That isn't true at all. Most US networks, and may others globally support VoLTE. The difference in sound quality is remarkable, to the point of being unnerving

That isn't true at all. Most US networks, and may others globally support VoLTE. The difference in sound quality is remarkable, to the point of being unnerving at first.

- StavrosK 9y agoDo both devices have to support it? What do I need to do to enable and try it, if my network supports it?
- toast0 9y agoIn order to make an end-to-end VoLTE call, everything needs to support it and have it enabled: the handsets, the network(s), call handling equipment, interconnections between networks, etc. You can tell if your handset and network are enabled by making a call while on LTE; if your network indicator drops LTE when you make the call, it's not supported and enabled. Most carriers have a help page with a list of supported devices and how to enable it. I don't know if there's any good indicators that you have an end-to-end enabled call, unless you can tell from the sound quality.
- StavrosK 9y agoI see, thank you. I have two new Xiaomi phones that do list VoLTE in the options, so I'll try calling one from the other and seeing if it works.
- bdonlan 9y agoIsn't it still possible to make a low-audio-quality call over the LTE _network_ (i.e. showing LTE when you make a call) due to negotiating down to older codecs if one of the other elements of the connection doesn't support higher-quality codecs?
