We recommend that you enable the VoLTE feature

VoLTE (Voice over LTE) is a voice solution for high-definition voice and video calls on 4G networks that can provide shorter connection waiting times and higher call quality.

Contact your carrier first to confirm VoLTE service availability. Then, on your phone, go to Settings > search for “VoLTE” in the search box > enter VoLTE settings to enable it. (Enabled by default on some phone models,VoLTEand no switch will be shownVoLTEplease ignore this step..)

An HD icon will be displayed in the notification bar if this feature is activated.
