I recently tried reducing my mobile data usage by changing mobile data quality from “HQ” to “Basic”.But surprisingly my data usage actually increased (to about 500MB per hour) instead! I decided to research (*) this issue by starting “Flow” and skipping to the next song 4 times under different mobile data quality settings and measuring mobile data usage after each song skip.These are my findings:Basic: 27.5MB per song on average (38, 26, 21, 25)Standard: 5MB per song on average (8, 3, 2, 7)HQ: 12MB per song on average (15, 8, 17, 8)High Fidelity: 54.7MB per song on average (57, 61, 36, 65) It seems like “Basic” is actually “HQ”, “HQ” is actually “Standard” and “Standard” is actually “Basic”.And it seems to be a re-occurring issue because 3 other threads were created about similar issues before (but all 3 got closed without resolution so I created a new one instead) *) I re-installed the Deezer app and cleared the song cache before performing my test.
