1. A method of a wireless communication device operating in a wireless communication network for managing power consumption of the wireless communication device, wherein the wireless communication device is configured to operate according to first, second and third operational states for communication with a network node associated with the communication network said method performed by the wireless communication device, comprising:
receiving from the network node an instruction to transit to a decided operational state when leaving the first operational state, the decided operational state being one of the second or third operational state;
obtaining information of a first network configuration applied by the network node for the second operational state and information of a second network configuration applied by the network node for the third operational state;
determining to operate according to the second operational state or the third operational state based on the obtained information;
determining whether to transition to the decided operational state received from the network node or the determined operational state when leaving the first operational state;
transitioning to the determined operational state when leaving the first operational state regardless of the decided operational state; and
determining to operate according second or third operational state based on determining a delete frequency for when the network node deletes data context associated with the wireless communication device when the wireless communication device operates in the second operational state.
