This unique feature allows users to make crystal clear calls when connected to a Wi-Fi network. Reliance Jio has announced that the WiFi calling service will be rolled out pan-India between January 7 and January 16 and with this, it becomes the second telecom player to roll out VoWiFi services in the country. Last month, Airtel <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/telecom/news/reliance-jio-vowifi-is-now-rolling-out-in-delhi-and-chennai/articleshow/73155307.cms">started rolling out</a> the service which is now available in thirteen circles. Commenting at the launch of VoWiFi calling services, Akash Ambani, Director, Jio, said, “At Jio, we are constantly innovating to enhance customer experience or solve their problems. At this juncture, when an average Jio consumer uses over 900 minutes of voice calls every month, and at a growing base of consumers, the launch of Jio Wi-Fi Calling will further enhance every Jio consumer’s voice-calling experience, which is already a benchmark for the industry with India’s-first all VoLTE network.” Jio VoWiFi is currently supported on over 150 smartphones. If your smartphone isn't included in the list of supported devices at the moment, it could be added in the list in the near future. You can visit the company's <a href="https://www.jio.com/en-in/jio-wifi-calling">website</a> and check if your device is supported. What is VoWiFi? VoWiFi or Wi-Fi calling is a service where users can make or receive calls and SMS over a WiFi network. With Wi-Fi calling, users get improved indoor coverage, faster connectivity and clearer conversations. When you are connected to a Wi-Fi network and place a call from an eligible device, the call quality is boosted automatically. While Airtel’s VoWiFi service is officially supported only on the company’s Xstream Fiber broadband service, we were able to use it on non-Airtel Wi-Fi connections as well. Similarly, Jio VoWiFi also works with non-Jio Fiber connections.

It first announced the launch date which is January 11 along with the phone’s design. Now, the company’s CEO Pete Lau has now revealed the key specifications of the <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/mobile/news/oneplus-10-pro-with-triple-rear-cameras-hasselblad-branding-to-launch-on-jan-11/articleshow/88683512.cms">OnePlus 10 Pro</a>. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="OnePlus 10 Pro – specifications, features and everything we know so far" comment="subhead" text="OnePlus 10 Pro – specifications, features and everything we know so far">OnePlus 10 Pro – specifications, features and everything we know so far</cmsannotation> The latest reveal isn’t surprising since the rumours and leaks have been right so far about the OnePlus 10 Pro. The smartphone will be powered by the flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor. The screen size hasn’t been revealed but it will feature a 120Hz Fluid AMOLED LTPO display. On the software front, the OnePlus 10 Pro will run Android 12-based OxygenOS 12 out of the box. OxygenOS 12 is the company’s next major update and is based on Oppo’s <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/mobile/news/oneplus-2-0-oxygenos-and-coloros-to-merge-into-a-unified-os-starting-2022/articleshow/86388131.cms">ColorOS</a>. OnePlus is partnering with Hasselblad again for the cameras and the setup is going to a combination of 48-megapixel, 50-megapixel and 8-megapixel sensors. It’s the same camera configuration as the OnePlus 9 Pro without the monochrome camera. Up front will be a 32-megapixel camera for selfies and video calls. The OnePlus 10 Pro will also pack a 5,000mAh battery with 80W SuperVOOC wired charging and 50W AirVOOC wireless charging. It will also support reverse wireless charging. More features on the OnePlus 10 Pro include NFC, VoLTE, VoWiFi, Bluetooth 5.2, and dual stereo speakers. The only details that remain to be revealed are the RAM and storage models and pricing of the OnePlus 10 Pro. It did mention though that the smartphone will have LPDDR RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. Rest of the details are expected to be announced on the official launch day which is taking place in China.

<ul><li>The <keyword id="1553175" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="vodafone-idea" source="Orion">Vodafone Idea</keyword> stock has seen a massive uptrend over the last one month. </li><li>According to a new report, Vodafone Idea could finally be ready to raise equity, either from the promoters or private equity firms or both. </li><li>The market seems to have caught a whiff of it, sending the stock rallying by over 50% in the last one month. </li></ul>Shares of Vodafone Idea have rallied by over 50% in the last one month, bringing back cheer to the shareholders of the company who have shown their faith while the telco was running on fumes over the past one year. In early trade on December 16, Vodafone Idea’s shares were up by nearly 3% when compared to the previous closing price. <div type="image" title="Vodafone Idea 01_11_21 to 16_12_21." msid="88311420" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Vodafone Idea share price over the last one month&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The rally seems exceptional, especially in the absence of any major positive for the company – Vodafone Idea’s subscriber attrition hasn’t slowed down, and its average revenue per user (ARPU) is significantly lower than that of its rivals, at just ₹109 versus Airtel and Reliance Jio’s ₹153 and ₹143, respectively. So, what gives? <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/telecom/telecom-news/vodafone-idea-plans-to-get-back-in-the-game-with-4x-rise-in-capex-to-2-billion/articleshow/88308573.cms?from=mdr">Reportedly</a>, the promoters of the company are aiming to increase the annual capital expenditure by four-fold to $2 billion (approx. ₹15,200 crore). Clearly, the market caught a whiff of it. It’s not the first time that reports have claimed Vodafone Idea will infuse equity, but this time, it’s coming straight from the horse’s mouth – the report adds that these comments were made by the company’s senior management at an internal investors’ call this week. The increase in capex could help the telco catch up to its rivals Airtel and Reliance Jio in terms of technology and other aspects. Business Insider has reached out to Vodafone Idea for comments. For instance, Vodafone Idea did not launch Voice over Wi-Fi (VoWiFi) for several months after Airtel and Reliance Jio announced support across the country. Vodafone Idea currently spends an estimated $500 million (approx. ₹3,800 crore) in capex, while its rivals Airtel and Reliance Jio spend $3 billion (approx. ₹22,800 crore) each. At the end of September, 2021, Vodafone Idea had ₹250 crore in cash and cash equivalents, while its debt stood at ₹1.94 lakh crore. A four-fold boost is only possible if either the promoters, or private equity firms are ready to plough in equity into the third largest telecom company in India.

Hit by a demand of ₹53,000 crore for the repayment of adjusted gross revenue dues, Vodafone CEO Nick Read that its Indian entity could be liquidated if the government does not provide any assistance. Essentially, the future looks dire for Vodafone Idea. Vodafone has written down the book value of its Indian business to nil, sparking speculation that the second biggest telco in India could wind up soon. In November 2019 alone, 36 million Vodafone Idea subscribers migrated out to other networks. But Vodafone Idea has more than just Jio to blame. It has stopped competing with <keyword id="15491" type="DOMAIN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Airtel">Airtel</keyword> and Jio when it comes to offering new features like eSIM, VoWiFi and more. Here is a quick look at Vodafone Idea troubles since the entry of Jio in the Indian telecom industry.

While mobile subscribers have been the ones who have benefited so far thanks to rock-bottom data prices and free calls, things are starting to look dire for over 450 million users of Vodafone Idea, BSNL and MTNL. On one hand, Vodafone Idea is fighting for its survival after the Supreme Court directed it to pay its AGR dues worth ₹53,000 crore. Added to that, the merged entity has not been spending on its network, leaving its customers frustrated. Those who continue to use the services are also wondering if the crisis might affect their connections. On the other hand, state-run BSNL and MTNL are facing an acute crunch of staff after more than 90,000 employees opted for the <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/telecom/news/almost-94000-bsnl-and-mtnl-employees-apply-for-vrs-amidst-union-protest/articleshow/72234229.cms">voluntary retirement scheme</a> (VRS) offered by the Modi government. Over 450 million users stuck in a limbo According to the latest numbers released by TRAI, Vodafone Idea, BSNL and MTNL have more than 450 million wireless subscribers, accounting for almost 40% of India’s total wireless subscribers. The common theme in <a href="https://twitter.com/Shishir_SD/status/1216995242357841920">complaints</a> of subscribers of these companies is that either the network is down or that it is unreliable. While Vodafone Idea users often complain about network issues, many of them are porting out of the network in frustration.

 Vodafone Idea is hemorrhaging subscribers Since the arrival of Jio, Vodafone Idea has lost almost 100 million users. Over <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/panicking-vodafone-idea-users-are-porting-to-airtel-and-reliance-jio-but-that-might-not-be-the-solution-theyre-looking-for/articleshow/73425737.cms">36 million</a> of these users were lost in November 2019. But more recently, the company has stopped competing with Jio and Airtel when it comes to new features. While Jio and Airtel have been offering services like eSIM and VoWiFi for a while now, Vodafone Idea hasn’t even talked about it. While eSIM or VoWiFi are not essential features, their absence on Vodafone’s network suggests that it has more important issues to deal with right now. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/corporates/news/mukesh-ambanis-reliance-jio-becomes-the-largest-telco-by-revenue-and-subscribers-as-industry-shows-signs-of-recovery/articleshow/73667566.cms">Latest numbers</a> released by <a href="https://main.trai.gov.in/sites/default/files/PR_No.09of2020_0.pdf">TRAI</a> reveal that Vodafone is hemorrhaging, losing over 36 million subscribers in November 2019. VRS is adversely affecting BSNL and MTNL customers The mass exodus of employees at BSNL and MTNL has severely affected users of landline as well as wireless subscribers. The acute staff crunch has meant that customer complaints of landlines going dead or the wireless internet speeds being very low are not being addressed appropriately. There could be only two choices left in the market, and that’s not a good thing With the future of Vodafone Idea, BSNL and MTNL hanging in the balance, there are only two choices left in the market – Jio and Airtel. If Vodafone Idea <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/corporates/news/vodafone-writes-off-book-value-of-indian-operation-ceo-flags-liquidation-risk/articleshow/72031766.cms">goes out of business</a>, Jio and Airtel will end up controlling a significant majority of the market, allowing them to raise prices without any repercussions. While Jio has offered affordable plans so far, a duopoly effectively gives it the freedom to raise prices in the future. Airtel’s services, on the other hand, are already costlier than Jio’s. Most recently, Jio <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/reliance-jio-may-still-have-the-cheapest-plan-on-offer-as-airtel-and-vodafone-idea-have-a-lead-on-telecom-tariffs/articleshow/72335722.cms">announced</a> a price hike of up to 40% after its rivals Airtel and Vodafone Idea increased prices. Since then, the company has also reduced the validity of its annual plans by up to 8%, which forces users to recharge for an extra month now.
