WiFi calling should be compatible with all the latest phones but O2 will only guarantee it with phones they sell themselves.

Judging by posts in the past the latest Samsung Galaxy phones seem to work across their price range

It is a GSM standard nowadays and we have iPhones, Motorola, Pixels and Samsung's all working with WiFi Calling, and in the past seen OnePlus as well .. Ones to avoid really are Xiaomi, Honor, Huawei etc

Depending what you mean by "budget", I would suggest that you consider something in the Samsung Galaxy "A" series.

You will find that www.GSMArena.com is an excellent website for both video and text reviews of mobile 'phones.
