Voice over New Radio

I just read an article on spiegel.de (paywall) about what one needs to use 5G+, aka Voice over New Radio (VoNR). VoNR seems to be an optional feature a phone can provide in addition to 5G that routes phone calls to LTE.

They mention that Vodafone Germany says the following phones support VoNR:

iPhone 13 bis 16, das Samsung Galaxy S21 bis S24, das Google Pixel 7 bis 9 und das Xiaomi Mi 11 5G

The Fairphone 5 page does not mention it.

I guess I can afford to :gift: gift the article (max. 10 viewers):

I wasn’t aware that spiegel.de had the gifting feature, I only knew it from heise.de. So here’s another 10 views:

Check the developer settings there you can probably enable, however of it works…for me its gryed out but enables although I dont even have 5G. Network Telefonica.

To check if it works it might help to call this number

*#*#4636#*#*

and check IMS status

Thanks for the tip. I don’t have 5G either, so I can’t test it. Maybe somebody with 5G+ access can do that?

reg 5G SA, which is what is needed for VoNR…

I found two articles on the German O2/Telefónica web site:
5G-Standalone jetzt verfügbar: Das sind die Vorteile
5G SA: 5G Standalone setzt neue Maßstäbe

The second is also linked by the first. The articles do not seem to be available in any other language, so please use a translator like DeepL or Google Translator if you want to kno more. To wet your appetite, here are the titles in English :smiley:
5G Standalone now Available: These are the Benefits
5G SA: 5G Standalone sets new Benchmarks
