Zain Kuwait trials VoLTE

Zain says that it has tested the country’s first voice over LTE (VoLTE) service, based on equipment supplied by Huawei and Nokia (NSN).

Zain said that it tested VoLTE in live experiences in order to showcase the technology’s calling capability in preparation for commercial VoLTE services in the near future.

The company is waiting for suitable handsets to be released.

At the end of last year, Zain announced its intention to launch a commercial LTE-A network in the country.
