OPPO, Ericsson, and MediaTek together enable VoNR

MediaTek has collaborated with OPPO and Ericsson to successfully test VoNR (Voice/Video on New Radio) calls using a modified commercial smartphone from OPPO featuring the MediaTek Dimensity 1000 Series SoC, while using an end-to-end 5G Standalone(SA) network powered by Ericsson Radio System products and solutions.

VoNR is the next-generation of call service that completely relies on the 5G network (SA architecture). Compared with earlier call services, VoNR provides significantly lower latency, greatly improved sound quality and picture quality, resulting in an elevated overall experience for users. Together, the three companies efforts are ensuring that even early adopters can achieve a more complete 5G experience.

“MediaTek is committed to giving consumers an unparalleled 5G experience via innovative technology. As a strategic partner of OPPO, we are helping develop a superior device experience for 5G voice and video calls,” said JS Pan, General Manager of Wireless System Design and Partnership at MediaTek.
