Skype for PS Vita Hands-on
Skype finally comes for PS Vita
Skype for PS Vita was released to the PlayStation Store yesterday, falling alongside other third-party apps like Facebook and Netflix and marking a notable expansion to the device's voice, text, and video chat capabilities. While the app offers many of the same features found on other platforms, it has been custom tailored to match the Vita's unique interface and take advantage of the device's gorgeous five-inch OLED display and built-in cameras.
The app is available as a free and fairly lightweight 9.2MB download, making for a quick and simple install. The initial boot up takes about 10 seconds, which is par for the course when it comes to Vita software, but remarkably slower than iOS and Android versions of the app. Those new to Skype will have to use a PC or Mac to sign up for the service, as the app only allows for username and password entry for existing users.
