Subscribers of Vietnamobile who own one of the latest Samsung mobile phones will enjoy wireless network calling services with better quality and higher definition.

Mobile telecom provider Vietnamobile announced on Tuesday its partnership with Samsung to become one of the first operators in Viet Nam to provide VoLTE and VoWifi voice call services.

According to Vietnamobile, VoLTE, or Voice over LTE, is the 4G wireless network-based calling service that enables users enjoy high-definition voice over an LTE (Long Term Evolution) network. Meanwhile, VoWifi, or Voice over Wifi, helps users make calls with Wifi even when a mobile network is unavailable.

These two technologies have been integrated for Samsung Galaxy S10, S10+, SE and future models.

Speaking at a ceremony to launch its Thanh Hi Sim in Ha Noi on Tuesday, CEO of Vietnamobile, Christina Hui, said the company was working with other mobile phone producers to provide these services to its subscribers.

This move showed Vietnamobile’s efforts to overcome its disadvantage of having smaller network coverage that other firms, she said.

The provider has a 3 per cent of share in Viet Nam’s mobile network. — VNS
