Fring Epic 4G Video Call

2010-09-01
hey guys it's joe from pocketnow.com and one of the things we've been waiting for for a long time over here in the states is video calling now we got some of that on the iPhone 4 and we've had some previous versions of stuff like fring but there haven't been too many phones that have a front-facing camera well even when the Epic 4G came out the front-facing camera didn't do much because fring didn't know how to talk to it well with an update that just came out in the market now you can fring with video on your Samsung Epic 4G let's go take a look so this is spring let's go ahead and fire it up frame is available free in the market first thing it does when it starts up which usually happens when you start your phone is that it checks your network connection and then logs you in you do need to have a free account which is also free at that point it brings you to this screen and I don't want to choose a frame test call so you're here you can either make a voice call or a video call or even chat in this case it's a test so there's not a test chat let's go ahead and move the camera around so you can see how this works using the front-facing camera so let's give it a shot first we get a message from fraying over here on the left and we get a preview of ourself over here in the right and you can kind of see me with the camera in there now at this point I'm supposed to record a 10-second clip which is basically going to take my video and send it to fring and play it back to me to make sure that my side of the video is complete so there you go video calling over fring with the Samsung Epic 4G finally we can put all of that 4G goodness to good use now I did make this call over my Wi-Fi rather than 4G because I'm not under a 4G umbrella where I live so this is a pretty good example of what you should expect the video is not stellar but it's decent you know it's nowhere near what we see in I face but I can only hope that we'll make some improvements so if you'd like to continue seeing videos like this of course give this video a thumbs up subscribe to our YouTube channel so you're not missing out on any more of the Epic 4G videos if you haven't stopped by our website now is the time to do that that's pocketnow.com and again for pocketnow.com i'm jolie bye
