Great call quality


I have had consistently great call quality with Skype 2 using Skype Out to a landline, even when connecting via lower bandwidth hotel wireless connections. The only time I had less then perfect sound was when doing full screen video at the same time. Perhaps the reviewer's connection is dodgy.

Verdict

Although Skype 2 suffers from middling voice quality when calling landline phones, it's still one of the best free VoIP services around, and its new Skype Video feature makes it even better.
