By having it un muted while on a call will then allow you to do everything on the phone without having to do it when you want it. The only downside i can think of at least for me is you will not hear the battery low tone but Talks will read the message for you and then reread the call screen again and again until the phone battery goes dead. So you may or may not want to hear this time and time again and again when the battery is going dead while on a call. Also if you are like me and you try to keep track of your call time, you may not be able to do that with Talks un mutede. The reason why is you will have to wait to hear battery low or battery empty recharge and by the time you may hear battery empty, the phone may have already stopped working. Some of this will depend on the speed you have the phone set to.

The main advantage of course is you can use the phone just like you can outside a call. Another great advantage is even though you can hear Talks at your end, the other person can't. The disadvantage though is that by default Talks is always muted inside a call. So you need to remember to unmute it before you can use your phone with Talks giving the feedbac.
