Are there any Android phones not on 2degrees' official list that supports VoWiFi? I'd really like to have wireless charging and VoWiFi for my next phone, and the official list leaves me with just Samsung phones (and the Oppo Find X5).

I believe on some handsets it is possible to configure the service settings manually, but you are likely to find weird issues. SIP's flexibility is a two-edged sword. The official supported handsets have dozens of individual tweaks to both the IMS and radio stacks to make them perform reliably and with minimum battery use. So the short answer is that unless the challenge is the point, you're going to find it a lot more trouble than it's worth.

iPad Pro 11" + iPhone 15 Pro Max + 2degrees 4tw!

I suspected as much, but it's good to get confirmation. Thanks.
