VoLTE and Wifi Calling on Zenfone 8

[lukasz_szabelsk]

Hi all,
Does anyone know if we can expect enabling VoLTE and Wifi Calling in european networks? I can only see in settings that icons for these options are available to enable at notification bar:


Also as call quality is quite poor, can we expect some improvement with software updates as enabling HD Voice codecs?
Best,
Lukasz

In this case i would like to swap carrier, if they have working settings, but banning users phones anyway.

Believe me that there are cases when for some reasons users won't change their operator 😉 For now I have two workarounds if I need to use WiFi Calling: 1. buy DT Poland sim with prepaid and insert it into SIM2slot - use only when wificalling needed. 2. Don't get rid off my old LG G7 and use it when WiFiCalling needed. In two years I'll get rid off ZF8 and my problems will be fully resolved 😉

Is VoLte that much better than HD voice? I get that before HD voice was enabled, it was really huge difference, but now we have it and call quality is very good.
But i get it that some do not have good reception and need to use VoWifi for calls.

There's no big difference between HD Voice vs VoLTE in qudio quality. The only thing is that 3G support by carriers will be dropped in about 3-4 years. But i think that since then they all should enable 4G calling like 3G today - just out of the box.

It's also possible that when operators like Orange PL will turn off their 3G in few years, Asus ZF8 users will be dropped from 4G to 2G when calling and HD Voice won't work there anymore 🙂
