I am curious, is anyone here using the video calls available on smartphones? I don’t mean facetime, skype and such, but the original application provided by the cellphone producer itself? Do any cellphone providers even provide such service? Here in Croatia, it is still not available…

Hi,

Only the previous month the 3G service was introduced in Pakistan. It works pretty fine, allows high speed internet and also video calling. The telenor djuice (which i use) service provider are is currently providing the 3G service free of charge.

Good news from Pakistan! Prepare for 4G magic, maybe next year, it`s faster than what you use right now

Related to the original app created by certain manufacturers, I don`t know what to say, I have been using Samsung, HTC and Sony gadgets and haven`t seen something like the way you describe it. Any Android gadget comes with Hangouts preinstalled, which is ok for video call, theoretically there won`t be need for the manufacturer to develop a rival app

On the other hand, Hangouts might annoy you sometimes, for example right now, it seems there is a bug related to video calls, I start one, I see the person I am chatting to, but no sound. I`m so disappointed, that I started to used Tango

Our country has introduced to 3G feature 8 months ago. I used video calling with my smartphone 4-5 times. But I got something- Video calling is best with Apps (Line, Viber, Such), these are cheap & don’t require 3g network where Video calls using service provider at first requires to stay in 3g coverage area. In bangladesh it charges 1.20 BDT ($0.02) per minit video calling but you can video call with your apps for 10+ minits by paying the same.
