minus-squareBeigeAgenda@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up12·5 days agoBack in the early 00’s everybody called and the cell network was stressed, I normally waited 15-30 minutes before calling my parents. Nowadays the 5g network can handle that many calls and a big chunk of the people use something else than phone calls.
minus-squarespongebue@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·5 days agoDoes 5G handle regular voice calls, or are you talking about calling over a data line with an app?
minus-squareBeigeAgenda@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up2·5 days agoI would assume everything including GSM calls is IP/packet based nowadays, unless your phone has switched to 1G
minus-squarePsythik@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·5 days agoIsn’t 1G analog? All voice calls are transmitted digitally and have been since the early 90s.
