Good point! I totally forgot that.
But if I am able to recall correctly the QoS for the VoLTE and just regular data is totally different and the antenna may refused to provide you enough data for a non-prior service

bdonvr@thelemmy.club 4 days agoPlease, be aware that the quality of the voice call depends and a lot of the data rate. Keep this in mind uif you are in remote locations with poor coverage.
Nowadays most cell calls are VoIP anyhow. Heck in the US they shut off the old networks and only allow VoLTE/Vo5G

Yea, buts that very different than software VOIP.
I know this first hand by having VOIP-only voice on my phone via a service using Monocles Chat or Cheogram.
Voice calls via my cell plan are much better quality and more consistent than VOIP via an app. I suspect this is because voice calls over 4G/5G are encoded by hardware.
Even Google Voice for calls is pretty awful, which is why I’ve never paid to use it for voice calls.
