    Quote, "VoNR stands for Voice over New Radio with New Radio being the official name of the 5G networks. This means it can place a phone call relying entirely on the 5G architecture."

    Forgive my naiviety, but would anyone care to explain what the big deal is with "a phone call relying entirely on the 5G architecture" ?

    My understanding is, currently 5G phone calls still use the 4G network. Furthermore, 4G calls are made on the 4G network, so why is this such a big deal ? Surely one expects 5G calls to be made entirely on the 5G network, without resorting to 4G ?
