A reddit user – Pradnesh Patil, posted the screenshots of the Whatsapp’s voice calling feature and said, Its like an invite thing, where a person with the call feature needs to “call” another person who wants to start using the feature, it only appears to work for people running Lollipop 5.0.x on a Nexus 5 phone.

Minimum Requirements:
