Skype just released version 3.0 on Android, which brings its new Microsoft
account login feature, as well a revamped Android user interface. Skype
has optimized the new tablet UI for the Galaxy Tab 2, Nexus 7, the
Transformer Prime from ASUS, and a few others. Menus and navigation have
been redesigned to make use of the extra screen real estate, and while
the home screen still exists on the phone version, your contact list
will be front and center most of the time on a tablet.
Skype for Android 3.0 also brings support for the company’s audio codec, SILK. The codec was designed to improve sound specifically with the human voice, so that talking would sound more crisp and clear. The codec collaborates with your internet connection speed, so that the audio quality is optimized as much as it can be.
Overall, the new additions are welcomed, but we noticed the app ran a little too slow for our liking, especially when launching the app, since the splash screen stays on for a good 8-10 seconds. Either way, try it out for yourself. The Skype update is out now and it’s available at the Google Play store.
