Samsung Galaxy S22 hold another world record right now! The entire Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22 Plus, and Galaxy S22 Ultra are right now the only smartphones in the world to support Vo5G technology. Yes, the Galaxy S22 series right now supports the Voice Over 5G technology that claims to boost the call quality in supported areas. Vo5G technology is essentially a successor to the VoLTE feature that most 4G smartphones feature as standard these days.

The Vo5G technology has gone live in Kuwait as Zaid Kuwait, a network operator in the country, has rolled out the feature for supported devices. It is only the Galaxy S22 series that supports Vo5G technology, thereby allowing users to take advantage of this new technology. Similar to VoLTE, this feature is expected to improve call quality when connected to a 5G network.

Galaxy S22 can now host Vo5G calls

It is surprising to learn that despite a shower of 5G smartphones in various markets, it is only the Samsung Galaxy S22 series that supports this feature. Not even the iPhone 13 series supports this feature yet.

What can Vo5G offer to customers? Simply put, it will do exactly the same thing VoLTE did a couple of years ago — improve the call quality. With Vo5G, telecom companies will be able to offer customers ultra HD voice quality in voice calls. This should help with the call experience.

While Samsung is the only one to support this feature, we could see more phones getting this feature in the months to come. Similar to VoLTE support, most manufacturers will be able to roll it out with a software update. Given that India is yet to see any 5G networks, we could be getting the feature in a few years.

The Galaxy S22 series is also making some news lately in other areas. These phones have now beaten Google's Pixel devices to get the latest June security patch. Additionally, the Galaxy S22 series has also proven to be extremely popular in the Indian market, with the flagship Galaxy S22 Ultra leading the sales.

Things could be changing over the next few months as both Samsung and Apple have new products in the premium smartphone space to play with. Samsung will kickstart the launch season in August with the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 devices. Apple will follow it with its iPhone 14 series devices, which is rumoured to include the iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Max, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max.
