Prospective buyer here.. call quality?

[sampoodle]

I am considering buying the Nokia 6.1 here in the U.S. and have two areas of concern:

The main one: Call quality.
Is it OK, or better on this model?
My hearing is not perfect so i need to pay attention to clarity and volume.

Second one is: Enough of LTE overlap for satisfactory LTE operation in Western Europe?
On paper, it looks that way, but I want to hear from more knowledgeable folks here

My Nokia 6.1 works well in the UK, so unless there are regional variants of the 6.1 you should be OK in Western Europe.
Re Call Quality -- it's perfectly acceptable to me although to be honest, the Nokia 6.1 is not my primary handset and only occasionally gets used as a phone. Others here may be better qualified to share experiences of call quality.

Call quality seems fine to me. It's certainly no worse than my 1+1 is. Network issues may cause noise on the line I guess but I haven't had that. The only person I call is my mom, she's the only person I know who doesn't text.

Well the typical phone in the U.S. market has often some quirky variants. what I found (subject to verification):

Model number TA-1050 is U.K. issue Is this your model?

TA-1045 is U.S./Canada


Next job, dig respective radio specs and compare.

Yes, I'm on a TA-1050 here in the UK

Have a look through the Nokia Power User site and you should be able to find specs
