I doubt that audio quality is the real reason why people use cellphones to make voice calls. Convenience seems like a much more plausible explanation.
- I_Am_Nous 3y agoConvenience is one thing, but as the call passes through multiple layers of compression it does lose quality. Making a POTS call to a local business through the same exchange, yeah POTS might sound better than VOIP. Calling someone across the country? It's just gonna sound like crap.
- MarkusWandel 3y agoAudio quality should be just fine if you get end-to-end VoLTE. My phone has been on VoLTE for quite some time, I really should test with someone else who also is.
