After Apple left Russia, telecom operators could not agree with it on the compatibility of the communication device in the iPhone 14.
We are talking about VoLTE and VoWiFi, which improve the quality of communication. Calls via VoLTE in large Russian cities account for more than 60% of voice traffic.
VoLTE allows you to use the Internet during a call, improving its quality and results in 3G and 2G networks. VoWiFi can use Wi-Fi for regular voice calls in an area with poor cellular coverage.
The VimpelCom press service said that operators cannot apply the settings due to restrictions on Apple’s feelings. According to a Tele2 representative, VoLTE and VoWiFi are included in the operator’s network after testing with the supplier, but “since March, interaction on all projects with Apple has been widespread.”
MTS managed to activate VoLTE for the iPhone 14, “but there is no certainty that it will work stably on all models that are imported into the country.” The operator failed to activate VoWiFi on the iPhone 14. The problem with the work of VoWiFi was confirmed in MegaFon.
The EVS (HD Voice +) codec is not available on iPhone 14, ultra-high quality voice transmission. To distribute the Internet, you must independently prescribe the network parameters.
There are no problems with the 3rd generation iPhone SE, which was released in March and also officially does not fit in Russia. [Коммерсантъ]
