> Whatsapp call sound shit.

Not for me; it's way better than any landline I've ever used.

Not sure what we're doing differently – are you sure it's not your or the other party's speaker or microphone?

> Mobile phone calls sound shit.

Not for me either, at least not when EVS ("HD voice") is used, which is more often than not these days when calling friends/family.

2G connections used to sound quite bad, but since 4G, the limiting factor for me has been the other side being on a landline (mostly for business calls), which usually doesn't support wideband audio.
