Samsung announces the arrival of Wi-Fi Calling to its Smartphones
Samsung has announced the launch of a new feature for its Android smartphones, Wi-Fi Calling, which allows you to make and receive calls over the Wi-Fi network.
This is a function that can be particularly useful for those who have difficulty receiving the operator’s network signal, either at home or in the office, as it allows you to take advantage of the Wi-Fi network to continue a call. The new Wi-Fi Calling function is quite simple to explain: it allows you to make or receive calls while connected to a Wi-Fi network, or continuing it when switching from a 4G network to Wi-Fi (and vice versa) without the user needs to do whatever it is, as everything happens completely automatically.
Switching between mobile network usage and Wi-Fi is managed based on specific signal level thresholds, in order to avoid too frequent switching between VoWiFi and VoLTE, and continuity is also guaranteed by the fact that the technology works Wi-Fi Calling is based on the same infrastructure.
The service is active by default and does not require changing settings or downloading any additional applications, as it is fully integrated with One UI 5.0, which is based on Android 13, which has already arrived on many Samsung Galaxy devices in recent weeks. No change from the main network services, Wi-Fi Calling supports, for example, call waiting, voicemail and calls to emergency numbers. It allows the operator to optimize coverage management inside buildings in areas with poor mobile coverage, and consequent optimization of the quality of the voice service.
Which Samsung Galaxy Support Wi-Fi Calling?
For now, Samsung only offers the function on smartphones in the Samsung Galaxy S22 series, comprising the Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22+ and Galaxy S22 Ultra, but soon the technology will be available on other models. In addition, the service is being activated for compatible operators, so it may not have reached everyone yet.
