Yes it is compatible with skype, and there should be an issue using it outside the states, provided that where you are going to has wifi if needed.

I have skype installed and working, but the only problem is that the sound on the tablet side does not work. It's strange, in that sound works for pandora and games, but not for skype and the camera/video app that came with the tablet.

Yes, I have and have used it for video calls. The video is a little grainy, but it works. I just downloaded skype for android tablets on the amazon app store. It was easy.

Yes, you can Skype. The quality is great. I used it to Skype back home to my family when I was in in Iraq and in England. As long as the Internet is stable and a good speed, the Skype will work, although I use other products than Skype.

Don't know - but you can access the User Manual on line at Samsung and that might help. This is an Android phone - but it's the Android version from late 2011 - not the most recent - I guess you should just check with the Skype people. I'm pretty sure somewhere on the Amazon site it does mention which OS version it is, that should be all you need to find out from Skype if it will be supported. I know it will set up a portable WiFi spot because that's one of the BIG reasons I bought it.

Are you visually impaired? The photos right here show this tablet having TWO speaker grills on both short sides. And what do "specs" have with to do with Skype? If you need it, then install the right version of the Skype client and fire it up. BTW, the word "specs" means something like "technical specifications". Technical. Meaning, HW and probably the most essential system SW is listed. No one is going to list all the imaginable apps and progs and utils and what now in the "specs".

Skype not FaceTime. Also won't work with Sprint or Verizon as they are CDMA carriers... It has to be a GSM carrier like AT&T or T-Mobile (maybe), depends on T-Mobile's odd data frequencies... You can tether with your existing Sprint phone over WiFi, but this tablet already has a built in phone :-) May as well keep your Sprint phone and tether it with a WiFi-only Galaxy Tab3 or Nexus 7, etc.

No skype. Needs a memory card and does not pick up wifi correctly. Its a waste of money. Big lots haves better tablets.
