    At least in the United States, when you call somebody on the same carrier as you, you get that HD quality thing, and that improves the call quality a bunch versus the standard 8KB phone call. However, even still, when you call somebody on another carrier, you generally don’t get that high quality call. So it would be nice to get those high quality calls between carriers for everybody before moving on.

        Voice over LTE and high definition calling is actually not the same thing. You can have a voice over LTE call and not have the high quality audio calling. All Voice over LTE actually does is make your call into packets between you and your providers network instead of setting up a circuit like they used to.
