One thing you need to be careful about is comparing a service in China with the service outside of China. For example Skype in China because of the monitoring put on it disconnects all the time where it would be fine outside of China. Services like WeChat have an inbuilt advantage in that their connectivity isn't as interfered with in the same way that western apps are.
- tluyben2 10y agoSkype doesn't work in the west (I live 5 months per year in Spain and the rest I work in UK/NL/China/HK/Aus; it is no different in other places hence I like wechat which works well everywhere) either on bad connections; it won't connect or will be very slow/unreliable at sending even small pieces of text, let alone images.
- aantix 10y agoIt works for me. It's stable and down-regulates the stream quality really well with a bad connection.
- jasonlingx 10y agoIt's horrible and I often have to reboot my computer whilst using it.
- aantix 10y agoWhy would you have to reboot your computer if an app is failing? I don't think I've had to do this since running Windows 2000..
- jasonlingx 10y agoExactly... It actually starts saying it is unable to connect to my speakers and microphone...
- tluyben2 10y agoThe fact you can still talk means you have a far far better connection than I am trying to describe here.
- yyhhsj0521 10y agoI agree.. My Skype is always unhappy to send images for me. Whereever I am.
