Some say that the disadvantage is that the quality of the call is poor.

Rakuten Link, which has unlimited domestic calls and all -you -can -eat, seems to have only benefits for users, but some users say that poor call quality is disadvantageous.

In the first place, the Rakuten Link app is an application that realizes calls and SMS using packet communication.Because the conventional telephone line is not used, the line speed often affects the call quality.In areas such as outside the Rakuten Mobile line area or in areas where line speed is slow, the opponent's voice may be broken or sounded.

By the way, in order to improve call quality, it is recommended to set the data high -speed mode to "on".The communication speed when the data high -speed mode is turned off is about 1Mbps.This speed is enough to browse the Internet, but it is a unsatisfactory figure to stabilize the quality of the call.If you want to improve the quality of the call, turn on the data high -speed mode and make a call.
