Softonic review

Skype Portable is the standalone version of the popular VOIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) program that permits you call and talk to other Skype users, movie talk and more for free over the internet.

Just like its desktop counterpart, Skype Portable lets you have voice talks on your computer – like telephone, only for free – and also make real phone calls at much lower rates, using the so called SkypeOut service and paying with Skype credit. Besides voice talks, Skype Portable also includes the standard IM functionalities (written conversations, emoticons, user avatars and so on) and also lets you have group movie conferences.

These movie calls are precisely the main concentrate on Skype Portable’s latest version. The program’s interface has been fully redesigned with movie conferences on mind. This means Skype Portable has been made broader so that movie fits in ideally with your written talk, your contact list and a toolbar to manage conversation. The fresh interface in Skype Portable is transformed when you make a call, getting rid of all the clutter, so you just see the movie pictures, and controls.

The sound quality in Skype Portable during our testing was ideal: noisy and clear. Movie sometimes appeared a bit pixelated, but nothing we couldn’t truly deal with. There was also one nice detail, and that’s the capability to see your own movie picture built-in on your contact’s movie, and the option to take a snapshot of your own picture.

The other major development in Skype Portable is Facebook integration. This is a pretty big thing, as not only does it give you your news feed in the app – anyone can do that – but adds call and SMS buttons to any of your friends who share their contact numbers. If you’ve paid for Skype minutes, you can call your Facebook friends, and if they’re also signed in to Skype Portable you can call them for free. One of the best fresh features is the automatic call recovery – drop a call and it’s put in pause. Restarting it is now indeed effortless.

Skype Portable is just like the desktop version: accomplish interface overhaul that now concentrates more on movie talks; some handy improvements to the way you communicate online and no installation required!
