\nWorking in alignment with the GSMA\u2019s Network Settings Exchange (NSX) and Interoperability Testing services, Samsung is helping to enable consistent and reliable voice services across a wide range of operators and regions by default. All Samsung devices using Android 15 or above, including the recently launched Galaxy S25 series, are being equipped to access high-quality VoLTE where supported, using operator-defined IMS settings via NSX or defaulting to GSMA Profile #4 when necessary.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
This means you shouldn\u2019t have to hunt for VoLTE in your Samsung phone settings \u2014 the feature should simply be enabled by default. So why is this a big deal in the first place?<\/p>\n
Well, there are a number of reasons why you\u2019d want to route voice calls over LTE. For starters, phones without VoLTE enabled route their phone calls over 3G networks. However, many carriers are in the process of shutting down their 3G networks. In fact, AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile have already shut down their 3G networks. So you\u2019ll need VoLTE if you still want to make and receive conventional phone calls.<\/p>\n
Another reason to want VoLTE enabled on your phone is that it lets you simultaneously make calls and use data. Furthermore, the technology supports lower latencies and higher call quality thanks to the HD Voice codec.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s worth noting that virtually all Samsung phones released in the last decade or so support VoLTE. However, you\u2019ll need to dive into the settings menu to activate the feature. Furthermore, some Galaxy owners (myself included) have reported that this feature isn\u2019t accessible on their phones, presumably due to carrier issues or a regional problem Nevertheless, this move should simplify things for most Samsung owners.<\/p>\n
