4 out of 5 stars
With solid build and access to cheap internet Skype calls from all wherever you are, Computer Act!ve thought the Skypephone from 3 was a good deal. Unfortunately all other calls are made over the 3 network so unless you have a lot of friends and family with Skype, you'll still have to pay standard mobile rates. |

"With this handset, 3 has provided its subscribers with a great way to make free calls to Skype users while on the move. It's just a bonus that the phone also happens to be so small, light and so easy to use." |
