If you are in one of the 100+ countries that are part of the new roaming plan, then voice calls are $0.20/minute, inbound or outbound, local or international.
Would this answer be different if I manage to sync my google voice number to the phone so that all calls are through the google voice number?
I'm not sure how Google Voice works. If it has an installed app and uses VOIP, then it would just use the free data, which is fast enough BTW for voice calls (at least it works fine for Skype). If it just forwards the call to your regular cellular number, then there is no savings - it will cost $0.20 for all calls.
