After a long wait, Maxis has started offering Voice over LTE (VoLTE) on its network. Not only does it offer a faster connection and higher quality for voice calls, it also allows you to stay connected to 4G when there is an incoming call.
According to Maxis, VoLTE promises to deliver realistic voice call quality. Since it uses 4G, calls can be connected faster and it has higher bandwidth for better quality. Without VoLTE, Maxis users would automatically switch to 3G when there is a call and this can be annoying if you are using data simultaneously.
The introduction of VoLTE is also crucial as Malaysia aims to shut down 3G by the end of 2021. On top of that, it is also a prerequisite to enable 5G and it would be silly if devices still need to rely on 2G or 3G for voice calls. . .
To activate VoLTE, just make sure you are using a compatible device and enable VoLTE in your phone settings. According to the Maxis website, it is compatible with iPhone 7 and later versions running on iOS 13.1. It is also compatible with Android devices, including Xiaomi Mi 10 and Mi 10T series, as well as Mi Note 10 Lite, Poco F2 Pro, Redmi Note 9 Pro and Redmi Note 9. The VoLTE compatibility list also covers Oppo, ZTE, Samsung , I live selected. and Huawei devices. Below is the full list of Maxis:
According to Maxis, VoLTE is available to all Hotlink Postpaid and Maxis Postpaid customers. Maxis Postpaid customers with Share N Surf (Multi-SIM One Line), Maxis Business customers with Maxis Business Postpaid, and Hotlink customers will be enabled at a later stage.
When we tried to enable it on our Maxis postpaid line on the iPhone 11 Pro Max, we received a warning that this mobile network has not been certified for VoLTE. Even after it’s enabled it doesn’t seem to work and our iPhone still switches from 4G to 3G when we try to make a call. Maxis is also the latest Malaysian telco to offer VoLTE, as other operators such as Yes, Digi and U Mobile introduced the feature several years ago. Celcom recently enabled VoLTE for iPhone just a few months ago.
