Orange rolls out high-definition voice for mobiles Click Link For Full Story


Mobile firm Orange has become the first UK network to use a technology that offers higher quality voice calls.

High Definition (HD) voice claims to reduce background noise and the "hisses and crackles" often heard on a normal mobile call.

The technology, known as, Adaptive Multi Rate Wideband (AMR-WB) has been adopted as an international standard for 3G mobile networks.

Other networks are expected to follow Orange soon, experts said.
