2.Circuit Switching was originally designed for voice communication whereas, Packet Switching was originally designed for data communication.

3.Circuit Switching is inflexible as once a path is established for transmission, it doesn’t change while the duration of the session. On the other hand, Packet Switching is flexible as each packet may travel through a different route to reach its destination.
