Hi guys ! How are ya'all ?

I'm thinking of getting the XR (my iPhone 6 as well as the moto G5 are dead).
But the problem is network! My house is behind two huge apartment complexes and the network tower line-of-sight is blocked by them. So, need a phone with decent antennae to catch the 4G VOLTE (I need VOLTE to call) to maintain connectivity.

So, how good is the 4G VOLTE performance of iPhone XR ?
Is it dependable ?
iPhone XR is heavily discounted in my country (India) compared to other "plus" phones. So, I would love to get the XR.

Please let me know your opinion.
Thank you!
 
My experience with XR reception was very positive. Both my apartment and work are in weak signal spots and it held on quite well.

Thanks for reply!
So, it's not all doom and gloom with Intel modems.

BTW, does your service provider use VOLTE for audio call ?
My current service provider (Jio, India) only has 4G network and use VOLTE for calls. Without VOLTE, nothing works.

So, can you confirm that VOLTE works on your XR ?
