There's an app you can download to enable VoLTE and WiFi Calling. If worst comes to worst you can flash the carrier ROM to your phone using Odin and since it's flashing an official Samsung ROM it won't trigger KNOX.
There are already deals for 200 off for the phone, no one buying the phone right now is paying the $1000 tag, too many deals, and I am not even talking about the trade ins. I'm with Sprint and it's 200 off at Best Buy, before the trade in and gift
Sounds dope, but I'll hang onto my Note 8 for another year. They just cost too much for no good reason except they can get away with it. Adulting
Yeah im leaning towards keeping my note 8 now. Watched several note 8 vs 9 videos last night and the upgrades aren't even convincing enough. Im not trying to spend money on this outright and i dont want to touch my 10gb/$60 plan right now
And i hear Samsung has something special in store next year too so it sounds more logical for me to wait it out
Might buy some note 8 accesories to keep it looking fresh. I still have the imei sticker on the back of the phone too, that is how much care I've kept this phone in and i bought it day one
No carrier bloatware, easier to resell, the ability to easily switch carriers if need be, and no monthly installment payments
Plus I've had no issues with using my unlocked Pixel on T-Mobile. Maybe different carrier/unlocked phone combos do though
Make your phones too good brehs
I just bought a Note FIVE last year and the shyt is FYE. Just hope the battery doesn't go on me

Yeah that's a pixel. I bought my wife an unlocked S7 a while back and she can't use the phones native wifi or video calling and sometimes her connection is spotty.
Bloatware sucks but there are ways around that... or just cop a pixel and use project Fi.
She can't use Wi-Fi or video calling?
How does Samsung even entertain the idea of selling unlocked phones if they won't work seamlessly on any carrier?That's why I stay away from Samsung. They got the best hardware in the industry but all THEIR bloat (on top of the carrier bloat if you don't buy unlocked) is ridiculous (and obviously unusable in many cases). What is Samsung's default video calling software? I thought it was Google Duo across all Android devices.

Samsung has their version of facetime that works between samsung phones. It's within the dialer, doesn't have an official name but whenever you call a samsung compatible phone the option is available.
I'm not the biggest samsung fan but I doubt I'll ever buy a google phone again. I had the nexus 6p and when all the phones had battery issues google refused to do anything about it. I've got a verizon S8+ for over a year now and it works great, the verizon bloatware doesn't give me any problems.
See that's Samsung's problem, they wanna create their own ecosystem independent of Android (think Samsung Pay, Samsung Galaxy Apps, Bixby, their own video calling app, duplicating every Google app that Android comes with by default, etc, etc, etc) which makes for a bloated, laggy, and fragmented experience.
If they want to have their own ecosystem so desperately they should just create their own OS.
VOLTE(Calling plus) Working on Sprint Note 8.
info on how to get WiFi calling and VoLTE working on an unlocked phone at least on Sprint.
Again with an unlocked phone you can still flash a carrier ROM. all the phones are essentially the same but some have carrier ROMs flashed to them.

Unusable? Got to be a joke..S8, Note 8, and S9 plus are 3 of the best phones of the last 5 years.She can't use Wi-Fi or video calling?

Countless duplicate apps and useless bloat? 
Slow and often time no Android updates 
I've had all those phones..never had a WiFi issue to date unless he trying to steal it or something.
