So I am lucky if I have 1 or 2 signal bars of LTE at home. Should I use WiFi calling? I have good cable internet. Reason I ask is I turned it on when I first got my xs and had a real terrible phone conversation cutting in and out so I turned it off thinking it was the WiFi call. So in general would a low signal call on LTE or a WiFi call be better?

Simple way to test is leave wifi on, turn on airplane mode and go into phone settings and turn wifi calling on. Now make a test call. Works fine for me, but I don't need it since i get a strong cellular signal at home.
 
I get 1 bar of service at my house. Without WiFi calling I wouldn’t be able to receive or make calls. I’ve had no issues with my conversations cutting out.
