 or 900/1800 (depending on which is appropriate for your locale) may let the phone ready to make a call a few seconds sooner after power-up, since it is not searching frequencies where there are no towers.

Posts: n/a Re: Question about network bands My phone (a v3) was set to automatic but when I went to Europe a fewweeks ago I had to change it to 900/1800 to find a network. I then changed it back to Automatic and it still found the networks. When I'm in the US, which is 99.9% of the time, I just leave it on 850/1900 since those are the only US frequencies.
