The UI of WhatsApp video call is almost same as other video calling apps like Skype, Facebook Messanger, hangout etc; Call quality with WhatsApp video call is impressive and the connectivity is also faster than an application like Messanger, Hangout, and Skype but only if you have good internet speed.
In case you have a slow internet connection then voice call quality will be same like normal WhatsApp voice call but the Video will appear to blur which might get improved in later updates.
We have witnessed a lot of improvement in WhatsApp since it merges with Facebook, so they will definitely improve the video quality for slower and average internet connection in upcoming updates. Till then you should definitely give it a try if you haven’t used it yet.
Note: Your contact whom you are calling should also have a WhatsApp latest build that supports the feature to make the video calls. Please do not open any link saying it will enable the group video call on WhatsApp because it may lead to some malicious website which can harm your device.
