Skype 3: Compare

By Felisa Yang on 21/12/2006

More Skype reviews , RRP: Free

The good:

  • Sound quality is great, especially on Skype-to-Skype calls
  • Integrating Skypecasts into the dashboard makes it easier to use
  • New features are amusing and fun
  • Still get loads of useful features

The bad:

  • New features open in their own windows, resulting in a very cluttered desktop

The bottomline:

The changes to Skype 3 are mostly entertainment-oriented and there are no major upgrades to performance, but we still like Skype for its ease of use, low cost, and sound quality.
