VoLTE (Voice over long term evolution) and VoWifi (Voice over Wifi) are standard wireless communication that allow your phone to access higher bandwidth network for high-quality calls. They ensure crisp voice quality and enhanced signal for better communication because they continue using 4G network instead of switching to 3G/2G during calls. These technologies are also very smart. Carriers have ensured that these settings can distinguish between a voice call and internet data usage so you’re phone bills will be significantly reduced as well.
Devices have to be certified to enjoy by network operators to access VoLTE and VoWifi as an option. Which is probably why the Samsung and Huawei counterparts are using this technology where OnePlus 7 Pro users are stuck using 3G data and the device’s Wifi. Unfortunately, OnePlus phones, in general, don’t come with this technology from the box. This support is not enabled by carriers in this phone despite the fact that these phones are available with many of them.
