[SOLVED] Using PC speaker & microphone to handle cellphone calls

[Shalmaneser]

My cellphone microphone/speaker is horrible. My PC is great for apps such as zoom & skype. I use my cellphone as a internet hotspot access for the PC. I need to participate in various phone conference calls. I don't see the need for VOIP charges. Is there a solution for using the PC speakers & microphone to make SIM based phone calls?

If you're on recent Windows 10 build, check whether "My Phone" app will work for your phone. I have it enabled for my Samsung, and I am able to use my laptop as glorified hands-free headset to my phone (in addition to other functions like being able to write SMSs on the laptop).

Use both speakers and a headset with microphone on a sound card with both Speaker-Out and Line-Out Jacks. Some sound cards have both a speaker out and a line out jack. If you have both jacks, then your headphones can go in the speaker-out jack and your amplified speakers can go in the line-out jack.
