From September Magyar Telekom starts activating the 4G Voice option in high numbers also to its iPhone customers, hence the 4G Voice gradually becomes available to them. Following the introduction of the 4G Voice service in April first it was made available to customers using Samsung telephones falling in the model category of Samsung Galaxy S7 and up. Consequent to the cooperation with mobile terminal manufacturers, Telekom gradually expands this option for other terminal types as well. According to plans, by year end the 4G capability will be activated for further several thousand Telekom subscribers, resulting in faster call setup, HD voice quality and continuous, 4G speed mobile internet connection also during voice communication.

Magyar Telekom was the first Hungarian operator to launch the voice service on April 27, 2017 on its entire 4G network in Hungary. Using the VoLTE (Voice-over-LTE) technology, voice calls can also be made through the 4G network (not 3G or 2G) which represents an important milestone also in terms of mobile network development, as it channels mobile services towards the completely IP-based networks, offering glitch-free connections.
