A method for detecting voice, an apparatus for detecting voice, a chip for processing voice, and an electronic device are disclosed. The apparatus includes: a sub-band generation module and a voice activity detection module; wherein the sub-band generation module is configured to process a current time-domain signal frame to obtain sub-band time-domain signals, and the voice activity detection module is configured to determine, according to amplitudes of the sub-band time-domain signals in the current time-domain signal frame, whether the current time-domain signal frame is an effective voice signal. The apparatus for detecting voice may be practiced in a time domain, such that complexity of algorithms is lowered, and power consumption is reduced.
