But the weakest link on such calls is always the phone-to-cellsite.
Got an olde MOTO 4G phone most of the time when its good its good sometimes on some sources its excellent depends of the bandwidth available for transmission.
Got a mate out in the channel islands on a GSM call usually piss poor on a wattsapp call or VoIP type call then very good received at my end on said mobile!
Or maybe the lack of bits owing the sheer overload of most all networks?.
We had VM and Zen here at that time both fell over:(...
Having used Zoom quite a bit during this pandemic, never quite understood how they can have reasonable pictures but appalling sound. But not always
- from the same person using exactly the same equipment as previously.
Aye, in a conversation the most important information is the sound, that should be the last to go. Reduce the resolution, reduce the frame rate but maintain the sound. No point in seeing someones lips move in glorious 8k if you can't hear the words (lip readers excepted).
As I've seen it, the pictures are often static or jerky when coupled with bad sound.
Sometimes - but not always. Since it is a method of communication, I'd expect it to be designed so the pictures to disappear before the sound is effected, excepted for total loss of signal.

No, no. I ordered it online from John Lewis, and next day collected it from Waitrose. Kwality!
