Better comprehension and clarity, especially in long detailed and/or technical discussions

Computer-based processes like voice recognition and speech-to-text also gain from HD voice, with better accuracy.
Advocates of HD voice use the cliche' of a call sounding as clear and natural as if you are talking...
