Does Skype work in GN?

[infantrytrophy]

I'm looking to buy either a GN or a Razr soon. Has anyone used Skype with the GN? Do video calls work OK?<br>

Thanks.

Skype, not swype

To answer the OP, I don't use skype so I don't know. You can definitely get your friends on Google+ and start a hangout though

I do video calls on Fring, works great but no personal experience with Skype.

I can confirm it works great. Videochatted via Skype on GNex on both 3G and WiFi, and both methods worked well, WiFi better than 3G.

+1 'Skype - free video calling' in the market works

Yes it works, but I use Tango instead. Much better.

Thanks to all, useful information. Now I still have a hard choice between the GN and Razr.

As far as your decision goes personally I love my gnex and I was having a hard time myself deciding between it and the razr.

I love the performance so far of the gnex but it comes with a disclaimer, had I known that samsung and verizon were going to screw us with the lack of accessories and docks for the lte version of the gnex I would not of bought it.

I really love it but I also really miss my media dock and a functional car dock that my OG had.

With that said if you want to have functional docks and accessories go with the razr if you want performance and a better screen go with the gnex.

I didn't return my gnex in hopes that there will be accessories for it soon enough but it is slowly looking like that the LTE version of the gnex is getting treated as a bastard stepchild by both samsung and verizon. It's getting no love at all from them.

the docks will come... speculation of course
