WhatsApp voice calling hands-on tested

[FaSMaN]

Right so it basically works exactly how we suspected it would.

What would be great is if MyBB did a article comparing data usage VS cost of conventional calls.

Basically calculate how much data a average phone call uses per minute then calculate how much it will cost per minute on the current data bundles from Cell C, MTN and Vodacom, and as a final test how much it will cost out of bundle.

That sort of article would be invaluable for those of us who are still on the fence about costs.

And lose your chat history in the process..?

Did it and it restores the chat from your memory card. Had about 2800 messages restored, up to the latest one this morning. Now I need Jan to call me.

After you dropped my first two calls...

Couldn't answer from my car kit, had to do so from the phone. But the audio worked fine

Could someone please call me? If you willing I'll PM my number. Thanks in advance.

I've been waiting for the day that I'll only need to topup my balance to buy data bundles. Today is that day.

Sharecall and landline numbers I can make from my landline at home (I do it now anyway), but everybody and his cat has WhatsApp!

The article comments are hilarious. There are so many people giving out their numbers. People are clueless about safe password and any digital security.

Exactly what I was thinking. Scammers and the NSA now have names to numbers through bad actions

Cant believe people are posting their numbers online to get people to phone them. First ones to complain when they get scammed.

Worked for me, now have the 3 tabs (Calls, Chats, Contacts.) - Thanks for the call....

Now the network operators have a reason to rip us off on data.
And an excuse for bad data connectivity.

I have been using viber for 2 years now.
