What does VoLTE mean?

VoLTE (Voice Over Long-Term Evolution) is a technology that allows voice calls to be made using the LTE, WIFI and 5G network. However, the VoLTE network only works if you have a phone that supports it, a compatible SIM card and a 4G LTE network. In case the 4G network is not available, your phone will automatically switch to 2G/3G to make sure you stay connected to the call and data.

Roles & Responsibilities

• VoLTE is an upgrade made to the already existing cellular data communication system, i.e., LTE. Here’s how VoLTE surpasses LTE:
• VoLTE provides HD quality calls.
• Unlike LTE, VoLTE does not switch off the data connection when you are on a call, and that’s why it is possible to surf the web while also being on a call. 
• Connection is much faster, given that both the users are on VoLTE.
• You can directly make video calls from your phone on VoLTE without any external application like Skype, Whatsapp or Facebook Messenger.
• VoLTE uses data to connect to calls, which means no more per-minute bills for voice calls.

On non-VoLTE 4G smartphones, your phone switches to 3G when you are on a call and then switches back to 4G when you are not on the call. It can take a toll on your phone’s battery life, but VoLTE compatible phones don’t need to do this constant switching which means improved battery life.

There are still smartphones that are not compatible with VoLTE, but as we have seen in the past few years, the telecom industry is slowly making more and more VoLTE supported devices.

In India, Reliance Jio had the first-movers advantage of launching VoLTE in September 2016, and after that, Airtel, Vodafone Idea and BSNL have also introduced it. Reliance Jio is also the first Indian operator to launch VoLTE based international roaming services.
