Make a video call
When you make a video call (network service), 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,
pricing and subscription to video call services, contact your
network service provider.
A video call can only be made between two parties. The video
call can be made to a compatible mobile device or an ISDN
client. Video calls cannot be made while another voice, video,
or data call is active.

compatible), you are asked if you want to try a normal call
or send a message instead.
The video call is active when you see two video images,

image or a grey screen.
