Wifi Calling battery question

[Yeoi34]

Does anyone know how the battery usage is like when Wifi calling is enabled?

If you mean while actively on a call, I'm not sure it would make any difference? If on a wi-fi call, i dont know that it would be any different than if just surfing the internet.

In reality, probably no difference. The difference would come if you regularly placed your phone into airplane mode, and then turned wifi back on, especially in a weak cell area, because then the cell radios would be off.

Probably during a call and Idling

The same as when using any IP voice app. When you speak, the transmitter is transmitting, when you're not, it's not.

I never turn WiFi calling off, & I can't imagine battery life being much better with it off.
