Really? I've always thought CDMA sounded like absolute crap due to their
overcompression. A good old GSM full-rate codec always sounded better.
These days, however, in the interest of squeezing more calls in, lower-
bitrate codecs are the norm on GSM as well, so that advantage has been lost.

And frankly neither sounded as good as plain old FM analog cellphones, as
long as you had sufficient signal strength to avoid static.
