Can you share your experience with Skype on this phone? How does it respond? Can u video chat? Using 3G/WiFi?

We haven't use this device with Skype. I don't see why you could not use skype, but the front cam is only 0.3 MP plus it is a slower 3g phone, so it might not work very well.

Yes, I downloaded Skype successfully and have used it nearly daily for work and personal communication. It seems to work fine on the HP Mini -- perhaps the machine runs a tiny bit slower when using Skype, but I barely noticed it.

It can video chat and I've downloaded apps that say they can make calls but for a fee so I haven't tried it. Theoretically yes VoIP. I do use texting on it just fine.

I have never configured my Gigaset to work with Skype. It looks like there is a way to get some kind of SIP credentials from Skype but I am not sure how you tackle the incoming and outgoing call issue.. Skype has a number of phones that are SKYPE ready- http://shop.skype.com/phones/#/categoryid=2&sortby;=3&subcategoryid;=&filter;=&manufa;cture=&price;_range=~75|75~150|150~225|225~&page;=2&mac;=0Myself and two other friends own Gigasets and use Viatalk for our providers. It's very inexpensive with the 2 yr plan and the quality is amazing

Yes! I bought this laptop for my wife and she used skype a couple of times on it and it worked great.

I haven't had any issues with Skype on it. The video call that I had seemed to run just fine.

I used the Skype application available for free for this phone. I used it only once and it was ok. The sound quality was very good, but the other side (which is Europe, I was calling from the US) complained that my video was slightly blurry. I cannot tell if it was because of the camera or because of the poor connection. I will let you know if I try again and have a better result.

As of May 2014, the answer is yes. It is compatible with Skype. I have it and I use it often. Today I have used again to talk to my familly abroad.

It works with Skype. I did the audio/video test on Skype and the picture and sound were very good. It seems the refresh rate must be slower than my other STX as there was much more ghosting with movements. So don't run around too much while you're talking. :-)

Skype will work on this tablet. I don't know how well it works, but it works.

You can install skype, and you can make calls, but you must consider that this phone does not have a front camera, so you only be able to talk. Another thing to consider is the low ram memory available for use, despite the phone works great, the skype takes to much memory and sometimes it just closes itself.

Skype vdeo will work on it, however it might have lag or crashes when having a video call because its limitation of resources (1 GHz single core CPU and 512 MB of RAM).

I've never used it out of the US - I have received international calls on it. While I can get to facebook, google and youtube - in many cases it is in limited view. Just tried downloading skype - it's too large for the phone's capacity.

Yes, you can.It is 100% compatible with skype.You can use it connecte to a network wireless or use a 3G signal contracte with your prefered company.Note: depending on 3G signal strong you could have some issues because the speed would be not the same that when using a wireless network

Well, it doesn't have 3g capability, but Skype works on it. You can probably do voip calls using grooveip and Google voice, but I can't say for sure.

Hello Katie, I bought this phone from Amazom.com last year November 2013 and its video call works very well. It has 5.0 mega pixels for the front camera and 13.0 mega pixels for the rear camera. I have used it several times for video calls on Skype, Viber and Tango and it was smooth. I am really glad i bought this phone. If you are interested in this phone just go for it. It's a money worth phone.
