What am I looking for in a Volte phone?

[Android Central Question]

I use straight talk and they keep telling me I will need to update to a volte capable phone soon. But when browsing phones I'm not seeing a volte search criteria or filter so I'm confused what I'm looking for and what is available to me. I really would want a compact andoroid phone but don't know which are compatible with straight talk and are volte enabled. HELP!!

I would ask Straight Talk if it's unclear from their website

Most phones today are VoLTE (voice over LTE) capable, but is often labeled something like HD calling, advanced calling, or something similar.

Welcome to Android Central! Which phone do you have right now that isn't compatible with VoLTE?

It's a little hard to figure out which specific phones would be compatible, but generally any phone released in the past couple of years will likely work. (The Luna was released 3 years ago.) The easiest approach would be to shop from Straight Talk's own selection: https://shop.straighttalk.com/shop/en/straighttalk/phones. It might be trickier if you bring an unlocked phone to Straight Talk, because it's possible some other carrier's phone might not be entirely compatible with Straight Talk''s VoLTE.
