That's correct.  The quality is great on the T-Mobile network too!  Very
clean.

Neal, are you referring to what is known as VolTe which stands for voice
over LTE? I know TMobile supports this and I think other carriers are in the
process of implementing it as well. I think it is also sometimes referred to
as HD Voice but not totally sure about that.



Best regards,

Rick Alfaro

Kelly, I think you answered my questions. I want to be able to make WI-FI
calls on my iPhone rather than using 3G or 4G. I didn't know that MagicJack
allowed one to use the iPhone contacts. This may be an answer.

Thanks for the wealth of information. Now, another question if you don't
mind.

Some carriers are supposedly using some other technology to improve call
quality. I don't think it uses WI-FI. I'll do some research to try and
remember what this is, but if anyone knows what I am talking about, I would
appreciate being educated.

Thanks again.

Neal

Neal,

Are you speaking about the technology called a generic access network?
 this allows cellular voice packets to be transmitted to a WiFI transmitter.
This is commonly known as WIFI calling.  Currently, T-Mobile is the only
carrier in the United States that supports this functionality.  It uses the
voice minutes on your phone plan.  Another technology enables peple to use
their data connection to make telephone calls.  the data connection could
use the cellular network or a WIFI connection.  MagicJack and the vonage app
enable this kind of calling free.  both of these apps allow people to place
telephone calls using their iPhone's contact list.  It is presented in
nearly the same way as it is with the contacts app.  rather than getting
focused on marketing buzz words, it would be better if you described what
you want to accomplish with your phone.
