Video calls (network service)

When you make a video call, you can see a real-time,
two-way video between you and the recipient of the call.
The live video image, or video image captured by the
camera in your device is shown to the video call recipient.

To be able to make a video call, you must have a USIM card
and be in the coverage of a UMTS network. For availability
of and subscription to video call services, contact your
network operator or service provider. A video call can only
be made between two parties. The video call can be made

to a compatible mobile device or ISDN client. Video calls
cannot be made while there is another voice, video, or
data call active.

Icons:

You are not receiving video (the recipient is not
