That\u2019s now changing, as T-Mobile has started rolling out \u2018Voice over 5G\u2019 on select phones.<\/p>\n<p>T-Mobile announced today that it has started rolling out Voice over 5G, also known as VoNR or Voice Over New Radio, in \u201climited areas of Portland, Ore. and Salt Lake City.\u201d The feature is also currently limited to the Samsung Galaxy S21, but it will roll out to more areas and phones (like the Galaxy S22) in the near future.\u00a0T-Mobile says phones using Voice over 5G will have a shorter delay between dialing a number and the phone starting to ring.<\/p>\n<p>So, why does it matter if your phone calls use 5G or not? Well, it mostly just matters to T-Mobile \u2014 the carrier has been building out its 5G network over the past few years, but switching phones back to the older LTE network just for phone calls is a bottleneck on the process. Having <em>everything<\/em> function over 5G (when a 5G connection is available, anyway) simplifies the technical infrastructure and might result in fewer connection issues for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>The transition also opens the door for 4G and LTE to eventually shut down, though that likely won\u2019t h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>en for at least a decade.
