Singapore's second largest mobile operator, M1, this week announced that its mobile network now supports 4G Voice or Voice over LTE (VoLTE) calls. The VoLTE calls will be supported by M1’s LTE-Advanced network, which boosts download speeds of up to 300Mbps. The high definition (HD) calls for customers on 4G plans will be priced as normal call charges.
According to M1, the 4G Voice feature is designed to work seamlessly between M1’s 3G and 4G networks, to deliver uninterrupted conversation to customers. In addition, the VoLTE will allow faster connection times compared to standard mobile calls.
Patrick Scodeller, Chief Operating Officer, M1
Following a period of extensive testing, we are pleased to make available 4G Voice calls to our customers. We are sure our customers will appreciate the enhanced voice call quality and the ease of use of the feature. Customers may need to update their phone software to enable the feature, and M1 is working with handset vendors to ensure upcoming handsets come with the feature enabled.
