Few years back it was text chatting which made it as a way to communicated and stay in touch with your friends and make friends. But over the time technology has evolved into video chat and voice calls. Now you can video chat in your favourite social network, on PC and Macs, on your mobile devices and on Fring and Skype.

On the other hand, the tablet PC has ruled the gadget market in 2010 and it would be the device of the year in 2011. The video chatting feature is quickly grabbing the people attention as it provides intrusive way for chatting. It’s a fun filled and useful way to communicate; many of the tablets applications allowed video chat with multiple people and users. Though getting video chatting is very easy but there are many thing in particular which make you overall satisfied with the video chat. The parameters like video quality, voice over phone, features does count when you have device intended for video chat.

We have gone through several of the tablet devices which are best suited for the video chatting and video conferencing.

Apple iPad FaceTime

Apple iPad FaceTimeYou would love to use FaceTime app from Apple which is their specific application which works on Apple products like iPads, iPhone and iPods and Macs.

The good thing about FaceTime is that it provides the best video quality and you can connect to any Apple devices. The video interface chat and the video looked sharper.

For FaceTime you need to have an Apple ID and an email address to ready and roll. The FaceTime works directly from your Address Book. Overall its fine and good with Apple but the biggest problem is that it works only for devices which uses Wi-Fi. Secondly, Apple hasn’t made it as an platform independent and thus the use of FaceTime is limited to your friends and people who are using Apple products only.

The HP TouchPad collaborates with Skype for voice call and video calls. The Skype gets integration all over the HP TouchPad from messaging app to contact list and you can start a call from anywhere. The Skype is alsmost like a phone app that can be used for video chat.

But much to the bad luck of HP TouchPad, the rear camera has very less quality as it goes with 1.3 megapixel. Now that limits the HP TouchPad users and moreover for users to chat using Skype, they should on Skpye and so it doesn’t support cross platform video chat.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab uses Google Talk for video chatting which is one of the most used cross platform chat program available. Since it is available both in embedded from in Gmail and as a standalone installer which means that you can chat regardless of the users is on smartphone or on PC or on Apple iPhone or on other tablet.

But just a worry, Google Talk video is improving from time to time and as of now it’s under low resolution which looks bad on big screen. Looking into the future, it would be improved services with improved experience. So Samsung Galaxy Tab with Google Talk would be the future of tablets and an ideal platform for video chat.

The BlackBerry PlayBook doesn’t have an app on its own but it does include in the App World through the software update now which would relax the BlackBerry users.

The BlackBerry PlayBook video chat app has a good camera quality and the video looks good which can be stream from either the from or the rear facing side. You can only video chat with users that are on PlayBook and there are much odds that you can’t find chat buddy.
