    Samsung Galaxy S22 becomes the first phone to offer voice over 5G (Vo5G)

    The Galaxy S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra have become the world's first smartphones to enable voice over 5G (Vo5G) communications. Mobile operator Zain Kuwait announced the launch of its Vo5G service, and so far, it's available exclusively for the Galaxy S22 series.

    Even though 5G is expanding, the technology is primarily used for data transfers rather than voice calls. However, many network operators are considering transitioning to Vo5G, and Zain Kuwait has become the world's first carrier to offer Vo5G services to smartphone users. (via Telecompaper)

    No other phone does 5G like the Galaxy S22 can

    The Galaxy S22 lineup is the only one to offer Vo5G support on Zain's network, but the service will eventually expand to more 5G handsets. For now, Galaxy S22 customers are the only ones that can make crystal-clear voice calls over 5G.

    Zain deployed its 5G network earlier this year after extensive tests and assessed that it is capable of operating at the highest quality nationwide.

    Meanwhile, the Galaxy S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra are some of the best and most successful Samsung smartphones money can buy, which makes them a great match for the carrier's new network and Vo5G services.

    Thanks for the tip, @Osama11!
