Sounds much better than any mobile phone, on a cheap vtech cordless phone from walmart.
No idea what kind of mobile phone you have however the Ooma we have installed is mediocre. You cannot talk at same time as other person, wind and it ruins conference calls when I used it annoying everyone due to being poor at handling odd audio. If the service cost more then $4.95/month for taxes I would dump it. I have decent and low latency bandwidth so it is not my connection as video conferencing destroys it.
The audio over Verizon LTE and iPhone >=6s with voice over LTE is excellent. Even better when it connects via HD to certain phones like you are in same room.
I understand some low budget cell providers use the old mediocre quality cellular connection which potentially is your case. Verizon in fact and thankfully is dumping it earlier next year.
Wow never had those issues, and I am literally using a nine dollar cordless phone from walmart.
My cell phone is an iphone SE, and the ooma voice quality is much better.
You may want to look into port issues on the router if you are having voip issues. What's interesting is I didn't have to open any ports or mess with forwarding for my ooma device.
You are correct Justin,
Ooma home phone line, $6 a month. Case closed. Im sure the op can figure this out based on these posts, if he wants to keep a home phone line, Ooma $6 a month and over 80% chance his voice quality will be superior to any cell phone and equal to or better then any landline.
Goodness sakes, if he was unhappy he could simply return the device for a refund, nothing lost. That is why I say motivated.
Like any phone service or any service, no matter what it is, there will always be people who have an issue with any device and most times its in the home or connections to it.
.
Fact is Ooma delivers home phone and business services just like any phone provider and its an excellent service.
Again, nothing to lose if OP was motivated and wanted it.
Our Ooma service is flawless and honestly better then any old school Copper land line service.
I hate to say this, because most people who review online are people with complaints, but with that said, even on Amazon reviews put Ooma at over 80% of the people rating is 4 starts or higher, which is amazing for any internet device, actually a full 69% give it 5 stars. I dont know, but I dont this any service is rated this high.
